# in order that I may take away the claim for criticizing me and the claim for which they want to boast—that they are found to be doing the same work that we are doing
# so that I may cut off the opportunity of those who want an opportunity to be found to be like us in the things they boast about
Paul speaks of a false claim that his enemies state as if it were something that he can carry away. Alternate translation: "so that they have no reason to criticize me or to boast that they are doing the same work that we are doing" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])
