Legacy Standard Bible
14 (A)But thanks be to God, who always (B)leads us in triumphal procession in Christ, and manifests through us the (C)aroma of the (D)knowledge of Him in every place. 15 For we are a (E)fragrance of Christ to God among (F)those who are being saved and among those who are perishing; 16 (G)to the one an aroma from death to death, to the other an aroma from life to life. And who is (H)sufficient for these things? 17 For we are not like many, [a](I)peddling the word of God, but (J)as from sincerity, but as from God, (K)in the sight of God, we speak in Christ.
