< 2 Corinthians 6 >
1 Working together, we entreat also that you not receive the grace of God in vain,
ⲁ̅ⲉⲛⲟ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ϣⲃⲣ̅ⲣ̅ϩⲱⲃ ⲧⲛ̅ⲡⲁⲣⲁⲕⲁⲗⲉⲓ ⲉⲧⲙ̅ⲧⲣⲉⲧⲛ̅ϣⲱⲡ ⲉⲣⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉϩⲙⲟⲧ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲡϫⲓⲛϫⲏ·
2 for he says, "At an acceptable time I listened to you, and in a day of salvation I helped you." Look, now is the "acceptable time." Look, 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,

6 in pureness, in knowledge, in patience, 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,

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

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 be open wide.

14 Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? Or what fellowship has light with darkness?

15 What agreement has Messiah with Belial? Or what portion has a believer with an unbeliever?

16 What agreement has a temple of God with idols? For we are a temple of the living God. Even as God said, "I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they will be my people."

17 Therefore, "'Go out from their midst, and be separate,' says the Lord, 'and touch no unclean thing,' and I will receive you.
