2 Corinthians 4:1-7

1Therefore, having this ministryG1248, as we have had mercyG1653 shewn us, we faint not.

2But we have rejected the hidden thingsG3956 of shameG152, not walkingG4043 in deceit, nor falsifying the wordG3056 of 1GodG2316, but by manifestationG5321 of the truthG225 commendingG4921 ourselves to every conscienceG4893 of menG444 before 2GodG2316.

5For we do not preachG2784 ourselves, but ChristG5547 JesusG2424 LordG2962, and ourselves your bondmen for Jesus' sakeG1223.

6Because [it is] the 5GodG2316 who spokeG3004 that out of darknessG4655 lightG5457 should shineG2989 who has shoneG2989 in our heartsG2588 for the shining forth of the knowledgeG1108 of the gloryG1391 of 6GodG2316 in [the] faceG4383 of [Jesus] ChristG5547.

7But we have this treasureG2344 in earthenG3749 vesselsG4632, that the surpassingness of the powerG1411 may beG1510 of 7GodG2316, and not from us:
