2 Corinthians 6:3-10
21st Century King James Version
3 Give no offense in anything, that the ministry be not blamed;
4 but in all things commending ourselves as the ministers of God in much patience: in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses,
5 in stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labors, in sleeplessness, in fastings;
6 by pureness, by knowledge, by longsuffering, by kindness, by the Holy Ghost, by love unfeigned,
7 by the word of truth, by the power of God, by the armor of righteousness on the right hand and on the left;
8 through honor and dishonor, through evil report and good report; though counted as deceivers and yet true,
9 as unknown and yet well known, as dying and yet behold we live, as chastened and not killed,
10 as sorrowful yet always rejoicing; as poor yet making many rich, as having nothing and yet possessing all things.

Paul’s Hardships
3 We put no stumbling block in anyone’s path,(A) so that our ministry will not be discredited. 4 Rather, as servants of God we commend ourselves in every way: in great endurance; in troubles, hardships and distresses; 5 in beatings, imprisonments(B) and riots; in hard work, sleepless nights and hunger;(C) 6 in purity, understanding, patience and kindness; in the Holy Spirit(D) and in sincere love;(E) 7 in truthful speech(F) and in the power of God;(G) with weapons of righteousness(H) in the right hand and in the left; 8 through glory and dishonor,(I) bad report(J) and good report; genuine, yet regarded as impostors;(K) 9 known, yet regarded as unknown; dying,(L) and yet we live on;(M) beaten, and yet not killed; 10 sorrowful, yet always rejoicing;(N) poor, yet making many rich;(O) having nothing,(P) and yet possessing everything.(Q)
