The New Testament: An Expanded Translation is unavailable, but you can change that!

Unlike other versions of the New Testament, this translation uses as many English words as are necessary to bring out the richness, force, and clarity of the Greek Text. Intended as a companion to, or commentary on, the standard translations, Wuest's "expanded translation" follows the Greek word order and especially reflects emphases and contrasts indicated by the original text.

For we do not desire you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning our affliction which came to us in Asia, that we were weighed down beyond our power so that we despaired even of living. But we ourselves have had the answer of death in ourselves and at this time still have that experience, in order that we should not be trusting in ourselves but in the God who raises the dead; who delivered us out of so great a death and will deliver us, on whom we have placed our hope and right now still maintain
2 Corinthians 1:8–11
