2 Corinthians 6:1-10 (Epistle)

1
We then, as workers together with Him also plead with you not to receive the grace of God in vain.
2
For He says: “In an acceptable time I have heard You, and in the day of salvation I have helped You.” Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.
3
We give no offense in anything, that our ministry may not be blamed.
4
But in all things we commend ourselves as ministers of God: in much patience, in tribulations, in needs, in distresses,
5
in stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labors, in sleeplessness, in fastings;
6
by purity, by knowledge, by longsuffering, by kindness, by the Holy Spirit, by sincere love,
7
by the word of truth, by the power of God, by the armor of righteousness on the right hand and on the left,
8
by honor and dishonor, 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 yet not killed;
10
as sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and yet possessing all things.
