2 Corinthians Chapter 6

            6:1And working-together (with him), wealso└urge you not to-have-received the grace of-[the] God in vain. 2 For he-says,

                        “At (the/an( acceptable time I-listened-to you,

                                    and in/on (the/a) day of-salvation I-helped you.”

            Behold, now (is the) ‘acceptable time’; now is ‘(the) day of-salvation’; 3 giving no cause-of-offence in anything, in-order-that the ministry maynot└be-found-fault-with, 4 but in everything try-to-commend ourselves as minsters, in all endurance, in afflictions, in hardships, in distresses, 5 in beatings, in imprisonments, in mob-violences, in labors, in sleeplessnesses, in hungers, 6 in purity, in knowledge, in patience, in kindness, in (the/a) holy spirit/Holy Spirit, in love unhypocritical, 7 in (the) word of-truth, in (the) power of-God, through the weapons of-[the] righteousness for/in/of-the right (hand) and left (hand), 8 through glory and disrespect, through evil-report and good-report, as deceitful and true, 9 as known and well-known, as dying and, behold, we-are-alive, as punished and not put-to-death, 10 as grieved but always rejoicing, as poor but enriching many, as having nothing and owning all-things.

            11 The mouth of-us opened to you, Corinthians; the heart of-us has-been-opened-wide. 12 You-are┘not└restrained by us, but you-are-restrained by the bowels of-you. 13 Now with-respect-to the same response—I-am-speaking as to children—you also open-wide.

            14 Donot└become unequally-yoked with-disbelievers. For what partnership (is there) to-righteousness and lawlessness, or what fellowship (is there) to-light with darkness? 15 And what harmony (is there) of-Christ with Belial, or what part (is there) to-(a)-believer with (an) disbeliever? 16 And what agreement (is) to-(the)-sanctuary of-God with idols? For we are God’s living sanctuary, even-as [the] God said [that],

                        “‘I-will-live among them and walk-among (them),

And I-will-be (the) God of-them,

And they will-be (the) people of-me.

17                     Wherefore, come-out from (the) midst of-them,

And be separate,’ says (the) Lord,

‘And do┘not└touch (the) unclean-thing,

And-I will-welcome you,

18                     And I-will-be to-you [for] (a) Father,
