6 Thus de as coworkers synergeō with him, · kai we urge parakaleō you hymeis not mē to receive dechomai the ho grace charis of ho God theos in eis vain kenos. 2 For gar he says legō, “ In the time kairos of my favor dektos I heard epakouō you sy, · kai in en the day hēmera of salvation sōtēria I helped boētheō you sy.” Behold idou, now nyn is the acceptable euprosdektos time kairos; behold idou, now nyn is the day hēmera of salvation sōtēria! 3 We do didōmi not mēdeis put didōmi a stumbling block proskopē in en anyone’ s mēdeis way , so that hina our ho ministry diakonia may not mē be faulted mōmaomai. 4 Rather alla, as hōs servants diakonos of God theos, we commend synistēmi ourselves heautou in en every pas way : in en great polys endurance hypomonē, in en times of affliction thlipsis, hardship anankē, and distress stenochōria; 5 in en beatings plēgē, in en imprisonments phylakē, in en riots akatastasia, in en labors kopos, in en times of sleeplessness agrypnia and hunger nēsteia; 6 by en purity hagnotēs, by en knowledge gnōsis, by en patience makrothumia, by en kindness chrēstotēs, by en the Holy hagios Spirit pneuma, by en sincere anypokritos love agapē; 7 by en the word logos of truth alētheia, by en the power dynamis of God theos; with dia the ho weapons hoplon of ho righteousness dikaiosynē both for the ho right dexios hand and kai for the left aristeros; 8 through dia glory doxa and kai dishonor atimia, through dia slander dysphēmia and kai praise euphēmia; as hōs deceivers planos, and kai yet true alēthēs men ; 9 as hōs unknown agnoeō, and kai yet well-known epiginōskō; as hōs dying apothnēskō, and kai yet — look idou!— we continue to live zaō; as hōs scourged paideuō, and kai yet not mē killed thanatoō; 10 as hōs sorrowing lypeō, yet de always aei rejoicing chairō; as hōs poor ptōchos, yet de making many polys rich ploutizō; as hōs having echō nothing mēdeis, and kai yet possessing katechō everything pas. 11 We have opened anoigō · ho our hēmeis mouth stoma freely to pros you hymeis, Corinthians Korinthios; · ho our hēmeis heart kardia has been opened wide platynō. 12 We are not ou withholding stenochōreō our hēmeis affection splanchnon from you , but de you are withholding stenochōreō yours hymeis from us. · ho 13 · ho Now de as a fair autos exchange antimisthia— I speak legō as hōs to children teknon— open wide platynō your hymeis hearts to us also kai.

2 Corinthians 6
Amplified Bible
Their Ministry Commended
6 Working together with Him, we strongly urge you not to receive God’s grace in vain [by turning away from sound doctrine and His merciful kindness]. 2 For He says,
“At the acceptable time (the time of grace) I listened to you,
And I helped you on the day of salvation.”
Behold, now is “the acceptable time,” behold, now is “the day of salvation”—(A)
3 we put no obstruction in anyone’s path, so that the ministry will not be discredited, 4 but we commend ourselves in every way as servants of God: in great endurance, in sufferings, in hardships, in distresses, 5 in beatings, in imprisonments, in riots, in labors, in sleepless nights, in hunger, 6 in purity and sincerity, in knowledge and spiritual insight, in patience, in kindness, in the Holy Spirit, in genuine love, 7 in [speaking] the word of truth, in the power of God; by the weapons of righteousness for the right hand [like holding the sword to attack] and for the left [like holding the shield to defend], 8 amid glory and dishonor; by evil report and good report; branded as deceivers and yet [vindicated as] truthful; 9 as unknown [to the world], yet well-known [by God and His people]; as dying, yet we live; as punished, yet not killed; 10 as sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; as poor, yet bestowing riches on many; as having nothing, yet possessing all things.
11 We are speaking freely to you, Corinthians [we are keeping nothing back], and our heart is opened wide.(B) 12 There is no limit to our affection for you, but you are limited in your own affection [for us]. 13 Now in the same way as a fair exchange [for our love toward you]—I am speaking as [I would] to children—open wide [your hearts] to us also.
14 Do not be unequally bound together with unbelievers [do not make mismatched alliances with them, inconsistent with your faith]. For what partnership can righteousness have with lawlessness? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness? 15 What harmony can there be between Christ and Belial (Satan)? Or what does a believer have in common with an unbeliever? 16 What agreement is there between the temple of God and idols? For we are the temple of the living God; just as God said:
“I will dwell among them and walk among them;
And I will be their God, and they shall be My people.(C)
17
“So come out from among unbelievers and be separate,” says the Lord,
“And do not touch what is unclean;
And I will graciously receive you and welcome you [with favor],(D)
18
And I will be a Father to you,
And you will be My sons and daughters,”
Says the Lord Almighty.(E)
