2 Corinthians 6

Their Ministry Commended

1And 1workingG4903 togetherG4903 with Him, 2we alsoG2532 urgeG3870 you not to receiveG1209 3the graceG5485 of GodG2316 in vainG2756-- 2for He saysG3004, “4At a favorableG1184 timeG2540 I listenedG1873 toG1873 you, And on a dayG2250 of salvationG4991 I helpedG997 you.” BeholdG2400, nowG3568 is “a favorableG2144 timeG2540,” beholdG2400, nowG3568 is “a dayG2250 of salvationG4991”-- 35givingG1325 noG3367 reasonG4349 forG4349 taking offenseG4349 in anythingG3367, soG2443 thatG2443 the ministryG1248 will not be discreditedG3469, 4but in everythingG3956 6commendingG4921 ourselvesG1438 as 78servantsG1249 of GodG2316, 9in muchG4183 enduranceG5281, in afflictionsG2347, in hardshipsG318, in difficultiesG4730, 5in 10beatingsG4127, in imprisonmentsG5438, in 1112mobG181 attacksG181, in laborsG2873, in sleeplessnessG70, in 13hungerG3521, 6in purityG54, in 14knowledgeG1108, in 15patienceG3115, in kindnessG5544, in the 16HolyG40 SpiritG4151, in 17genuineG505 loveG26, 7in 18the wordG3056 of truthG225, and in 19the powerG1411 of GodG2316; by 20the weaponsG3696 of righteousnessG1343 for the rightG1188 handG1188 and the leftG710, 8by gloryG1391 and 21dishonorG819, by 22evilG1426 reportG1426 and goodG2162 reportG2162; regarded as 23deceiversG4108 and yet 24trueG227; 9as unknownG50 and yet wellG1921 knownG1921, as 25dyingG599 and yet beholdG2400, 26we areG2198 aliveG2198; as 27punishedG3811 and yet not putG2289 toG2289 deathG2289, 10as 28sorrowfulG3076 yetG1161 alwaysG104 29rejoicingG5463, as 30poorG4434 yetG1161 makingG4148 manyG4183 richG4148, as 31havingG2192 nothingG3367 and yet possessingG2722 32allG3956 thingsG3956.

1133Our mouthG4750 34has spokenG455 freelyG455 to you, you CorinthiansG2881, our 35heartG2588 is openedG4115 wideG4115. 12You are not restrainedG4729 36by us, but 37you are restrainedG4729 in your own 38affectionsG4698. 13NowG1161 in the sameG846 wayG846 in 39exchangeG489--I am speakingG3004 as to 40childrenG5043--openG4115 wideG4115 your hearts to us, you asG2532 wellG2532.

1441Do not be 42mismatchedG2086 with 43unbelieversG571; for whatG5101 do righteousnessG1343 and lawlessnessG458 44shareG3352 togetherG3352, orG2228 whatG5101 does lightG5457 have in commonG2842 with darknessG4655? 15OrG1161 whatG5101 45harmonyG4857 does ChristG5547 have with 46BelialG955, orG2228 47whatG5101 does a 48believerG4103 shareG3310 with an 49unbelieverG571? 16OrG1161 50whatG5101 agreementG4783 does 51the templeG3485 of GodG2316 have with idolsG1497? For we are 5253the templeG3485 of 54the livingG2198 GodG2316; justG2531 asG2531 GodG2316 saidG3004, “55I will 56dwellG1774 among them and 57walkG1704 amongG1704 them; And I will be their GodG2316, and they shall be My peopleG2992.1758ThereforeG1352, 59comeG1831 out from their midstG3319 and be separateG873,” saysG3004 the LordG2962. “And do not touchG681 what is uncleanG169; And I will welcomeG1523 you.1860And I will be a fatherG3962 to you, And you shall be 61sonsG5207 and daughtersG2364 to Me,” SaysG3004 the LordG2962 AlmightyG3841.
