2 Corinthians 2:15-17
International Standard Version

15 To God we are the aroma of the Messiah[a] among those who are being saved and among those who are being lost. 16 To some people we are a deadly fragrance,[b] while to others we are a living fragrance.[c] Who is qualified for this? 17 At least we are not commercializing God’s word like so many others. Instead, we speak with sincerity in the Messiah’s[d] name,[e] like people who are sent from God and are accountable to God.[f]
