2 Corinthians 4:4-6
American Standard Version
4 in whom the god of this [a]world hath blinded the [b]minds of the unbelieving, [c]that the [d]light of the [e]gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should not dawn upon them. 5 For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus as Lord, and ourselves as your [f]servants [g]for Jesus’ sake. 6 Seeing it is God, that said, [h]Light shall shine out of darkness, who shined in our hearts, to give the [i]light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
