2 Corinthians 6:3-11
31giving no reason for taking offense in anything, so that the ministry will not be discredited, 4but in everything 2commending ourselves as 34servants of God, 5in much endurance, in afflictions, in hardships, in difficulties, 5in 6beatings, in imprisonments, in 78mob attacks, 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, and 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 and yet well known, as 21dying and yet behold, 22we are alive; as 23punished and yet not put to death, 10as 24sorrowful yet always 25rejoicing, as 26poor yet making many rich, as 27having nothing and yet possessing 28all things.
1129Our mouth 30has spoken freely to you, you Corinthians, our 31heart is opened wide.
