2 Corinthians 4
1 through/because of this/he/she/it to have/be the/this/who service this/he/she/it as/just as to have mercy no to lose heart
Therefore, since God in His mercy has given us this ministry, we do not lose heart.
2 but to renounce the/this/who hidden the/this/who shame not to walk in/on/among craftiness nor to distort the/this/who word the/this/who God but the/this/who revelation the/this/who truth to commend themself to/with all conscience a human before the/this/who God
Instead, we have renounced secret and shameful ways. We do not practice deceit, nor do we distort the word of God. On the contrary, by open proclamation of the truth, we commend ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of God.
3 if then and to be to cover the/this/who gospel me in/on/among the/this/who to destroy to be to cover
And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing.
4 in/on/among which the/this/who God the/this/who an age: age this/he/she/it to blind the/this/who mind/thought the/this/who unbelieving toward the/this/who not to see (it/s/he *k*) the/this/who light the/this/who gospel the/this/who glory the/this/who Christ which to be image the/this/who God (aiōn g165)
The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers so they cannot see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. (aiōn g165)
5 no for themself to preach but Jesus Christ lord: God themself then slave you through/because of Jesus
For we do not proclaim ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, and ourselves as your servants for Jesus’ sake.
6 that/since: since the/this/who God the/this/who to say out from darkness light (to shine *N(k)O*) which to shine in/on/among the/this/who heart me to/with light the/this/who knowledge the/this/who glory the/this/who God in/on/among face Jesus Christ
For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” made His light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
7 to have/be then the/this/who treasure this/he/she/it in/on/among clay vessel in order that/to the/this/who surpassing the/this/who power to be the/this/who God and not out from me
Now we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this surpassingly great power is from God and not from us.
8 in/on/among all to press on but no to press upon be perplexed but no to despair
We are hard pressed on all sides, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair;
9 to pursue but no to leave behind to lay/throw down but no to destroy
persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed.
10 always the/this/who death the/this/who (lord: God *K*) Jesus in/on/among the/this/who body to carry (around) in order that/to and the/this/who life the/this/who Jesus in/on/among the/this/who body me to reveal
We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body.
11 always for me the/this/who to live toward death to deliver through/because of Jesus in order that/to and the/this/who life the/this/who Jesus to reveal in/on/among the/this/who mortal flesh me
For we who are alive are always consigned to death for Jesus’ sake, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our mortal body.
12 so the/this/who (on the other hand *k*) death in/on/among me be active the/this/who then life in/on/among you
So then, death is at work in us, but life is at work in you.
13 to have/be then the/this/who it/s/he spirit/breath: spirit the/this/who faith according to the/this/who to write to trust (in) therefore to speak and me to trust (in) therefore and to speak
And in keeping with what is written: “I believed, therefore I have spoken,” we who have the same spirit of faith also believe and therefore speak,
14 to know that/since: that the/this/who to arise the/this/who lord: God Jesus and me (with *N(k)O*) Jesus to arise and to stand by with you
knowing that the One who raised the Lord Jesus will also raise us with Jesus and present us with you in His presence.
15 the/this/who for all through/because of you in order that/to the/this/who grace to increase through/because of the/this/who greater the/this/who thankfulness to exceed toward the/this/who glory the/this/who God
All this is for your benefit, so that the grace that is extending to more and more people may overflow in thanksgiving, to the glory of God.
16 therefore no to lose heart but if and the/this/who out/outside(r) me a human to destroy but the/this/who (in/inner/inwardly *N(k)O*) (me *no*) to renew day and day
Therefore we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, yet our inner self is being renewed day by day.
