14 knowing that He who (A)raised the Lord Jesus (B)will also raise us with Jesus, and will (C)present us with you. 15 For all things are (D)for your sakes, so that grace, having [a](E)spread to more and more people, will cause thanksgiving to overflow to the glory of God.

16 Therefore we (F)do not lose heart, but though our outer person is decaying, yet our (G)inner person is (H)being renewed day by day. 17 For our momentary, (I)light affliction is producing for us an eternal weight of glory far beyond all comparison, 18 while we (J)look not 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.

16 Therefore we do not lose heart.(E) Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly(F) we are being renewed(G) day by day. 17 For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all.(H) 18 So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen,(I) since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.
