2(For <1063> he saith <3004> (5719)_, I have heard <1873> (5656) thee <4675> in a time <2540> accepted <1184>_, and <2532> in <1722> the day <2250> of salvation <4991> have I succoured <997> (5656) thee <4671>_: behold <2400> (5628)_, now <3568> [is] the accepted <2144> time <2540>_; behold <2400> (5628)_, now <3568> [is] the day <2250> of salvation <4991>.)
3Giving <1325> (5723) no <3367> offence <4349> in <1722> any thing <3367>_, that <3363> (0) the ministry <1248> be <3469> (0) not <3363> blamed <3469> (5686)_:
4But <235> in <1722> all <3956> [things] approving <4921> (5723) ourselves <1438> as <5613> the ministers <1249> of God <2316>_, in <1722> much <4183> patience <5281>_, in <1722> afflictions <2347>_, in <1722> necessities <318>_, in <1722> distresses <4730>_, {approving: Gr. commending}

7By <1722> the word <3056> of truth <225>_, by <1722> the power <1411> of God <2316>_, by <1223> the armour <3696> of righteousness <1343> on the right hand <1188> and <2532> on the left <710>_,
8By <1223> honour <1391> and <2532> dishonour <819>_, by <1223> evil report <1426> and <2532> good report <2162>_: as <5613> deceivers <4108>_, and <2532> [yet] true <227>_;
9As <5613> unknown <50> (5746)_, and <2532> [yet] well known <1921> (5746)_; as <5613> dying <599> (5723)_, and <2532>_, behold <2400> (5628)_, we live <2198> (5719)_; as <5613> chastened <3811> (5746)_, and <2532> not <3361> killed <2289> (5746)_;
10As <5613> sorrowful <3076> (5746)_, yet <1161> alway <104> rejoicing <5463> (5723)_; as <5613> poor <4434>_, yet <1161> making <4148> (0) many <4183> rich <4148> (5723)_; as <5613> having <2192> (5723) nothing <3367>_, and <2532> [yet] possessing <2722> (5723) all things <3956>_.
11O [ye] Corinthians <2881>_, our <2257> mouth <4750> is open <455> (5754) unto <4314> you <5209>_, our <2257> heart <2588> is enlarged <4115> (5769)_.
12Ye are <4729> (0) not <3756> straitened <4729> (5743) in <1722> us <2254>_, but <1161> ye are straitened <4729> (5743) in <1722> your own <5216> bowels <4698>_.
13Now <1161> for a recompence <489> in the same <846>_, (I speak <3004> (5719) as <5613> unto [my] children <5043>,) be <4115> (0) ye <5210> also <2532> enlarged <4115> (5682)_.
14Be ye <1096> (5737) not <3361> unequally yoked together <2086> (5723) with unbelievers <571>_: for <1063> what <5101> fellowship <3352> hath righteousness <1343> with <2532> unrighteousness <458>_? and <1161> what <5101> communion <2842> hath light <5457> with <4314> darkness <4655>_?
15And <1161> what <5101> concord <4857> hath Christ <5547> with <4314> Belial <955>_? or <2228> what <5101> part <3310> hath he that believeth <4103> with <3326> an infidel <571>_?
16And <1161> what <5101> agreement <4783> hath the temple <3485> of God <2316> with <3326> idols <1497>_? for <1063> ye <5210> are <2075> (5748) the temple <3485> of the living <2198> (5723) God <2316>_; as <2531> God <2316> hath said <2036> (5627)_, <3754> I will dwell <1774> (5692) in <1722> them <846>_, and <2532> walk in <1704> (5692) [them]; and <2532> I will be <2071> (5704) their <846> God <2316>_, and <2532> they <846> shall be <2071> (5704) my <3427> people <2992>_.
17Wherefore <1352> come out <1831> (5628) from <1537> among <3319> them <846>_, and <2532> be ye separate <873> (5682)_, saith <3004> (5719) the Lord <2962>_, and <2532> touch <680> (5732) not <3361> the unclean <169> [thing]; and <2504> I will receive <1523> (5695) you <5209>_,
18And <2532> will be <2071> (5704) <1519> a Father <3962> unto you <5213>_, and <2532> ye <5210> shall be <2071> (5704) my <3427> sons <5207> <1519> and <2532> daughters <2364>_, saith <3004> (5719) the Lord <2962> Almighty <3841>_.
