19namelyG5613, that 1GodG2316 was in ChristG5547 reconcilingG2644 the worldG2889 to HimselfG1438, 2not countingG3049 their trespassesG3900 against them, and 3He has 4committedG5087 to us the wordG3056 of reconciliationG2643.

20ThereforeG3767, we are 5ambassadorsG4243 for ChristG5547, 6as thoughG5613 GodG2316 were makingG3870 an appealG3870 throughG1223 us; we begG1189 you on behalfG5228 of ChristG5547, be 7reconciledG2644 to GodG2316. 21He madeG4160 Him who 8knewG1097 noG3361 sinG266 to be 9sinG266 on our behalfG5228, soG2443 that we might becomeG1096 the 10righteousnessG1343 of GodG2316 in Him.
