⁹ as unknown, and ^(A)yet well known; ^(B)as dying, and behold we live; ^(C)as chastened, and yet not killed;

^10 (A)always carrying about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, ^(B)that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our body. ¹¹ For we who live ^(C)are always delivered to death for Jesus’ sake, that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our mortal flesh.

⁹ For I think that God has displayed us, the apostles, last, as men condemned to death; for we have been made a ^(A)spectacle ^[a]to the world, both to angels and to men.

³⁶ As it is written:

⁶ Even though ^(A)I am untrained in speech, yet I am not ^(B)in knowledge. But ^(C)we have ^[a]been thoroughly manifested among you in all things.

Delivered from Suffering

⁸ For we do not want you to be ignorant, brethren, of ^(A)our ^[a]trouble which came to us in Asia: that we were burdened beyond measure, above strength, so that we despaired even of life. ⁹ Yes, we had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we should ^(B)not trust in ourselves but in God who raises the dead, ^10 (C)who delivered us from so great a death, and ^[b]does deliver us; in whom we trust that He will still deliver us,

²² And I was unknown by face to the churches of Judea which ^(A)were in Christ. ²³ But they were ^(B)hearing only, “He who formerly ^(C)persecuted us now preaches the faith which he once tried to destroy.” ²⁴ And they ^(D)glorified God in me.

¹¹ Knowing, therefore, ^(A)the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are well known to God, and I also trust are well known in your consciences.

² But we have renounced the hidden things of shame, not walking in craftiness nor ^[a]handling the word of God deceitfully, but by manifestation of the truth ^(A)commending ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of God.
