1 And working together, we also beseech, lest also ye receive the grace of God in vain. 2 (For he says, In an acceptable time I listened to thee, and in the day of salvation have I run to succor thee: behold, now the acceptable time; behold; now the day of salvation.) 3 Giving no offence in any thing, that the service be not blamed: 4 But in every thing recommending ourselves as servants of God, in much patience, in pressures, in necessities, in extremities, 5 In blows, in imprisonments, in disorders, in fatigues, in watchings, in fastings; 6 In purity, in knowledge, in long suffering, in kindness, in the Holy Spirit, in love unfeigned. 7 In the word of truth, in the power of God, through the weapons of justice of the right hands and the left, 8 Through glory and ignominy, through slander and applause: as erring, and true; 9 As being ignorant, and knowing; as dying, and, behold, we live; as being disciplined, and not killed; 10 As being grieved, and always rejoicing; as poor, and making many rich; as having nothing, and possessing all things. 2 Corinthians 6:1-10, Smith's Literal Translation.
