New International Version

2 Corinthians 6:4-10 New International Version (NIV)

4. Rather, as servants of God we commend ourselves in every way: in great endurance; in troubles, hardships and distresses;

5. in beatings, imprisonments and riots; in hard work, sleepless nights and hunger;

6. in purity, understanding, patience and kindness; in the Holy Spirit and in sincere love;

7. in truthful speech and in the power of God; with weapons of righteousness in the right hand and in the left;

8. through glory and dishonor, bad report and good report; genuine, yet regarded as impostors;

9. known, yet regarded as unknown; dying, and yet we live on; beaten, and yet not killed;

10. sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; poor, yet making many rich; having nothing, and yet possessing everything.
