1Working together but also we exhort, not in vain the favor of the God to receive you; 2(he says for: In a season acceptable I listened to thee and in a day of salvation I helped thee. Lo, now a season well accepted, lo, now a day of salvation.) 3No one in any thing giving offence, so that not may be blamed the service; 4but in every thing establishing ourselves as of God servants, in patience much, in affliction, in necessities, in distresses, 5in stripes, in prisons, in tumults, in labors, in watchings, in fastings; 6in purity, in knowledge, in long–suffering, in kindness, in spirit holy, in love unfeigned, 7in a word of truth, in power of God; through the arms of the righteousness of the rights and of lefts, 8through glory and disgrace, through bad fame and good fame; and deceivers and true; 9as being ignorant, and being duly appreciated; as dying, and lo we live; as being corrected, and not put to death; 10as being grieved, always but rejoicing; as poor, many but making rich; as nothing having; and all things possessing. 11The mouth of us has been opened to you, O Corinthians, the heart of us has been enlarged. 12Not you are straitened in us; you are straitened but in the bowels of you. 13The but same recompense, (as to children I speak,) be enlarged also you. 14Not be you unequally yoking with unbelievers; what for participation righteousness and lawlessness? what and fellowship light with darkness? 15What and agreement of an Anointed with Belial? or what portion to a believer with an unbeliever? 16what and connection a temple of God with idols? You for a temple of God are living; as said the God: That I will in dwell among them, and will walk about in; and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people. 17Wherefore come you out from midst of them and be you separated, says Lord, and of an unclean thing not touch you; and I will receive you, 18and I will be to you for a Father, and you shall be to me for sons and daughters, says Lord Almighty.
