2 Corinthians 1:1-11 — Greeting and Thanksgiving

2Cor.1.1-11

¹Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and Timothy our brother, to the church of God that is in Corinth, together with all the saints in all Achaia: ²Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. ³Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, ⁴who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those in every affliction through the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God. ⁵For just as the sufferings of Christ overflow to us, so also through Christ our comfort overflows. ⁶If we are afflicted, it is for your comfort and salvation; if we are comforted, it is for your comfort , which is at work in the patient endurance of the same sufferings that we also suffer. ⁷And our hope for you is firm , knowing that as you are sharers in the sufferings, so also you are sharers in the comfort. ⁸For we do not want you to be unaware, brothers, concerning our affliction that happened in Asia , that we were burdened excessively, beyond our strength, so that we despaired even of life. ⁹Indeed, we ourselves had received the sentence of death within ourselves, so that we would not rely on ourselves but on God, who raises the dead. ¹⁰He delivered us from such a deadly peril, and he will deliver us. On him we have set our hope that he will still deliver us, ¹¹as you also join in helping us by prayer, so that thanks may be given by many persons on our behalf for the gracious gift granted to us.
