2 Corinthians 5:12-15
New International Version
12 We are not trying to commend ourselves to you again,(A) but are giving you an opportunity to take pride in us,(B) so that you can answer those who take pride in what is seen rather than in what is in the heart. 13 If we are “out of our mind,”(C) as some say, it is for God; if we are in our right mind, it is for you. 14 For Christ’s love compels us, because we are convinced that one died for all, and therefore all died.(D) 15 And he died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves(E) but for him who died for them(F) and was raised again.
2 Corinthians 5:12-15
King James Version
12 For we commend not ourselves again unto you, but give you occasion to glory on our behalf, that ye may have somewhat to answer them which glory in appearance, and not in heart.
13 For whether we be beside ourselves, it is to God: or whether we be sober, it is for your cause.
14 For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead:
15 And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again.
