2 Corinthians
Chapter 6
New King James Version1We then, [as] workers together [with Him] also plead with [you] not to receive the grace of God in vain.
2For He says: "In an acceptable time I have heard you, And in the day of salvation I have helped you." Behold, now [is] the accepted time; behold, now [is] the day of salvation.
3We give no offense in anything, that our ministry may not be blamed.
4But in all [things] we commend ourselves as ministers of God: in much patience, in tribulations, in needs, in distresses,
5in stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labors, in sleeplessness, in fastings;
6by purity, by knowledge, by longsuffering, by kindness, by the Holy Spirit, by sincere love,
7by the word of truth, by the power of God, by the armor of righteousness on the right hand and on the left,
8by honor and dishonor, by evil report and good report; as deceivers, and [yet] true;
9as unknown, and [yet] well known; as dying, and behold we live; as chastened, and [yet] not killed;
10as sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and [yet] possessing all things.
11O Corinthians! We have spoken openly to you, our heart is wide open.
12You are not restricted by us, but you are restricted by your [own] affections.
13Now in return for the same (I speak as to children), you also be open.
14Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness?
15And what accord has Christ with Belial? Or what part has a believer with an unbeliever?
16And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God. As God has said: "I will dwell in them And walk among [them.] I will be their God, And they shall be My people."
17Therefore "Come out from among them And be separate, says the Lord. Do not touch what is unclean, And I will receive you."
18"I will be a Father to you, And you shall be My sons and daughters, Says the LORD Almighty."
