New English Translation
2 Corinthians 6:9-11
New English Translation
9 as unknown, and yet well-known; as dying and yet—see!—we continue to live; as those who are scourged[a] and yet not executed; 10 as sorrowful, but always rejoicing, as poor, but making many rich, as having nothing, and yet possessing everything.
11 We have spoken freely to you,[b] Corinthians; our heart has been opened wide to you.
