Bible in Basic English
"Unnoted, but still kept fully in mind; as near to death, but still living; as undergoing punishment, but not put to death;"
— 2 Corinthians 6:9, Bible in Basic English
“As unknown, and yet well known; as dying, and, behold, we live; as chastened, and not killed;”
“as unknown, and yet well known; as dying, and behold, we live; as chastened, and not killed; ”
“as unknown, and yet well known; as dying, and behold, we live; as punished, and not killed;”
“as unknown, and yet well-known; as dying and yet– see!– we continue to live; as those who are scourged and yet not executed;”
In a clean heart, in knowledge, in long waiting, in being kind, in the Holy Spirit, in true love,
In the true word, in the power of God; with the arms of righteousness on the right hand and on the left,
By glory and by shame, by an evil name and a good name; as untrue, and still true;
Unnoted, but still kept fully in mind; as near to death, but still living; as undergoing punishment, but not put to death;
As full of sorrow, but ever glad; as poor, but giving wealth to others; as having nothing, but still having all things.
Our mouth is open to you, O Corinthians, our heart is wide.
It is not our feelings to you which are narrow, but yours to us.
