2 Corinthians 2:12-17

12NowG1161 when I cameG2064 to 1TroasG5174 for the 2gospelG2098 of ChristG5547 and when a 3doorG2374 was openedG455 for me in the LordG2962, 13I 4hadG2192 noG3756 restG425 for my spiritG4151, not findingG2147 5TitusG5103 my brotherG80; but 6sayingG657 goodbyeG657 to them, I wentG1831 on to 7MacedoniaG3109.

14 8But thanksG5485 be to GodG2316, who alwaysG3842 9leadsG2358 us inG2358 triumphG2358 in ChristG5547, and throughG1223 us revealsG5319 the 10fragranceG3744 of the 11knowledgeG1108 of Him in everyG3956 placeG5117. 15For we are a 12fragranceG2175 of ChristG5547 to GodG2316 amongG1722 13thoseG3588 who are being savedG4982 and amongG1722 thoseG3588 who are perishingG622: 16 14to the oneG3739 G3303 an 15aromaG3744 from deathG2288 to deathG2288, to the otherG3739 an aromaG3744 from lifeG2222 to lifeG2222. And whoG5101 is 16adequateG2425 for theseG3778 thingsG3778? 17For we are not likeG5613 the manyG4183, 17 18peddlingG2585 the wordG3056 of GodG2316, but 19as from sincerityG1505, but as from GodG2316, we speakG2980 in ChristG5547 20inG2713 theG2713 sightG2713 of GodG2316.
