Beyond an assigned limit in boasting · dominant
In 2 Corinthians 10:13, the accusative plural neuter form occurs with the refusal to boast beyond the measure of the area assigned by God. In 2 Corinthians 10:15, the same form again qualifies boasting, this time excluding boasting in the labors of others; the APB renders both clauses with "beyond limits."
In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the relevant clauses in both occurrences as boasting "beyond limits." That repeated wording confirms the clause-level contrast with a measure or limits rather than isolating a precise English equivalent.
