2nd Corinthians 6

CHAPTER 6

1But we helping [you in work and word] admonish [you] , that ye receive not the grace of God in vain.

2For he saith, In time well-pleasing I have heard thee, and in the day of health, I have helped thee. Lo! now a time acceptable, lo! now a day of health.

3Give we to no man any offence, [or hurting] , that our service [or ministry] be not reproved;

4but in all things give we us-selves as the ministers of God, in much patience, in tribulations, in needs, in anguishes,

5in beatings, [or scourgings] , in prisons, in dissensions within, in travails, in wakings, in fastings,

6in chastity, in knowing [or in science] , in long abiding, in sweetness, in the Holy Ghost, in charity not feigned,

7in the word of truth, in the virtue of God; by armours or arms of rightwiseness on the right half and on the left half;

8by glory and unnobleness; by evil fame and good fame; as deceivers, and true men;

9as they that be unknown and known; as men dying, and lo! we live; as chastised, and not made dead;

10as sorrowful, and evermore joying [or but evermore joying] ; as having need, but making many men rich; as nothing having, and wielding all things.

11A! ye Corinthians, our mouth is open to you, our heart is alarged;

12ye be not anguished in us, but ye be anguished in your inwardnesses [or in your entrails] .

13And I say as to sons, ye that have the same reward, be ye alarged.

14Do not ye bear the yoke with unfaithful men. For what parting, [or communing] , of rightwiseness with wickedness? or what fellowship of light to darknesses?

15and what according of Christ to Belial? or what part of a faithful [man] with the unfaithful, [or heathen] ?

16and what consent to the temple of God with maumets? [or idols?] And ye be the temple of the living God, as the Lord saith, For I shall dwell in them, and I shall walk among them; and I shall be [the] God of them, and they shall be a people to me.

17For which thing go ye out of the middle of them, and be ye separated, saith the Lord, and touch not unclean thing; and I shall receive you,

18and I shall be to you into a Father, and ye shall be to me into sons and daughters, saith the Lord almighty.
