Noyes - II Corinthians - 6

6:1  As fellow-workers, then, with him, we also exhort you that ye receive not the grace of God in vain;

6:2  (for he saith: "In an accepted time I heard thee, and in the day of salvation I helped thee;" Behold, now is the accepted time, behold, now is the day of salvation;)

6:3  giving no occasion for stumbling in anything, that the ministry may not be blamed;

6:4  but as God’s ministers recommending ourselves in all things, in much endurance, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses,

6:5  in stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labors, in watchings, in fastings;

6:6  in pureness, in knowledge, in long-suffering, in kindness, in the Holy Spirit, in love unfeigned,

6:7  in the word of truth, in the power of God, by the weapons of righteousness on the right hand and on the left,

6:8  through honor and dishonor, through evil report and good report; as deceivers, and true;

6:9  as unknown, and well known; as dying, and behold, we live; as chastened, and not killed;

6:10  as sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and possessing all things.

6:11  Our mouth is open to you, O Corinthians, our heart is enlarged.

6:12  Ye have not a narrow place in my heart, but ye have a narrow place for me in yours.

6:13  So then in return, I speak to you as children, let your hearts be enlarged.

6:14  Be not strangely yoked with unbelievers; for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? Or what communion hath light with darkness?

6:15  And what concord hath Christ with Beliar? Or what part hath a believer with an unbeliever?

6:16  And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? For ye are the temple of the living God; as God said: "I will dwell among them, and walk among them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people."

6:17  "Wherefore come out from the midst of them, and be separated, saith the Lord, and touch not anything unclean;" "and I will receive you,

6:18  and will be to you a father, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty."
