2 Corinthians 4:2-4
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
2 But we renounced the hidden things of [a] shame, not walking in craftiness[b], nor handling-deceitfully[c] the word of God, but by the open-disclosure of the truth, commending[d] ourselves to every conscience of mankind[e] in the sight of God. 3 And if indeed our good-news is veiled, it is veiled in the ones perishing, 4 in whose case the god of this age blinded the minds of the unbelievers so that they might not see[f] the illumination of the good-news of the glory of Christ— Who is the image of God.
