2 Corinthians 6:3-10
English Standard Version
3 We (A)put no obstacle in anyone's way, so that no fault may be found with our ministry, 4 but (B)as servants of God we commend ourselves in every way: (C)by great endurance, (D)in afflictions, (E)hardships, calamities, 5 (F)beatings, imprisonments, (G)riots, labors, sleepless nights, hunger; 6 (H)by purity, (I)knowledge, patience, kindness, (J)the Holy Spirit, (K)genuine love; 7 by (L)truthful speech, and (M)the power of God; with (N)the weapons of righteousness for the right hand and for the left; 8 through honor and dishonor, (O)through slander and praise. We are treated as impostors, and yet are true; 9 as unknown, and (P)yet well known; (Q)as dying, and behold, we live; (R)as punished, and yet not killed; 10 (S)as sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; (T)as poor, yet making many rich; (U)as having nothing, (V)yet possessing everything.

Lexham English Bible
3 We are giving no one an occasion for taking offense in anything, in order that our ministry will not have fault found with it, 4 but commending ourselves as servants of God in every way, in much endurance, in afflictions, in distresses, in difficulties, 5 in beatings, in prisons, in disturbances, in troubles, in sleepless nights, in going hungry, 6 in purity, in knowledge, in patience, in kindness, in the Holy Spirit, in love without hypocrisy, 7 in the word of truth, in the power of God, with the weapons of righteousness for the right hand and left hand, 8 through glory and dishonor, through slander and good repute, regarded as deceivers and yet truthful, 9 as unknown and yet known completely, as dying, and behold, we go on living, as disciplined, and yet not put to death, 10 as grieving, but always rejoicing, as poor, but making many rich, as having nothing, and possessing everything.
