¹ Wee then, as workers together with him, beseech you also, that ye receiue not the grace of God in vaine. ² (For he saith, I haue heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of saluation haue I succoured thee: beholde, now is the accepted time, behold, now is the day of saluation) ³ Giuing no offence in any thing, that the ministery be not blamed: ⁴ But in all things approuing our selues, as the Ministers of God, in much patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses, ⁵ In stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labours, in watchings, in fastings, ⁶ By purenesse, by knowledge, by long suffering, by kindnesse, by the holy Ghost, by loue vnfained, ⁷ By the worde of trueth, by the power of God, by the armour of righteousnesse, on the right hand, and on the left, ⁸ By honour and dishonour, by euil report and good report, as deceiuers and yet true: ⁹ As vnknowen, & yet wel knowen: as dying, and behold, we liue: as chastened, and not killed: ¹⁰ As sorrowfull, yet alway reioycing: as poore, yet making many rich: as hauing nothing, and yet possessing all things.

¹¹ O yee Corinthians, our mouth is open vnto you, our heart is enlarged. ¹² Yee are not straitened in vs, but yee are straitned in your owne bowels. ¹³ Nowe for a recompense in the same, (I speake as vnto my children) be ye also inlarged. ¹⁴ Be ye not vnequally yoked together with vnbeleeuers: for what fellowship hath righteousnesse with vnrighteousnesse? and what communion hath light with darknesse? ¹⁵ And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that beleeueth, with an infidel? ¹⁶ And what agreement hath the Temple of God with idoles? for ye are the Temple of the liuing God, as God hath saide, I will dwell in them, and walke in them, and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. ¹⁷ Wherefore come out from among them, and bee yee separate, saieth the Lord, and touch not the vncleane thing, and I will receiue you, ¹⁸ And will bee a Father vnto you, and ye shall bee my sonnes and daughters, saith the Lord Almightie.
