shine out of darkness, who
shined
in our hearts ,

that
the
exceeding
greatness
of the
power may
be
of
God ,

we are '
pressed on every
side
, yet
not straitened
; perplexed, yet
not unto
despair;

pressed on all
sides

not in

not forsaken; struck
down, but
not destroyed .

of Jesus may be manifested
in our body.
We
always carry
around
in our
body the death
of Jesus, so

are always delivered
unto
death for Jesus '
sake, that the life also
of Jesus may be manifested
in our mortal flesh

are
always consigned
to
death for Jesus ’
sake, so
that the life of Jesus may also
be revealed
in our mortal body

work
in you.

having
the
same
spirit
of
faith,
according
to
that
which
is written ,
I believed, and
therefore did
I speak;
we also believe ,
and therefore also
we
speak ;

I believed, therefore I have
spoken,”

have
the
same
spirit
of
faith
also believe and therefore speak ,
knowing that he
that
raised up
the Lord Jesus shall
raise up
us also
with Jesus ,
and shall
present us with you.
knowing that the
One
who
raised the Lord Jesus will
also
raise us with Jesus and present us with you in
His
presence
.
For
all things
`are'
for your sakes
, that the grace ,
being
multiplied
through
the
many,
may cause
the
thanksgiving to abound
unto
the glory of God.
All this
is
for your benefit
, so
that the grace that
is
extending
to
more
and
more
people
may overflow
in
thanksgiving ,
to the glory of God.
Wherefore
we faint
not ;
but
though our outward
man
is decaying
, yet our inward
man
is renewed day by day.

we do
not lose
heart.
Though our outer
self
is wasting
away
, yet our inner
self
is being
renewed day by day.
For our light affliction ,
which
is for
the
moment,
worketh
for us more
and
more
exceedingly
an eternal weight
of
glory ;

momentary
affliction is producing
for us an eternal glory that
is
far
beyond
comparison.
while
we look
not at
the
things
which
are
seen, but at
the
things
which
are
not
seen:
for the
things
which
are
seen are
temporal;
but the
things
which
are
not
seen
are
eternal.
So
we fix
our
eyes
not on
what
is
seen, but on
what
is
unseen.
For what
is
seen is
temporary,
but what
is
unseen
is
eternal.
