2 Coríntios 6

4 Instead we try to demonstrate we are good servants of God in every way we can. With a great deal of patience we put up with all kinds of trouble, hardship, and distress. 5 We have been beaten up, thrown into prison, and attacked by mobs. We have been worked to the bone, suffering sleepless nights and hunger. 6 We demonstrate who we are by living blameless lives in the knowledge of God, with a great deal of patience, being kind and filled with the Holy Spirit, showing sincere love. 7 We speak truthfully,*6:7. Or "word of truth," meaning the gospel. living in the power of God. Our weapons consist of what is true and right; we attack with our right hand and we defend with our left.*6:7. Literally, "weapons of the right and left." This may mean the use of a sword with the right hand and a shield with the left. 8 We continue whether we are honored or dishonored, whether we are cursed or praised. People call us frauds but we tell the truth. 9 We are disregarded, even though we are well-known; given up for dead, but we’re still alive; lashed, but not killed. 10 Seen as miserable, we are always rejoicing; as poor, but we make many rich; as destitute, but we own everything!
