2For he says, “At an acceptable time I listened to you. In a day of salvation I helped you.” Behold, now is the acceptable time. Behold, now is the day of salvation.

3We give no occasion of stumbling in anything, that our service may not be blamed,

4but in everything commending ourselves as servants of God: in great endurance, in afflictions, in hardships, in distresses,

7in the word of truth, in the power of God, by the armor of righteousness on the right hand and on the left,

8by glory and dishonor, by evil report and good report, as deceivers and yet true,

10as sorrowful yet always rejoicing, as poor yet making many rich, as having nothing and yet possessing all things.

11Our mouth is open to you, Corinthians. Our heart is enlarged.

12You are not restricted by us, but you are restricted by your own affections.

14Don’t be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship do righteousness and iniquity have? Or what fellowship does light have with darkness?

15What agreement does Christ have with Belial? Or what portion does a believer have with an unbeliever?

16What agreement does a temple of God have with idols? For you are a temple of the living God. Even as God said, “I will dwell in them and walk in them. I will be their God and they will be my people.”
