[1] Working together, we entreat also that you do not receive the grace of God in vain. [2] For he says,
“At an acceptable time I listened to you.
In a day of salvation I helped you.”†Behold, now is the acceptable time. Behold, now is the day of salvation. [3] We give no occasion of stumbling in anything, that our service may not be blamed, [4] but in everything commending ourselves as servants of God: in great endurance, in afflictions, in hardships, in distresses, [5] in beatings, in imprisonments, in riots, in labors, in watchings, in fastings, [6] in pureness, in knowledge, in perseverance, in kindness, in the Holy Spirit, in sincere love, [7] in the word of truth, in the power of God, by the armor of righteousness on the right hand and on the left, [8] by glory and dishonor, by evil report and good report, as deceivers and yet true, [9] as unknown and yet well known, as dying and behold—we live, as punished and not killed, [10] as sorrowful yet always rejoicing, as poor yet making many rich, as having nothing and yet possessing all things. [11] Our mouth is open to you, Corinthians. Our heart is enlarged. [12] You are not restricted by us, but you are restricted by your own affections. [13] Now in return—I speak as to my children—you also open your hearts. [14] Don’t be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship do righteousness and iniquity have? Or what fellowship does light have with darkness? [15] What agreement does Christ have with Belial? Or what portion does a believer have with an unbeliever? [16] What agreement does a temple of God have with idols? For you are a temple of the living God. Even as God said, “I will dwell in them and walk in them. I will be their God and they will be my people.”† [17] Therefore
“ ‘Come out from among them,
and be separate,’ says the Lord.
‘Touch no unclean thing.
I will receive you.†
[18] I will be to you a Father.
You will be to me sons and daughters,’says the Lord Almighty.”†

[1] We G3870 then, G1161 as workers together G4903 (PresActPtc) with him, beseech G3870 (PresActInd) you also G2532 that ye G5209 receive G1209 (AorMidDepInf) not G3361 the grace G5485 of God G2316 in G1519 vain. G2756 [2] (For G1063 he saith, G3004 (PresActInd)
I have heard G1873 (AorActInd) thee G4675 in a time G2540 accepted, G1184
And G2532 in G1722 the day G2250 of salvation G4991 have I succoured G997 (AorActInd) thee: G4671behold, G2400 (Aor2ActImpr) now G3568 is the accepted G2144 time; G2540 behold, G2400 (Aor2ActImpr) now G3568 is the day G2250 of salvation.) G4991 [3] Giving G1325 (PresActPtc) no G3367 offence G4349 in G1722 any thing, G3367 that G3363 the ministry G1248 be G3469 not G3363 blamed: G3469 (AorPasSubj) [4] But G235 in G1722 all G3956 things approving§ G4921 (PresActPtc) ourselves G1438 as G5613 the ministers G1249 of God, G2316 in G1722 much G4183 patience, G5281 in G1722 afflictions, G2347 in G1722 necessities, G318 in G1722 distresses, G4730 [5] in G1722 stripes, G4127 in G1722 imprisonments, G5438 in G1722 tumults, G181§ in G1722 labours, G2873 in G1722 watchings, G70 in G1722 fastings; G3521 [6] by G1722 pureness, G54 by G1722 knowledge, G1108 by G1722 longsuffering, G3115 by G1722 kindness, G5544 by G1722 the Holy G40 Ghost, G4151 by G1722 love G26 unfeigned, G505 [7] by G1722 the word G3056 of truth, G225 by G1722 the power G1411 of God, G2316 by G1223 the armour G3696 of righteousness G1343 on the right hand G1188 and G2532 on the left, G710 [8] by G1223 honour G1391 and G2532 dishonour, G819 by G1223 evil report G1426 and G2532 good report: G2162 as G5613 deceivers, G4108 and G2532 yet true; G227 [9] as G5613 unknown, G50 (PresPasPtc) and G2532 yet well known; G1921 (PresPasPtc) as G5613 dying, G599 (PresActPtc) and, G2532 behold, G2400 (Aor2ActImpr) we live; G2198 (PresActInd) as G5613 chastened, G3811 (PresPasPtc) and G2532 not G3361 killed; G2289 (PresPasPtc) [10] as G5613 sorrowful, G3076 (PresPasPtc) yet G1161 alway G104 rejoicing; G5463 (PresActPtc) as G5613 poor, G4434 yet G1161 making G4148 many G4183 rich; G4148 (PresActPtc) as G5613 having G2192 (PresActPtc) nothing, G3367 and G2532 yet possessing G2722 (PresActPtc) all things. G3956 [11] O ye Corinthians, G2881 our G2257 mouth G4750 is open G455 (Perf2ActInd) unto G4314 you, G5209 our G2257 heart G2588 is enlarged. G4115 (PerfPasInd) [12] Ye are G4729 not G3756 straitened G4729 (PresPasInd) in G1722 us, G2254 but G1161 ye are straitened G4729 (PresPasInd) in G1722 your own G5216 bowels. G4698 [13] Now G1161 for a recompence G489 in the same, G846 (I speak G3004 (PresActInd) as G5613 unto my children,) G5043 be G4115 ye G5210 also G2532 enlarged. G4115 (AorPasImpr)

[14] Be ye G1096 (PresMidPasDepImpr) not G3361 unequally yoked together G2086 (PresActPtc) with unbelievers: G571 for G1063 what G5101 fellowship G3352 hath righteousness G1343 with G2532 unrighteousness? G458 and G1161 what G5101 communion G2842 hath light G5457 with G4314 darkness? G4655 [15] And G1161 what G5101 concord G4857 hath Christ G5547 with G4314 Belial? G955 or G2228 what G5101 part G3310 hath he that believeth G4103 with G3326 an infidel? G571 [16] And G1161 what G5101 agreement G4783 hath the temple G3485 of God G2316 with G3326 idols? G1497 for G1063 ye G5210 are G2075 (PresInd) the temple G3485 of the living G2198 (PresActPtc) God; G2316 as G2531 God G2316 hath said, G2036 (Aor2ActInd) I will dwell G1774 (FutActInd) in G1722 them, G846 and G2532 walk in G1704 (FutActInd) them; and G2532 I will be G2071 (FutInd) their G846 God, G2316 and G2532 they G846 shall be G2071 (FutInd) my G3427 people. G2992 [17] Wherefore G1352
Come out G1831 (Aor2ActImpr) from G1537 among G3319 them, G846 and G2532 be ye separate, G873 (AorPasImpr)saith G3004 (PresActInd) the Lord, G2962
And G2532 touch G680 (PresMidImpr) not G3361 the unclean G169 thing;
And G2504 I will receive G1523 (FutMidDepInd) you, G5209
[18] And G2532 will be G2071 (FutInd) a Father G3962 unto you, G5213
And G2532 ye G5210 shall be G2071 (FutInd) my G3427 sons G5207 and G2532 daughters, G2364saith G3004 (PresActInd) the Lord G2962 Almighty. G3841
