6We then, as aworkers together with him, bbeseech you also cthat ye receive not the grace of God in vain. 2(For he saith, dI have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: ebehold, now is the faccepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.) 3gGiving no offence in any thing, hthat the ministry be not blamed: 4But in all things †approving ourselves as ithe ministers of God, kin much patience, in afflictions, in lmnecessities, min distresses, 5nIn stripes, nin imprisonments, ||in tumults, noin labours, oin watchings, oin pfastings; 6By pureness, by knowledge, qby longsuffering, qby kindness, by the Holy Ghost, by rlove unfeigned, 7By sthe word of truth, by tthe power of God, by uthe warmour of righteousness xon the right hand and on the left, 8By honour and ydishonour, by evil report and good report: as zdeceivers, and yet true; 9As unknown, and yet awell known; bas dying, and, behold, we live; cas chastened, and not killed; 10dAs sorrowful, yet alway rejoicing; eas poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and yet fpossessing all things.

11O ye gCorinthians, our mouth is open unto you, hour iheart is enlarged. 12Ye are not kstraitened in us, but lye are kstraitened in your own bowels. 13Now for a recompence in the same, (I speak as unto mmy children,) be ye also enlarged. 14nBe ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for owhat fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and pwhat communion qhath light with darkness? 15And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? 16And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for rye are the temple of sthe living God; as God hath said, tuI will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. 17Wherefore xcome out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, 18yAnd will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord zAlmighty.
