2 Corinthians 4:1-9 ▼

1 Therfore seinge that we have soche an office eve as mercy is come on vs we faynte not:

2 but have cast from vs the clokes of vnhonestie and walke not in craftines nether corrupte we the worde of God: but walke in open trueth and reporte oure selves to every mannes conscience in the sight of God.

3 Yf oure Gospell be yet hyd it is hid amoge them that are lost

4 in whom ye god of this worlde hath blynded the myndes of them which beleve not lest the light of ye glorious gospell of Christ which is the ymage of god shuld shyne vnto them.

5 For we preache not oure selves but Christ Iesus to be the Lorde and oure selves youre servautes for Iesus sake.

6 For it is God that commauded the light to shyne out of darcknes which hath shyned in oure hertes for to geve the light of the knowledge of the glorie of God in the face of Iesus Christ.

7 But we have this treasure in erthe vessels tha t ye excellent power of it myght appere to be of God and not of vs.

8 We are troubled on every side yet are we not with out shyft. We are in povertie: but not vtterly without somwhat.

9 We are persecuted: but are not forsake. We are cast doune: neverthelesse we perisshe not.
