2 Corinthians 1
|
- 1:1
Paul, an
apostle of
Jesus
Christ
by the
will of
God,
and
Timothy our
brother, unto the
church of
God
which
is
at
Corinth,
with
all the
saints
which
are
in
all
Achaia:
|
- 1:2
Grace be to
you
and
peace
from
God
our
Father,
and from the
Lord
Jesus
Christ.
|
- 1:3
Blessed be
God,
even the
Father of
our
Lord
Jesus
Christ, the
Father of
mercies,
and the
God of
all
comfort;
|
- 1:4
Who
comforteth
us
in
all
our
tribulation,
that
we may be
able to
comfort them which are
in
any
trouble,
by the
comfort
wherewith
we
ourselves are
comforted
of
God.
|
- 1:5
For
as the
sufferings of
Christ
abound
in
us,
so
our
consolation
also
aboundeth
by
Christ.
|
- 1:6
And
whether we be
afflicted, it is
for
your
consolation
and
salvation,
which is
effectual
in the
enduring of the
same
sufferings
which
we
also
suffer: or
whether we be
comforted, it is
for
your
consolation
and
salvation.
|
- 1:7
And
our
hope
of
you is
stedfast,
knowing,
that
as ye
are
partakers of the
sufferings,
so shall ye be
also of the
consolation.
|
- 1:8
For we
would
not,
brethren,
have
you
ignorant
of
our
trouble
which
came to
us
in
Asia,
that we were
pressed
out of
measure,
above
strength,
insomuch that
we
despaired
even of
life:
|
- 1:9
But
we
had the
sentence of
death
in
ourselves,
that we
should
not
trust
in
ourselves
*,
but
in
God
which
raiseth the
dead:
|
- 1:10
Who
delivered
us
from so
great a
death,
and doth
deliver:
in
whom we
trust
that he
will
*
yet
deliver us;
|
- 1:11
Ye
also helping
together by
prayer
for
us,
that for the
gift bestowed
upon
us
by the means of
many
persons thanks may
be
given
by
many on our
behalf.
|
- 1:12
For
our
rejoicing
is
this, the
testimony of
our
conscience,
that
in
simplicity
and
godly
sincerity,
not
with
fleshly
wisdom,
but
by the
grace of
God, we have had our
conversation
in the
world,
and more
abundantly
to
you-ward.
|
- 1:13
For we
write
none other
things unto
you,
than
*
what ye
read
or
*
acknowledge;
and I
trust
* ye shall
acknowledge
even
to the
end;
|
- 1:14
As
also ye have
acknowledged
us
in
part,
that we
are
your
rejoicing, even
as
ye
also are
ours
in the
day of the
Lord
Jesus.
|
- 1:15
And in
this
confidence I was
minded to
come
unto
you
before,
that ye might
have a
second
benefit;
|
- 1:16
And to
pass
by
you
into
Macedonia,
and to
come
again out
of
Macedonia
unto
you,
and
of
you to be brought on my
way
toward
Judaea.
|
- 1:17 When
I
therefore
was
thus
minded, did I
use
*
*
lightness?
or the things
that I
purpose, do I
purpose
according to the
flesh,
that
with
me there should
be
yea
yea,
and
nay
nay?
|
- 1:18
But as
God is
true
*,
our
word
toward
you
was
not
yea
and
nay.
|
- 1:19
For the
Son of
God,
Jesus
Christ,
who was
preached
among
you
by
us, even
by
me
and
Silvanus
and
Timotheus,
was
not
yea
and
nay,
but
in
him
was
yea.
|
- 1:20
For
all the
promises of
God
in
him are
yea,
and
in
him
Amen,
unto the
glory of
God
by
us.
|
- 1:21
Now he which
stablisheth
us
with
you
in
Christ,
and hath
anointed
us, is
God;
|
- 1:22
Who
hath
also
sealed
us,
and
given the
earnest of the
Spirit
in
our
hearts.
|
- 1:23
Moreover
I
call
God for a
record
upon
my
soul,
that to
spare
you I
came not as
yet
unto
Corinth.
|
- 1:24
Not for
that we have dominion
over
your
faith,
but
are
helpers of
your
joy:
for by
faith ye
stand.
