2 Corinthians 4:4-6
4in whose case 1the god of 2this 3world has 4blinded the minds of the unbelieving 5so that they might not see the 6light of the gospel of the 7glory of Christ, who is the 8image of God. 5For we 9do not preach ourselves but Christ Jesus as Lord, and ourselves as your bond-servants 10for Jesus’ sake. 6For God, who said, “11Light shall shine out of darkness,” is the One who has 12shone in our hearts to give the 13Light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ.
