2 Corinthians 5:12-15 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

12. We are not commending ourselves to you again, but are giving you an opportunity to boast about us, in order that you may have an answer for those who boast in appearance and not in heart.

13. For if we are out of our senses, it is for God; if we are of sound mind, it is for you.

14. For the love of Christ controls us, because we have concluded this: that one died for all; as a result all died.

15. And he died for all, in order that those who live should no longer live for themselves, but for the one who died for them and was raised.
