2 Corinthians 6:2-10
2for He says, “1At the acceptable time I listened to you, And on the day of salvation I helped you.” Behold, now is “the acceptable time,” behold, now is “the day of salvation”-- 32giving no cause for offense in anything, so that the ministry will not be discredited, 4but in everything 3commending ourselves as 45servants of God, 6in much endurance, in afflictions, in hardships, in distresses, 5in 7beatings, in imprisonments, in 8tumults, in labors, in sleeplessness, in 9hunger, 6in purity, in 10knowledge, in 11patience, in kindness, in the 12Holy Spirit, in 13genuine love, 7in 14the word of truth, in 15the power of God; by 16the weapons of righteousness for the right hand and the left, 8by glory and 17dishonor, by 18evil report and good report; regarded as 19deceivers and yet 20true; 9as unknown 21yet well-known, as 22dying 23yet behold, 24we live; as 25punished 26yet not put to death, 10as 27sorrowful yet always 28rejoicing, as 29poor yet making many rich, as 30having nothing 31yet possessing 32all things.
