2CO-1:1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God,
and Timothy [our]
brother, unto the church of God which is at Corinth, with all
the saints which
are in all Achaia:
2CO-1:2 Grace [be] to you and peace from God our Father, and
[from] the Lord
Jesus Christ.
2CO-1:3 Blessed [be] God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus
Christ, the Father
of mercies, and the God of all comfort;
2CO-1:4 Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may
be able to
comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith
we ourselves
are comforted of God.
2CO-1:5 For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our
consolation also
aboundeth by Christ.
2CO-1:6 And whether we be afflicted, [it is] for your
consolation and
salvation, which is effectual in the enduring of the same
sufferings which we
also suffer: or whether we be comforted, [it is] for your
consolation and
salvation.
2CO-1:7 And our hope of you [is] stedfast, knowing, that as ye
are partakers
of the sufferings, so [shall ye be] also of the consolation.
2CO-1:8 For we would not, brethren, have you ignorant of our
trouble which
came to us in Asia, that we were pressed out of measure, above
strength,
insomuch that we despaired even of life:
2CO-1:9 But we had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we
should not
trust in ourselves, but in God which raiseth the dead:
2CO-1:10 Who delivered us from so great a death, and doth
deliver: in whom we
trust that he will yet deliver [us];
2CO-1:11 Ye also helping together by prayer for us, that for
the gift
[bestowed] upon us by the means of many persons thanks may be
given by many on
our behalf.
2CO-1:12 For our rejoicing is this, the testimony of our
conscience, that in
simplicity and godly sincerity, not with fleshly wisdom, but by
the grace of
God, we have had our conversation in the world, and more
abundantly to
you-ward.
2CO-1:13 For we write none other things unto you, than what ye
read or
acknowledge; and I trust ye shall acknowledge even to the end;
2CO-1:14 As also ye have acknowledged us in part, that we are
your rejoicing,
even as ye also [are] ours in the day of the Lord Jesus.
2CO-1:15 And in this confidence I was minded to come unto you
before, that ye
might have a second benefit;
2CO-1:16 And to pass by you into Macedonia, and to come again
out of Macedonia
unto you, and of you to be brought on my way toward Judaea.
2CO-1:17 When I therefore was thus minded, did I use lightness?
or the things
that I purpose, do I purpose according to the flesh, that with
me there should
be yea yea, and nay nay?
2CO-1:18 But [as] God [is] true, our word toward you was not
yea and nay.
2CO-1:19 For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached
among you by us,
[even] by me and Silvanus and Timotheus, was not yea and nay,

2CO-1:20 For all the promises of God in him [are] yea, and in
