2 Corinthians 6:5-15 (New Revised Standard)
View In My Bible
5
beatings, imprisonments, riots, labors, sleepless nights, hunger;
6
by purity, knowledge, patience, kindness, holiness of spirit, genuine love,
7
truthful speech, and the power of God; with the weapons of righteousness for the right hand and for the left;
8
in honor and dishonor, in ill repute and good repute. We are treated as impostors, and yet are true;
9
as unknown, and yet are well known; as dying, and see—we are alive; as punished, and yet not killed;
10
as sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and yet possessing everything.
11
We have spoken frankly to you Corinthians; our heart is wide open to you.
12
There is no restriction in our affections, but only in yours.
13
In return—I speak as to children—open wide your hearts also.
14
Do not be mismatched with unbelievers. For what partnership is there between righteousness and lawlessness? Or what fellowship is there between light and darkness?
15
What agreement does Christ have with Beliar? Or what does a believer share with an unbeliever?
