2 Corinthians 1:9-24

91IndeedG235, we hadG2192 the sentenceG610 of deathG2288 withinG1722 ourselvesG1438 soG2443 thatG2443 we would not trustG3982 in ourselvesG1438, but in GodG2316 who raisesG1453 the deadG3498, 10whoG3739 2rescuedG4506 us from soG5082 greatG5082 a danger of deathG2288, and will rescueG4506 us, He 34on whomG3739 we have setG1679 our hopeG1679. And He will yetG2089 deliverG4506 us, 11if you alsoG2532 joinG4943 inG4943 5helpingG4943 us through your prayersG1162, soG2443 thatG2443 thanksG2168 may be givenG2168 by 6manyG4183 personsG4383 inG5228 our behalfG5228 for the favorG5486 granted to us throughG1223 the prayers of manyG4183.

12For our 7proudG2746 confidenceG2746 is thisG3778: the testimonyG3142 of 8our conscienceG4893, that in holinessG41 and 9godlyG2316 sincerityG1505, 10not in fleshlyG4559 wisdomG4678 but in the graceG5485 of GodG2316, we have conductedG390 ourselves in the worldG2889, and especiallyG4056 towardG4314 you. 13For we writeG1125 nothingG3756 elseG243 to you thanG2228 whatG3739 you readG314 and understandG1921, and I hopeG1679 you will understandG1921 11untilG2193 the endG5056; 14justG2531 asG2531 you alsoG2532 partiallyG3313 did understandG1921 us, that we are your reasonG2745 toG2745 beG2745 proudG2745 as you alsoG2532 are oursG1473, on 12the dayG2250 of our LordG2962 JesusG2424.

15In thisG3778 confidenceG4006 I intendedG1014 at firstG4387 to 13comeG2064 to you, soG2443 thatG2443 you might 14twiceG1208 receiveG2192 a 1516blessingG5485; 1617that is, to 18passG1330 19your wayG1223 into 20MacedoniaG3109, and againG3825 from MacedoniaG3109 to comeG2064 to you, and by you to be 21helpedG4311 onG4311 my journeyG4311 to JudeaG2449. 17ThereforeG3767, I was not vacillatingG5530G1644 when I intendedG1014 to do thisG3778, was I? OrG2228 whatG3739 I decideG1011, do I decideG1011 22accordingG2596 to the fleshG4561, soG2443 thatG2443 with me there will be 23yesG3483, yesG3483 and noG3756, noG3756 at the same time? 18But as 24GodG2316 is faithfulG4103, 25our wordG3056 to you is not yesG3483 and noG3756. 19For 26the SonG5207 of GodG2316, ChristG5547 JesusG2424, who was preachedG2784 amongG1722 you by us--by me and 27SilvanusG4610 and 28TimothyG5095--was not yesG3483 and noG3756, but has beenG1096 yesG3483 29in Him. 20For 30as manyG3745 as the promisesG1860 of GodG2316 are, 31in Him they are yesG3483; thereforeG1352 throughG1223 Him alsoG2532 is 32our AmenG281 to the gloryG1391 of GodG2316 throughG1223 us. 21NowG1161 He who 33establishesG950 us with you in ChristG5547 and 34anointedG5548 us is GodG2316, 22who alsoG2532 35sealedG4972 us and 36gaveG1325 us the SpiritG4151 in our heartsG2588 as a 37pledgeG728.

23But 38I callG1941 GodG2316 as witnessG3144 to my soulG5590, that it was 39to spareG5339 you that I did not comeG2064 againG3765 to 40CorinthG2882. 24Not that we 41domineerG2961 overG2961 your faithG4102, but we are workersG4904 with you for your joyG5479; for in your faithG4102 you are 42standingG2476 firmG2476.
