2 Corinthians 6 King James Version 1611

From Textus Receptus

• 1 Wee then, as workers together with him, beseech you also, that ye receiue not the grace of God in vaine.
• 2 (For he saith, I haue heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of saluation haue I succoured thee: beholde, now is the accepted time, behold, now is the day of saluation)
• 3 Giuing no offence in any thing, that the ministery be not blamed:
• 4 But in all things approuing our selues, as the Ministers of God, in much patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses,
• 5 In stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labours, in watchings, in fastings,
• 6 By purenesse, by knowledge, by long suffering, by kindnesse, by the holy Ghost, by loue vnfained,
• 7 By the worde of trueth, by the power of God, by the armour of righteousnesse, on the right hand, and on the left,
• 8 By honour and dishonour, by euil report and good report, as deceiuers and yet true:
• 9 As vnknowen, & yet wel knowen: as dying, and behold, we liue: as chastened, and not killed:
• 10 As sorrowfull, yet alway reioycing: as poore, yet making many rich: as hauing nothing, and yet possessing all things.
• 11 O yee Corinthians, our mouth is open vnto you, our heart is enlarged.
• 12 Yee are not straitened in vs, but yee are straitned in your owne bowels.
• 13 Nowe for a recompense in the same, (I speake as vnto my children) be ye also inlarged.
• 14 Be ye not vnequally yoked together with vnbeleeuers: for what fellowship hath righteousnesse with vnrighteousnesse? and what communion hath light with darknesse?
• 15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that beleeueth, with an infidel?
• 16 And what agreement hath the Temple of God with idoles? for ye are the Temple of the liuing God, as God hath saide, I will dwell in them, and walke in them, and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
• 17 Wherefore come out from among them, and bee yee separate, saieth the Lord, and touch not the vncleane thing, and I will receiue you,
• 18 And will bee a Father vnto you, and ye shall bee my sonnes and daughters, saith the Lord Almightie.
