2 Corinthians 6:3-13 - The Character Of Paul's Ministry

³ in nothing giving any cause of offence, that the ministration may be not blamed, ⁴ but in everything recommending ourselves as God's ministrants; in much patience, in tribulations, in necessities, in distresses, ⁵ in stripes, in imprisonments, in insurrections, in labours, in watchings, in fastings, ⁶ in pureness, in knowledge, in long-suffering, in kindness, in the Holy Spirit, in love unfeigned, ⁷ in the word of truth, in the power of God, through the armour of the righteousness, on the right and on the left, ⁸ through glory and dishonour, through evil report and good report, as leading astray, and true; ⁹ as unknown, and recognized; as dying, and lo, we live; as chastened, and not put to death; ¹⁰ as sorrowful, and always rejoicing; as poor, and making many rich; as having nothing, and possessing all things.

¹¹ Our mouth hath been open unto you, O Corinthians, our heart hath been enlarged! ¹² ye are not straitened in us, and ye are straitened in your own bowels, ¹³ and as a recompense of the same kind, (as to children I say it,) be ye enlarged -- also ye!
