Chapter 6

1


 

  We then, [as] workers together [with him], beseech [you] also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain.  

 

 

-

2


 

  (For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now [is] the accepted time; behold, now [is] the day of salvation.)  

 

 

-

3


 

  Giving no offence in any thing, that the ministry be not blamed:  

 

 

-

4


 

  But in all [things] approving ourselves as the ministers of God, in much patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses,  

 

 

-

5


 

  In stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labours, in watchings, in fastings;  

 

 

-

6


 

  By pureness, by knowledge, by longsuffering, by kindness, by the Holy Ghost, by love unfeigned,  

 

 

-

7


 

  By the word of truth, by the power of God, by the armour of righteousness on the right hand and on the left,  

 

 

-

8


 

  By honour and dishonour, by evil report and good report: as deceivers, and [yet] true;  

 

 

-

9


 

  As unknown, and [yet] well known; as dying, and, behold, we live; as chastened, and not killed;  

 

 

-

10


 

  As sorrowful, yet alway rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and [yet] possessing all things.  

 

 

-

11


 

  O [ye] Corinthians, our mouth is open unto you, our heart is enlarged.  

 

 

-

12


 

  Ye are not straitened in us, but ye are straitened in your own bowels.  

 

 

-

13


 

  Now for a recompence in the same, (I speak as unto [my] children,) be ye also enlarged.  

 

 

-

14


 

  Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?  

 

 

-

15


 

  And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?  

 

 

-

16


 

  And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in [them]; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.  

 

 

-

17


 

  Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean [thing]; and I will receive you,  

 

 

-

18


 

  And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.
