8Troubles are round us on every side, but we are not shut in; things are hard for us, but we see a way out of them;
9We are cruelly attacked, but not without hope; we are made low, but we are not without help;
10In our bodies there is ever the mark of the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may be seen in our bodies.
11For, while living, we are still being given up to death because of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may be seen in our flesh, though it is under the power of death.
12So then, death is working in us, but life in you.
13But having the same spirit of faith, as it is said in the Writings, The words of my mouth came from the faith in my heart; in the same way, our words are the outcome of our faith;
14Because we are certain that he who made the Lord Jesus come back from the dead, will do the same for us, and will give us a place in his glory with you.
