2 Corinthians


6:1
 We then, as workers together with him, beseech you also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain.


6:2
 (For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)


6:3
 Giving no offence in any thing, that the ministry be not blamed:


6:4
 But in all things approving ourselves as the ministers of God, in much patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses,


6:5
 In stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labours, in watchings, in fastings;


6:6
 By pureness, by knowledge, by longsuffering, by kindness, by the Holy Ghost, by love unfeigned,


6:7
 By the word of truth, by the power of God, by the armour of righteousness 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;


6:9
 As unknown, and yet well known; as dying, and, behold, we live; as chastened, and not killed;


6:10
 As sorrowful, yet alway rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and yet possessing all things.


6:11
 O ye Corinthians, our mouth is open unto you, our heart is enlarged.


6:12
 Ye are not straitened in us, but ye are straitened in your own bowels.


6:13
 Now for a recompense in the same, (I speak as unto my children,) be ye also enlarged.


6:14
 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?


6:15
 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?


6:16
 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.


6:17
 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you,


6:18
 And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.
