"But if our Gospel is in some way hidden, it is hidden to those who are perishing. "
— 2 Corinthians 4:3, Catholic Public Domain Version
“But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:”
“And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled in them that perish: ”
“Even if our Good News is veiled, it is veiled in those who perish;”
“But even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled only to those who are perishing,”
“And if our gospel be also hid, it is hid to them that are lost,”
“But if our good news is veiled, it is veiled from those who are on the way to destruction:”
“But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:”
Therefore, since we have this ministry, and in as much as we have obtained mercy for ourselves, we are not inadequate.
For we renounce dishonorable and hidden acts, not walking by craftiness, nor by adulterating the Word of God. Instead, by the manifestation of truth, we commend ourselves to the conscience of each man before God.
But if our Gospel is in some way hidden, it is hidden to those who are perishing.
As for them, the god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that the light of the Gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, would not shine in them.
For we are not preaching about ourselves, but about Jesus Christ our Lord. We are merely your servants through Jesus.
For God, who told the light to shine out of darkness, has shined a light into our hearts, to illuminate the knowledge of the splendor of God, in the person of Christ Jesus.
