Hebrews 13:5-9
New American Standard Bible
5 Make sure that your character is (A)free from the love of money, (B)being content with what you have; for He Himself has said, “(C)I will never desert you, nor will I ever abandon you,” 6 so that we confidently say,
“(D)The Lord is my helper, I will not be afraid.
What will man do to me?”
7 Remember (E)those who led you, who spoke (F)the word of God to you; and considering the [a]result of their way of life, (G)imitate their faith. 8 (H)Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today, and forever. 9 (I)Do not be misled by varied and strange teachings; for it is good for the heart to (J)be strengthened by grace, not by (K)foods, (L)through which those who [b]were so occupied were not benefited.

Jesus, the Example
12 Therefore, since we also have such a great cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let’s (A)rid ourselves of every obstacle and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let’s (B)run with (C)endurance the race that is set before us, 2 looking only at Jesus, the [a](D)originator and perfecter of the faith, who for the joy set before Him (E)endured the cross, (F)despising the shame, and has (G)sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
3 For (H)consider Him who has endured such hostility by sinners against Himself, so that you will not grow weary [b](I)and lose heart.

2 Corinthians 5:17-21
New American Standard Bible
17 Therefore if anyone is (A)in Christ, this person is (B)a new [a]creation; (C)the old things passed away; behold, new things have come. 18 Now (D)all these things are from God, (E)who reconciled us to Himself through Christ and gave us the (F)ministry of reconciliation, 19 namely, that (G)God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, (H)not counting their wrongdoings against them, and [b]He has [c]committed to us the word of reconciliation.
20 Therefore, we are (I)ambassadors for Christ, (J)as though God were making an appeal through us; we beg you on behalf of Christ, be (K)reconciled to God. 21 He made Him who (L)knew no sin to be [d](M)sin in our behalf, so that we might become the (N)righteousness of God in Him.

New American Standard Bible
14 (A)But thanks be to God, who always (B)leads us in triumph in Christ, and through us reveals the (C)fragrance 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 [a]aroma from death to death, to the other an aroma from life to life. And who is (H)adequate for these things? 17 For we are not like the many, [b](I)peddling the word of God, but (J)as from sincerity, but as from God, we speak in Christ (K)in the sight of God.

14 But thanks be to God,(A) who always leads us as captives in Christ’s triumphal procession and uses us to spread the aroma(B) of the knowledge(C) of him everywhere. 15 For we are to God the pleasing aroma(D) of Christ among those who are being saved and those who are perishing.(E) 16 To the one we are an aroma that brings death;(F) to the other, an aroma that brings life. And who is equal to such a task?(G) 17 Unlike so many, we do not peddle the word of God for profit.(H) On the contrary, in Christ we speak before God with sincerity,(I) as those sent from God.(J)
