4. in whom the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelieving, that the light of the Good News of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should not dawn on them.
5. For we don’t preach ourselves, but Christ Jesus as Lord, and ourselves as your servants for Jesus’ sake;
6. seeing it is God who said, “Light will shine out of darkness,” who has shone in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
7. But we have this treasure in clay vessels, that the exceeding greatness of the power may be of God, and not from ourselves.
8. We are pressed on every side, yet not crushed; perplexed, yet not to despair;
9. pursued, yet not forsaken; struck down, yet not destroyed;
10. always carrying in the body the putting to death of the Lord Jesus, that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body.
