2 Corinthians 5:14-20
ForG1063 the loveG26 of ChristG3588G5547 constrainethG4912 usG1473; becauseG3778 we thus judgeG2919, thatG3754 ifG1487 oneG1520 diedG599 forG5228 allG3956, thenG686 wereG599 allG3956 deadG599: 15AndG2532 that he diedG599 forG5228 allG3956, thatG2443 theyG3588 which liveG2198 shouldG2198 not henceforthG3371 liveG2198 unto themselvesG1438, butG235 unto himG3588 which diedG599 forG5228 themG846, andG2532 rose againG1453. 16WhereforeG5620 henceforthG3568 knowG1492 weG1473 no manG3762 afterG2596 the fleshG4561: yeaG1161, thoughG1487 we have knownG1097 ChristG5547 afterG2596 the fleshG4561, yetG235 now henceforthG3568 know weG1097 him no moreG3765. 17
ThereforeG5620 ifG1487 any manG5100 be inG1722 ChristG5547, he is a newG2537 creatureG2937: old thingsG744 are passed awayG3928; beholdG3708, all thingsG3956 are becomeG1096 newG2537. 18AndG1161 all thingsG3956 are ofG1537 GodG3588G2316, whoG3588 hath reconciledG2644 usG1473 to himselfG1438 byG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, andG2532 hath givenG1325 to usG1473 the ministryG3588G1248 of reconciliationG3588G2643; 19To witG5613, thatG3754 GodG2316 wasG1510 inG1722 Christ, reconcilingG2644 the worldG2889 unto himselfG1438, notG3361 imputingG3049 theirG846 trespassesG3588G3900 unto themG846; andG2532 hath committedG5087 untoG1722 usG1473 the wordG3588G3056 of reconciliationG3588G2643.
20Now thenG3767 we are ambassadorsG4243 forG5228 ChristG5547, as thoughG5613 GodG3588G2316 did beseechG3870 you byG1223 usG1473: we prayG1189 you inG5228 Christ’s steadG5547, be ye reconciledG2644 to GodG3588G2316.
