6:4. But in all things let us exhibit ourselves as the ministers of God,
in much patience, in tribulation, in necessities, in distresses,
6:5. In stripes, in prisons, in seditions, in labours, in watchings, in
fastings,
6:6. In chastity, in knowledge, in longsuffering, in sweetness, in the
Holy Ghost, in charity unfeigned,
6:7. In the word of truth, in the power of God: by the armour of justice
on the right hand and on the left:
6:8. By honour and dishonour: by evil report and good report: as
deceivers and yet true: as unknown and yet known:
6:9. As dying and behold we live: as chastised and not killed:
6:10. As sorrowful, yet always rejoicing: as needy, yet enriching many:
as having nothing and possessing all things.
6:11. Our mouth is open to you, O ye Corinthians: our heart is enlarged.
6:12. You are not straitened in us: but in your own bowels you are
straitened.
6:13. But having the same recompense (I speak as to my children): be you
also enlarged.
6:14. Bear not the yoke with unbelievers. For what participation hath
justice with injustice? Or what fellowship hath light with darkness?
6:15. And what concord hath Christ with Belial? Or what part hath the
faithful with the unbeliever?
6:16. And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? For you are
the temple of the living God: as God saith: I will dwell in them and
walk among them. And I will be their God: and they shall be my people.
6:17. Wherefore: Go out from among them and be ye separate, saith the
Lord, and touch not the unclean thing:
6:18. And I will receive you. And will be a Father to you: and you shall
be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.
2 Corinthians Chapter 7
The apostle's affection for the Corinthians. His comfort and joy on
their account.
7:1. Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse
ourselves from all defilement of the flesh and of the spirit, perfecting
sanctification in the fear of God.
7:2. Receive us. We have injured no man: we have corrupted no man: we
have overreached no man.
7:3. I speak not this to your condemnation. For we have said before that
you are in our hearts: to die together and to live together.
7:4. Great is my confidence for you: great is my glorying for you. I am
filled with comfort: I exceedingly abound with joy in all our
tribulation.
7:5. For also, when we were come into Macedonia, our flesh had no rest:
but we suffered all tribulation. Combats without: fears within.
7:6. But God, who comforteth the humble, comforted us by the coming of
Titus.
7:7. And not by his coming only, but also by the consolation wherewith
he was comforted in you, relating to us your desire, your mourning, your
zeal for me: so that I rejoiced the more.
7:8. For although I made you sorrowful by my epistle, I do not repent.
And if I did repent, seeing that the same epistle (although but for a
time) did make you sorrowful,
7:9. Now I am glad: not because you were made sorrowful, but because you
were made sorrowful unto penance. For you were made sorrowful according
to God, that you might suffer damage by us in nothing.
