2 Corinthians 1:1-7 ▼

1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and Timothy the brother, To the church of God being in Corinth, with all the saints being in all Achaia:

2 Grace to you? and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassions and God of all comfort,

4 the One comforting us in all our tribulation, for us to be able to comfort those in every tribulation through the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God,

5 because just as the sufferings of Christ abound to us, so through Christ our comfort also abounds.

6 But if we are hard pressed, it is for your? comfort and salvation; if we are comforted, it is for your? comfort, operating in the endurance of the same sufferings that we also suffer.

7 And our hope for you? is sure, knowing that as you? are fellow partakers of the sufferings, so also of the comfort.
