2 Corinthians 5:11-17

11KnowingG1492 thereforeG3767 the terrorG5401 of the LordG2962, we persuadeG3982 menG444; butG1161 we are made manifestG5319 to GodG2316; andG1161 I trustG1679 alsoG2532 are made manifestG5319 inG1722 yourG5216 consciencesG4893.

12ForG1063 we commendG4921 notG3756 ourselvesG1438 againG3825 to youG5213, butG235 giveG1325 youG5213 occasionG874 to gloryG2745 onG5228 ourG2257 behalfG5228, thatG2443 ye may haveG2192 somewhat toG4314 answer them who gloryG2744 inG1722 appearanceG4383, andG2532 notG3756 in heartG2588.1 13ForG1063 whetherG1535 we are beside ourselvesG1839, it is to GodG2316: or whetherG1535 we are of sound mindG4993, it is for your causeG5213. 14ForG1063 the loveG26 of ChristG5547 constrainethG4912 usG2248; because we thusG5124 judgeG2919, thatG3754 ifG1487 oneG1520 diedG599 forG5228 allG3956, thenG686 wereG599 allG3956 deadG599: 15AndG2532 that he diedG599 forG5228 allG3956, thatG2443 they who liveG2198 shouldG2198 not henceforthG3371 liveG2198 to themselvesG1438, butG235 to him who diedG599 forG5228 themG846, andG2532 rose againG1453.

16ThereforeG5620 henceforthG575G3568 weG2249 knowG1492 no manG3762 according toG2596 the fleshG4561: thoughG1499 indeedG1161, we have knownG1097 ChristG5547 according toG2596 the fleshG4561, yetG235 nowG3568 henceforthG3765 we knowG1097 him no moreG3765. 17ThereforeG5620 if any manG1536 is inG1722 ChristG5547, he is a newG2537 creationG2937: old thingsG744 have passed awayG3928; beholdG2400, all thingsG3956 have becomeG1096 newG2537.2
