2 Corinthians 6:8-18 ▼

8 By honour and dishonour, by euyll report and good report, as deceauers and yet true,

9 As vnknowen, and yet knowen, as dying, and beholde we lyue, as chastened, and not kylled,

10 As sorowyng, and yet alway merie: as poore, and yet make many riche: as hauyng nothyng, and yet possessyng all thynges.

11 O ye Corinthians, our mouth is open vnto you, our heart is made large:

12 Ye are in no strayte in vs, but are in a straite in your owne bowels.

13 I promise you lyke rewarde as vnto children: Set your selues at large,

14 And beare not ye a straunge yoke with the vnbeleuers. For what felowship hath righteousnesse with vnrighteousnesse? Or what communion hath lyght with darkenesse?

15 Or what concorde hath Christe with belyall? Eyther what part hath he that beleueth, with an infidell?

16 Or howe agreeth the temple of God with images? For ye are the temple of the lyuing God, as saide God, I wyll dwell in them, & walke in them & wyll be their God, & they shalbe my people.

17 Wherfore come out fro among them, and separate your selues from them (saith the Lorde) and touche none vncleane thyng, and I wyll receaue you,

18 And wyll be a father vnto you, and ye shalbe my sonnes and daughters, saith the Lorde almightie.
