King James Version KJV
New International Version NIV
4 But in all things approving ourselves as the ministers of God, in much patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses,
4
Rather, as servants of God we commend ourselves in every way: in great endurance; in troubles, hardships and distresses;
5 In stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labours, in watchings, in fastings;
5
in beatings, imprisonments and riots; in hard work, sleepless nights and hunger;
6 By pureness, by knowledge, by longsuffering, by kindness, by the Holy Ghost, by love unfeigned,
6
in purity, understanding, patience and kindness; in the Holy Spirit and in sincere love;
7 By the word of truth, by the power of God, by the armour of righteousness on the right hand and on the left,
7
in truthful speech and in the power of God; with weapons of righteousness in the right hand and in the left;
8 By honour and dishonour, by evil report and good report: as deceivers, and yet true;
8
through glory and dishonor, bad report and good report; genuine, yet regarded as impostors;
9 As unknown, and yet well known; as dying, and, behold, we live; as chastened, and not killed;
9
known, yet regarded as unknown; dying, and yet we live on; beaten, and yet not killed;
10 As sorrowful, yet alway rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and yet possessing all things.
10
sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; poor, yet making many rich; having nothing, and yet possessing everything.
