Compare all

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,

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.
