II CORINTHIANS ยท Chapter 6
6:1 We then, as workers together with him, plead to you also that all
of you receive not the grace of God in vain.
6:2 (For he says, I have heard you in a time accepted, and in the day
of salvation have I helped you: behold, now is the accepted time; behold,
now is the day of salvation.)
6:3 Giving no offence in any thing, that the ministry be not blamed:
6:4 But in all things approving ourselves as the ministers of God,
in much patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses,
6:5 In stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labours, in watchings,
in fastings;
6:6 By pureness, by knowledge, by longsuffering, by kindness, by the
Holy Spirit, by love sincere,
6:7 By the word of truth, by the power of God, by the armour
of righteousness on the right hand and on the left,
6:8 By honour and dishonour, by evil report and good report: as deceivers,
and yet true;
6:9 As unknown, and yet well known; as dying, and, behold, we live;
as chastened, and not killed;
6:10 As sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich;
as having nothing, and yet possessing all things.
6:11 O all of you Corinthians, our mouth is open unto you, our heart
is enlarged.
6:12 All of you are not straitened in us, but all of you are straitened
in your own bowels.
6:13 Now for a recompence in the same, (I speak as unto my children,)
be all of you also enlarged.
6:14 Be all of you not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for
what fellowship has righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion
has light with darkness?
6:15 And what concord has Christ with Belial? or what part has he that
believes with an infidel?
6:16 And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? for all of
you are the temple of the living God; as God has said, I will dwell in
them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
6:17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be all of you separate,
says the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you.
6:18 And will be a Father unto you, and all of you shall be my sons
and daughters, says the Lord Almighty.
