2 Corinthians 5:13

← 2 Corinthians 5:12	2 Corinthians 5:13 (KJV)	2 Corinthians 5:14 →
For we commend not ourselves again unto you, but give you occasion to glory on our behalf, that ye may have somewhat to [answer] them which glory in appearance, and not in heart.	For whether we be beside ourselves, [it is] to God: or whether we be sober, [it is] for your cause.	For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead:
