We are afflicted in every way but not crushed, perplexed but not driven to despair, persecuted but not forsaken, struck down but not destroyed, 10 always carrying around in the body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be made visible in our bodies.(A) 11 For we who are living are always being handed over to death for Jesus’s sake, so that the life of Jesus may also be made visible in our mortal flesh. 12 So death is at work in us but life in you.

13 But just as we have the same spirit of faith that is in accordance with scripture—“I believed, and so I spoke”—we also believe, and therefore we also speak,(B) 14 because we know that the one who raised Jesus[a] will also raise us with Jesus and will present us with you in his presence.(C)

  1. 4.14 Other ancient authorities read Lord Jesus

We are hard pressed on every side,(A) but not crushed; perplexed,(B) but not in despair; persecuted,(C) but not abandoned;(D) struck down, but not destroyed.(E) 10 We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus,(F) so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body.(G) 11 For we who are alive are always being given over to death for Jesus’ sake,(H) so that his life may also be revealed in our mortal body. 12 So then, death is at work in us, but life is at work in you.(I)

13 It is written: “I believed; therefore I have spoken.”[a](J) Since we have that same spirit of[b] faith,(K) we also believe and therefore speak, 14 because we know that the one who raised the Lord Jesus from the dead(L) will also raise us with Jesus(M) and present us with you to himself.(N)
