14 (A)But thanks be to God, who always (B)leads us in triumph in Christ, and through us reveals the (C)fragrance of the (D)knowledge of Him in every place.

But we have this treasure in [a](A)earthen containers, so that the extraordinary greatness of (B)the power will be of God and not from ourselves; we are (C)afflicted in every way, but not (D)crushed; (E)perplexed, but not despairing; (F)persecuted, but not (G)abandoned; (H)struck down, but not destroyed; 10 (I)always carrying around in the body the dying of Jesus, so that (J)the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body. 11 For we who live are constantly being handed over to death because of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our mortal flesh. 12 So death works in us, but life in you.

13 But having the same (K)spirit of faith, according to what is written: “(L)I believed, therefore I spoke,” we also believe, therefore we also speak, 14 knowing that He who (M)raised the Lord Jesus (N)will also raise us with Jesus, and will (O)present us with you. 15 For all things are (P)for your sakes, so that grace, having [b](Q)spread to more and more people, will cause thanksgiving to overflow to the glory of God.

16 Therefore we (R)do not lose heart, but though our outer person is decaying, yet our (S)inner person is (T)being renewed day by day. 17 For our momentary, (U)light affliction is producing for us an eternal weight of glory far beyond all comparison, 18 while we (V)look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen; for the things which are seen are temporal, but the things which are not seen are eternal.

11 (Y)Our mouth [d]has spoken freely to you, you Corinthians, our (Z)heart is opened wide. 12 You are not restrained [e]by us, but (AA)you are restrained in your own [f]affections. 13 Now in the same way in (AB)exchange—I am speaking as to (AC)children—open wide your hearts to us, you as well.

14 (AD)Do not be [g]mismatched with (AE)unbelievers; for what do righteousness and lawlessness (AF)share together, or what does light have in common with darkness? 15 Or what (AG)harmony does Christ have with [h]Belial, or [i]what does a (AH)believer share with an (AI)unbeliever? 16 Or (AJ)what agreement does [j]the temple of God have with idols? For we are [k](AK)the temple of (AL)the living God; just as God said,

(AM)I will (AN)dwell among them and (AO)walk among them;
And I will be their God, and they shall be My people.
17 (AP)Therefore, (AQ)come out from their midst and be separate,” says the Lord.
And do not touch what is unclean;
And I will welcome you.
18 (AR)And I will be a father to you,
And you shall be (AS)sons and daughters to Me,”
Says the Lord Almighty.
