1 Paul, called [to be] an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes our brother,

2 to the church of God which is at Corinth, to those who have been sanctified in Christ Jesus, called [to be] saints, with all those who in every place are calling on the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both theirs and ours:

3 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

4 I thank my God always on your behalf for the grace of God which was given to you in Christ Jesus,

5 that in everything you were enriched by Him in all speech and all knowledge,

6 just as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you,

7 so that you are not lacking in any gift, eagerly awaiting the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ,

8 who will also confirm you until the end, [that you may be] unimpeachable in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
