2 Corinthians 6:2-4
1599 Geneva Bible
2 [a]For he saith, (A)I have heard thee in a time [b]accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succored thee: behold now the accepted time, behold now the day of salvation.
3 [c]We give no occasion of offence in anything, that our ministry should not be reprehended.
4 But in all things we [d]approve ourselves as (B)the ministers of God, [e]in much patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses.
