2 Corinthians 4:3-5

3And evenG2532 ifG1487 our 1gospelG2098 is 2veiledG2572, it is veiledG2572 3to 4thoseG3588 who are perishingG622,

4in whoseG3739 caseG1722 5the godG2316 of 6thisG3778 7worldG165 has 8blindedG5186 the mindsG3540 of the unbelievingG571 soG1519 thatG1519 9they will not seeG826 the 10lightG5462 of the gospelG2098 of the 11gloryG1391 of ChristG5547, whoG3739 is the 12imageG1504 of GodG2316.

5For we 13do not preachG2784 ourselvesG1438, but ChristG5547 JesusG2424 as LordG2962, and ourselvesG1438 as your bond-servantsG1401 14on accountG1223 of JesusG2424.
