2 Corinthians 6:9-13

as unknown and yet well known, as dying and yet behold, we are alive; as punished and yet not put to death,

as sorrowful yet always rejoicing, as poor yet making many rich, as having nothing and yet possessing all things.

Our mouth has spoken freely to you, you Corinthians, our heart is opened wide.

You are not restrained by us, but you are restrained in your own affections.

Now in the same way in exchange—I am speaking as to children—open wide your hearts to us, you as well.
