¹ ON this account we have not weariness in this ministry which we have received, according to the mercies that are upon us.² But we have rejected the secrets of shamefulness; and walk not with craft, nor deal deceitfully (with) the word of Aloha; but by the revelation of the truth make we ourselves manifest to the minds of all men before Aloha.³ But if our gospel is hid, to those who perish is it hid:⁴ (to) them whose minds the god of this world hath blinded because they believe not; lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Meshiha, who is the image of Aloha, should arise upon them.⁵ For we preach not ourselves, but the Meshiha, Jeshu our Lord; but ourselves that we are your servants for the sake of Jeshu.⁶ For Aloha, who said, Let light arise from darkness, hath arisen in our hearts; that we should be illuminated by the knowledge of the glory of Aloha in the face of Jeshu Meshiha.⁷ BUT we have this treasure in a vase of earth, that the greatness of the power might be from Aloha, and not from us.

⁸ But in every thing we are afflicted, yet not strangled; we are beaten, yet not condemned;⁹ persecuted, yet not forsaken; cast down, yet we perish not.¹⁰ In all time the dying of Jeshu in our bodies we bear, that the life also of Jeshu might in our bodies be revealed.¹¹ For if we, the living, unto death are delivered on account of Jeshu, so also will the life of Jeshu be revealed in this our body of death.¹² Now death in us worketh earnestly, but life in you.¹³ We then also who have one spirit of faith, as it is written, I have believed, and therefore also spoken; we believe, therefore also we speak.¹⁴ And we know that He who raised up our Lord Jeshu, will by Jeshu raise us also, and will present us with you unto himself.¹⁵ For every thing is for your sake, that grace, abounding by many, may multiply praise to the glory of Aloha.¹⁶ For this cause we have not weariness; for if our outward man is wasted, yet the interior man is renovated day by day.¹⁷ For the affliction of this time, while small and light, a glory without end for ever and ever prepareth for us.¹⁸ While we look not on these which are seen, but at those which are unseen. For the seen are of time, but the unseen are of eternity.
