9 persecuted, but not aforsaken; bstruck down, but not destroyed—
10 aalways carrying about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, bthat the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our body.
11 For we who live aare always delivered to death for Jesus’ sake, that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our mortal flesh.
12 So then death is working in us, but life in you.
13 And since we have athe same spirit of faith, according to what is written, b“I believed and therefore I spoke,” we also believe and therefore speak,
14 knowing that aHe who raised up the Lord Jesus will also raise us up with Jesus, and will present us with you.
15 For aall things are for your sakes, that bgrace, having spread through the many, may cause thanksgiving to abound to the glory of God.
Seeing the Invisible
16 Therefore we ado not lose heart. Even though our outward man is perishing, yet the inward man is bbeing renewed day by day.
17 For aour light affliction, which is but for a moment, is working for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory,
18 awhile we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal.
