WE then, as workers togather with Him also plead with you not to recieve the grace of God in vain.

2 For He says: "In an acceptable time I have heard you, and in the day of salvation I have helped you. "Behold, now is acceptable time; behold, now is the day of salvation.

3 We give no offense in anything, that our ministers may not be blamed

4 But in all things we commend ourselves as minister of God: in much patience, in tribulation, in needs, in distresses,

5 In stripes, in imprisonments, in trumpts, in labors, in sleeplessness, in fasting;

6 By purity, by knowledge, by longsuffering, by kindness, by the Holy Spirit, by sincere love,

7 By the word of the truth, by the power of God, by the armor of righteousness on the right hand and on the left,

8 By honor and dishonor, by evil report and good report; as decievers, and yet true;

9 As unknown, and yet well known; as dying, and behold we live; as chastened, and yet not killed;

10 As sorrowful, yet making many rich; as  having nothing, and yet possessing all things.

11 O Corinithians! We have spoken openly to you, out heart is wide open.

12 You are not restricted by us, but you are restricted by your own affections.

13 Now in return for the same ( I speak as to children), you also be open.

14 Do not be unequally yoked togather with unbeliever. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness?

15 And what accord has Christ with Belial? Or what part has a believer with and unbeliever?

16 And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God. As God has said: "I will dwell in them and walk among them. I will be their God, and they shall  be My people."

17 Therefore "Come out from among them and be separate, says the Lord. Do not touch what is unclean, and I will recieve you."

18 "I will be a Father to you, and you shall be My sons and daughters, says the LORD Almighty." 2 Corinthians 6
