¶ We then, as workers together with him, exhort you also that ye have not received the grace of God in vain.
(For he saith, I have heard thee in an acceptable time, and in the day of saving health I have succoured thee; behold, now is the acceptable time; behold, now is the day of saving health.)
Giving no offense in anything, that the ministry not be blamed,
But in all things showing ourselves as the ministers of God in much patience, in tribulations, in necessities, in distresses,
in stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labours, in watchings, in fastings,
in chastity, in knowledge, in meekness, in kindness, in the Holy Spirit, in unfeigned charity,
in the word of truth, in the power of God through the weapons of righteousness on the right hand and on the left,
through honour and dishonour, through evil report and good report; as deceivers, and yet as men of the truth;
as unknown, and yet well known; as dying, but, behold, we live; as chastened, but not killed;
as sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and yet possessing all things.
