11 For we who live are ever handed over unto death for the sake of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be manifested in our mortal flesh.
12 Therefore, death is at work in us, and life is at work in you.
13 But we have the same Spirit of faith. And just as it is written, "I believed, and for that reason I spoke," so we also believe, and for that reason, we also speak.
14 For we know that the One who raised up Jesus will raise us up also with Jesus and will place us with you.
15 Thus, all is for you, so that grace, abounding through many in thanksgiving, may abound to the glory of God.
16 For this reason, we are not insufficient. But it is as though our outer man is corrupted, while our inner man is renewed from day to day.
17 For though our tribulation is, at the present time, brief and light, it accomplishes in us the weight of a sublime eternal glory, beyond measure.
