2 Corinthians 6:4-18

4but in everythingG3956 1commendingG4921 ourselvesG1438 as 23servantsG1249 of GodG2316, 4in muchG4183 enduranceG5281, in afflictionsG2347, in hardshipsG318, in difficultiesG4730, 5in 5beatingsG4127, in imprisonmentsG5438, in 67mobG181 attacksG181, in laborsG2873, in sleeplessnessG70, in 8hungerG3521, 6in purityG54, in 9knowledgeG1108, in 10patienceG3115, in kindnessG5544, in the 11HolyG40 SpiritG4151, in 12genuineG505 loveG26, 7in 13the wordG3056 of truthG225, and in 14the powerG1411 of GodG2316; by 15the weaponsG3696 of righteousnessG1343 for the rightG1188 handG1188 and the leftG710, 8by gloryG1391 and 16dishonorG819, by 17evilG1426 reportG1426 and goodG2162 reportG2162; regarded as 18deceiversG4108 and yet 19trueG227; 9as unknownG50 and yet wellG1921 knownG1921, as 20dyingG599 and yet beholdG2400, 21we areG2198 aliveG2198; as 22punishedG3811 and yet not putG2289 toG2289 deathG2289, 10as 23sorrowfulG3076 yetG1161 alwaysG104 24rejoicingG5463, as 25poorG4434 yetG1161 makingG4148 manyG4183 richG4148, as 26havingG2192 nothingG3367 and yet possessingG2722 27allG3956 thingsG3956.

1128Our mouthG4750 29has spokenG455 freelyG455 to you, you CorinthiansG2881, our 30heartG2588 is openedG4115 wideG4115. 12You are not restrainedG4729 31by us, but 32you are restrainedG4729 in your own 33affectionsG4698. 13NowG1161 in the sameG846 wayG846 in 34exchangeG489--I am speakingG3004 as to 35childrenG5043--openG4115 wideG4115 your hearts to us, you asG2532 wellG2532.

1436Do not be 37mismatchedG2086 with 38unbelieversG571; for whatG5101 do righteousnessG1343 and lawlessnessG458 39shareG3352 togetherG3352, orG2228 whatG5101 does lightG5457 have in commonG2842 with darknessG4655? 15OrG1161 whatG5101 40harmonyG4857 does ChristG5547 have with 41BelialG955, orG2228 42whatG5101 does a 43believerG4103 shareG3310 with an 44unbelieverG571? 16OrG1161 45whatG5101 agreementG4783 does 46the templeG3485 of GodG2316 have with idolsG1497? For we are 4748the templeG3485 of 49the livingG2198 GodG2316; justG2531 asG2531 GodG2316 saidG3004, “50I will 51dwellG1774 among them and 52walkG1704 amongG1704 them; And I will be their GodG2316, and they shall be My peopleG2992.1753ThereforeG1352, 54comeG1831 out from their midstG3319 and be separateG873,” saysG3004 the LordG2962. “And do not touchG681 what is uncleanG169; And I will welcomeG1523 you.1855And I will be a fatherG3962 to you, And you shall be 56sonsG5207 and daughtersG2364 to Me,” SaysG3004 the LordG2962 AlmightyG3841.
