2 Corinthians 1:7-9
1599 Geneva Bible
7 And our hope is steadfast concerning you, in as much as we know, that as ye are partakers of the sufferings, so shall ye be also of the consolation.
8 [a]For brethren, we would not have you ignorant of our affliction, which came unto us in Asia, how we were pressed out of measure passing strength, so that we altogether [b]doubted even of life.
9 Yea, we received the sentence of death in [c]ourselves, because we should not rest in ourselves, but in God, which raised the dead.
