CO2 1:1  Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timothy our
 brother, unto the church of God which is at Corinth, with all the saints
 which are in all Achaia:

CO2 1:2  Grace be to you and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus
 Christ.

CO2 1:3  Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father
 of mercies, and the God of all comfort;

CO2 1:4  Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to
 comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves
 are comforted of God.

CO2 1:5  For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also
 aboundeth by Christ.

CO2 1:6  And whether we be afflicted, it is for your consolation and salvation,
 which is effectual in the enduring of the same sufferings which we also
 suffer: or whether we be comforted, it is for your consolation and salvation.

CO2 1:7  And our hope of you is stedfast, knowing, that as ye are partakers
 of the sufferings, so shall ye be also of the consolation.

CO2 1:8  For we would not, brethren, have you ignorant of our trouble which
 came to us in Asia, that we were pressed out of measure, above strength,
 insomuch that we despaired even of life:

CO2 1:9  But we had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we should not
 trust in ourselves, but in God which raiseth the dead:

CO2 1:10  Who delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver: in whom we
 trust that he will yet deliver us;

CO2 1:11  Ye also helping together by prayer for us, that for the gift bestowed
 upon us by the means of many persons thanks may be given by many on our
 behalf.

CO2 1:12  For our rejoicing is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in
 simplicity and godly sincerity, not with fleshly wisdom, but by the grace of
 God, we have had our conversation in the world, and more abundantly to
 you-ward.

CO2 1:13  For we write none other things unto you, than what ye read or
 acknowledge; and I trust ye shall acknowledge even to the end;

CO2 1:14  As also ye have acknowledged us in part, that we are your rejoicing,
 even as ye also are our's in the day of the Lord Jesus.

CO2 1:15  And in this confidence I was minded to come unto you before, that ye
 might have a second benefit;

CO2 1:16  And to pass by you into Macedonia, and to come again out of Macedonia
 unto you, and of you to be brought on my way toward Judaea.

CO2 1:17  When I therefore was thus minded, did I use lightness? or the things
 that I purpose, do I purpose according to the flesh, that with me there
 should be yea yea, and nay nay?

CO2 1:18  But as God is true, our word toward you was not yea and nay.

CO2 1:19  For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us,
 even by me and Silvanus and Timotheus, was not yea and nay, but in him was
 yea.

CO2 1:20  For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the
 glory of God by us.

CO2 1:21  Now he which stablisheth us with you in Christ, and hath anointed us,
 is God;

CO2 1:22  Who hath also sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our
 hearts.

CO2 1:23  Moreover I call God for a record upon my soul, that to spare you I
 came not as yet unto Corinth.

CO2 1:24  Not for that we have dominion over your faith, but are helpers of
 your joy: for by faith ye stand.

CO2 2:1  But I determined this with myself, that I would not come again to you
 in heaviness.

CO2 2:2  For if I make you sorry, who is he then that maketh me glad, but the
 same which is made sorry by me?

CO2 2:3  And I wrote this same unto you, lest, when I came, I should have
 sorrow from them of whom I ought to rejoice; having confidence in you all,
 that my joy is the joy of you all.

CO2 2:4  For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote unto you with
 many tears; not that ye should be grieved, but that ye might know the love
 which I have more abundantly unto you.

CO2 2:5  But if any have caused grief, he hath not grieved me, but in part:
 that I may not overcharge you all.

CO2 2:6  Sufficient to such a man is this punishment, which was inflicted of
 many.

CO2 2:7  So that contrariwise ye ought rather to forgive him, and comfort him,
 lest perhaps such a one should be swallowed up with overmuch sorrow.

CO2 2:8  Wherefore I beseech you that ye would confirm your love toward him.

CO2 2:9  For to this end also did I write, that I might know the proof of you,
 whether ye be obedient in all things.

CO2 2:10  To whom ye forgive any thing, I forgive also: for if I forgave any
 thing, to whom I forgave it, for your sakes forgave I it in the person of
 Christ;

CO2 2:11  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of
 his devices.

CO2 2:12  Furthermore, when I came to Troas to preach Christ's gospel, and a
 door was opened unto me of the Lord,

CO2 2:13  I had no rest in my spirit, because I found not Titus my brother: but
 taking my leave of them, I went from thence into Macedonia.

CO2 2:14  Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in
 Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place.

CO2 2:15  For we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ, in them that are
 saved, and in them that perish:

CO2 2:16  To the one we are the savour of death unto death; and to the other
 the savour of life unto life. And who is sufficient for these things?

CO2 2:17  For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of
 sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ.

CO2 3:1  Do we begin again to commend ourselves? or need we, as some others,
 epistles of commendation to you, or letters of commendation from you?

CO2 3:2  Ye are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read of all men:

CO2 3:3  Forasmuch as ye are manifestly declared to be the epistle of Christ
 ministered by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living
 God; not in tables of stone, but in fleshy tables of the heart.

CO2 3:4  And such trust have we through Christ to God-ward:

CO2 3:5  Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think any thing as of
 ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God;

CO2 3:6  Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the
 letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth
 life.

CO2 3:7  But if the ministration of death, written and engraven in stones, was
 glorious, so that the children of Israel could not stedfastly behold the face
 of Moses for the glory of his countenance; which glory was to be done away:

CO2 3:8  How shall not the ministration of the spirit be rather glorious?

CO2 3:9  For if the ministration of condemnation be glory, much more doth the
 ministration of righteousness exceed in glory.

CO2 3:10  For even that which was made glorious had no glory in this respect,
 by reason of the glory that excelleth.

CO2 3:11  For if that which is done away was glorious, much more that which
 remaineth is glorious.

CO2 3:12  Seeing then that we have such hope, we use great plainness of speech:

CO2 3:13  And not as Moses, which put a vail over his face, that the children
 of Israel could not stedfastly look to the end of that which is abolished:

CO2 3:14  But their minds were blinded: for until this day remaineth the same
 vail untaken away in the reading of the old testament; which vail is done
 away in Christ.

CO2 3:15  But even unto this day, when Moses is read, the vail is upon their
 heart.

CO2 3:16  Nevertheless when it shall turn to the Lord, the vail shall be taken
 away.

CO2 3:17  Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord
 is, there is liberty.

CO2 3:18  But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the
 Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the
 Spirit of the LORD.

CO2 4:1  Therefore seeing we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we
 faint not;

CO2 4:2  But have renounced
