2 Corinthians 1:9-24

9But we ourselves had the sentence of deathG2288 in ourselves, that we should not have our trustG3982 in ourselves, but in 1GodG2316 who raisesG1453 the deadG3498; 10who has deliveredG4506 us from so greatG5082 a deathG2288, and does deliverG4506; in whom we confide that he will alsoG2532 yet deliverG4506; 11ye alsoG2532 labouring together by supplicationG1162 for us that the giftG5486 towards us, through means of manyG4183 persons, may be the subject of the thanksgiving of manyG4183 for us. 12For our boastingG2746 isG1510 this, the testimonyG3142 of our conscienceG4893, that in simplicity and sincerityG1505 before 2GodG2316, (not in fleshlyG4559 wisdomG4678 but in 3God's graceG5485,) we have had our conversation in the worldG2889, and moreG4056 abundantly towards you. 13For we do not writeG1125 otherG243 thingsG3739 to you but what ye well knowG1921 and recognise; and I hopeG1679 that ye will recognise to the endG5056, 14evenG2532 as alsoG2532 ye have recognised us in partG3313, that we areG1510 your boastG2745, evenG2532 as ye [areG1510] ours in the dayG2250 of the LordG2962 JesusG2424. 15And with this confidenceG4006 I purposed to comeG2064 to you previously, that ye might have a secondG1208 favour; 16and to passG1330 through to MacedoniaG3109 by you, and againG3825 from MacedoniaG3109 to comeG2064 to you, and to be set forward by you to Judaea. 17Having thereforeG3767 this purposeG1011, did I then useG5530 lightness? Or what I purposeG1011, do I purposeG1011 accordingG2596 to fleshG4561, that there should beG1510 with me yea yea, and nay nay? 18NowG1161 4GodG2316 [isG1510] faithfulG4103, that our wordG3056 to you isG1510 not yea and nay. 19For the SonG5207 of 5GodG2316, JesusG2424 ChristG5547, he who has been preachedG2784 by us among you (by me and SilvanusG4610 and Timotheus), did not becomeG1096 yea and nay, but yea is in him. 20For whatever promisesG1860 of 6GodG2316 [there are], in him is the yea, and in him the amenG281, for gloryG1391 to 7GodG2316 by us. 21NowG1161 he that establishes us with you in ChristG5547, and has anointedG5548 us, [is] 8GodG2316, 22who alsoG2532 has sealedG4972 us, and givenG1325 the earnest of the SpiritG4151 in our heartsG2588. 23But I callG1941 9GodG2316 to witnessG3144 upon my soulG5590 that to spareG5339 you I have not yet comeG2064 to CorinthG2882. 24Not that we rule over your faithG4102, but areG1510 fellow-workmen of your joyG5479: for by faithG4102 ye standG2476.
