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.
