2 Corinthians 6 — Context

4

But in everything making it clear that we are the servants of God, in quiet strength, in troubles, in need, in sorrow,

5

In blows, in prisons, in attacks, in hard work, in watchings, in going without food;

6

In a clean heart, in knowledge, in long waiting, in being kind, in the Holy Spirit, in true love,

7

In the true word, in the power of God; with the arms of righteousness on the right hand and on the left,

8

By glory and by shame, by an evil name and a good name; as untrue, and still true;

9

Unnoted, but still kept fully in mind; as near to death, but still living; as undergoing punishment, but not put to death;

10

As full of sorrow, but ever glad; as poor, but giving wealth to others; as having nothing, but still having all things.
