2 Corinthians 1:7-9
English Standard Version
7 Our hope for you is unshaken, for we know that as you (A)share in our sufferings, you will also share in our comfort.
8 For we do not want you to be unaware, brothers,[a] of (B)the affliction we experienced in Asia. For we were so utterly burdened beyond our strength that we despaired of life itself. 9 Indeed, we felt that we had received the sentence of death. But that was to make us (C)rely not on ourselves (D)but on God (E)who raises the dead.
