Sha'ul�s Second Letter to the Corinthians, Chapter 4
{4:1} Therefore seeing we have this ministry, even as we obtained
mercy, we don't faint. {4:2} But we have renounced the hidden things
of shame, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God
deceitfully; but by the manifestation of the truth commending
ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God. {4:3} Even if
our Good News is veiled, it is veiled in those who perish; {4:4} in
whom the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelieving,
that the light of the Good News of the glory of Messiah, who is the
image of God, should not dawn on them. {4:5} For we don't preach
ourselves, but Messiah Yeshua as Lord, and ourselves as your servants
for Yeshua' sake. {4:6} Seeing it is God who said, "Light will shine
out of darkness," who shined in our hearts, to give the light of the
knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Yeshua the Messiah. {4:7}
But we have this treasure in clay vessels, that the exceeding
greatness of the power may be of God, and not from ourselves. {4:8} We
are pressed on every side, yet not crushed; perplexed, yet not to
despair; {4:9} pursued, yet not forsaken; struck down, yet not
destroyed; {4:10} always carrying in the body the putting to death of
the Lord Yeshua, that the life of Yeshua may also be revealed in our
body. {4:11} For we who live are always delivered to death for Yeshua'
sake, that the life also of Yeshua may be revealed in our mortal
flesh. {4:12} So then death works in us, but life in you. {4:13} But
having the same spirit of faith, according to that which is written,
"I believed, and therefore I spoke." We also believe, and therefore
also we speak; {4:14} knowing that he who raised the Lord Yeshua will
raise us also with Yeshua, and will present us with you. {4:15} For
all things are for your sakes, that the grace, being multiplied
through the many, may cause the thanksgiving to abound to the glory of
God. {4:16} Therefore we don't faint, but though our outward man is
decaying, yet our inward man is renewed day by day. {4:17} For our
light affliction, which is for the moment, works for us more and more
exceedingly an eternal weight of glory; {4:18} while we don't look at
the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For
the things which are seen are temporal, but the things which are not
seen are eternal.
