2 Corinthians 1:8-11

8For we do not wish you to be ignorant, brethren, as to our tribulation which happened [to us] in Asia, that we were excessively pressed beyond [our] power, so as to despair even of living.

9But we ourselves had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we should not have our trust in ourselves, but in 1God who raises the dead;

10who has delivered us from so great a death, and does deliver; in whom we confide that he will also yet deliver;

11ye also labouring together by supplication for us that the gift towards us, through means of many persons, may be the subject of the thanksgiving of many for us.
