2 Corinthians 6:16-7:1
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God; as God saith: I will dwell in them, and walk among them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
17 Wherefore, Go out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing:
18 And I will receive you; and I will be a Father to you; and you shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.
7 Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all defilement of the flesh and of the spirit, perfecting sanctification in the fear of God.
2 Corinthians 6:16-7:1
New International Version
16 What agreement is there between the temple of God and idols?(A) For we are the temple(B) of the living God.(C) As God has said:
“I will live with them
and walk among them,
and I will be their God,
and they will be my people.”[a](D)
17 Therefore,
“Come out from them(E)
and be separate,
says the Lord.
Touch no unclean thing,
and I will receive you.”[b](F)
18 And,
7 Therefore, since we have these promises,(I) dear friends,(J) let us purify ourselves from everything that contaminates body and spirit, perfecting holiness(K) out of reverence for God.
