Paul an apostle of Jesus Christ, by the will of God, and Timotheus our brother, to the church of God that is in Corinth, with all the saints that are in all Achaia:

Grace and peace be to you from God our Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ.

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and God of all comfort,

As also ye have acknowledged us in part, that we are your rejoicing, as ye also are ours, in the day of the Lord Jesus.

For Jesus Christ the Son of God, who was preached among you by us, by me, and Silvanus, and Timotheus was not yea and nay; but was yea in him.

For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord, and ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake.

For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to inlighten us with the knowledge of the glory of God, in the face of Jesus Christ.

Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus may be manifested in our body.

We who live are always delivered unto death for the sake of Jesus, that the life also of Jesus may be manifested in our mortal body.

Knowing that he who raised up the Lord Jesus, will also raise us up by Jesus, and present us with you.

And all things are from God, who hath reconciled us to himself through Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation: Namely,

For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sake he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.

If indeed he that cometh preach another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another Spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him.

The God and Father of the Lord Jesus Christ, who is blessed for ever, knoweth that I lie not.

Examine yourselves, whether ye are in the faith: prove yourselves. Do ye not know yourselves? That Jesus Christ is in you? unless ye are reprobates.

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all.
