dby - 2Corinthians:2:12-3:6

dby@2Corinthians:2:12 @ Now when I came to Troas for the [publication of the] glad tidings of the Christ, a door also being opened to me in [the] Lord,

dby@2Corinthians:2:13 @ I had no rest in my spirit at not finding Titus my brother; but bidding them adieu, I came away to Macedonia.

dby@2Corinthians:2:14 @ But thanks [be] to God, who always leads us in triumph in the Christ, and makes manifest the odour of his knowledge through us in every place.

dby@2Corinthians:2:15 @ For we are a sweet odour of Christ to God, in the saved and in those that perish:

dby@2Corinthians:2:16 @ to the one an odour from death unto death, but to the others an odour from life unto life; and who [is] sufficient for these things?

dby@2Corinthians:2:17 @ For we do not, as the many, make a trade of the word of God; but as of sincerity, but as of God, before God, we speak in Christ.

dby@2Corinthians:3:1 @ Do we begin again to commend ourselves? or do we need, as some, commendatory letters to you, or [commendatory] from you?

dby@2Corinthians:3:2 @ Ye are our letter, written in our hearts, known and read of all men,

dby@2Corinthians:3:3 @ being manifested to be Christ's epistle ministered by us, written, not with ink, but [the] Spirit of [the] living God; not on stone tables, but on fleshy tables of [the] heart.

dby@2Corinthians:3:4 @ And such confidence have we through the Christ towards God:

dby@2Corinthians:3:5 @ not that we are competent of ourselves to think anything as of ourselves, but our competency [is] of God;

dby@2Corinthians:3:6 @ who has also made us competent, [as] ministers of [the] new covenant; not of letter, but of spirit. For the letter kills, but the Spirit quickens.
