We
have
spoken
freely
to you, Corinthians. Our hearts
are
open
wide
.
Our
mouth
is
open
to you, Corinthians. Our heart

enlarged
.
It
is
not our
affection
, but yours,
that
is
restrained
.
You
are
not restricted
by
us
, but you
are
restricted
by
your
own
affections
.
As
a
fair
exchange
, I ask
you
as my children :

also
.
Now
in
return
, I speak
as to
my children ,
you

For what partnership
can
righteousness
have with
wickedness
? Or what fellowship
does
light have
with darkness?
Don't
be unequally yoked with unbelievers ,

Christ and
Belial? Or what does
a believer have
in
common
with an unbeliever?

a believer with an unbeliever?

said :
“
I will dwell with
them and walk among
them ,
and I will be their God, and they will be My people. ”
What agreement has
a
temple of God with
idols? For you
are a
temple of the living God. Even
as God said ,
"
I will dwell in
them ,
and walk in
them ;
and I will be their God, and they will be my people. "

Therefore come out from among them and be separate, says the Lord .

sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty. ”

Father.
