¹³ I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.

⁵ I cried unto thee, O Lord: I said, Thou art my refuge and my portion in the land of the living.

¹⁶ For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.

⁸ We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair;

⁹ Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed;

¹⁰ Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body.

¹¹ For we which live are always delivered unto death for Jesus' sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh.

¹² So then death worketh in us, but life in you.

¹³ We having the same spirit of faith, according as it is written, I believed, and therefore have I spoken; we also believe, and therefore speak;

¹⁴ Knowing that he which raised up the Lord Jesus shall raise up us also by Jesus, and shall present us with you.

³ What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee.
