To the church of God which is in Corinth, to those who have been sanctified in Christ Jesus, saints by calling, with all who in every place call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, their Lord and ours:

I thank my God always concerning you for the grace of God which was given you in Christ Jesus,

But it is due to Him that you are in Christ Jesus, who became to us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption,

For if you were to have countless tutors in Christ, yet you would not have many fathers, for in Christ Jesus I became your father through the gospel.

I affirm, brothers and sisters, by the boasting in you which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, that I die daily.

My love be with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.
