2 Corinthians 5:11-13

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹¹ Knowing therefore the fear of the Lord, we use persuasion to men; but to God we are manifest. And I trust also that in your consciences we are manifest.

¹² We commend not ourselves again to you, but give you occasion to glory in our behalf; that you may have somewhat to answer them who glory in face, and not in heart.

¹³ For whether we be transported in mind, it is to God; or whether we be sober, it is for you.
