4 In their case, the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelieving, so they might not see the light of the Good News of the glory of Messiah, who is the image of God.
5 For we do not proclaim ourselves, but Messiah Yeshua as Lord—and ourselves as your slaves for Yeshua’s sake.
6 For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” is the One who has shone in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Messiah.
7 But we have this treasure in jars of clay, so that the surpassing greatness of the power may be from God and not from ourselves.
8 We are hard pressed in every way, yet not crushed; perplexed, yet not in despair;
9 persecuted, yet not forsaken; struck down, yet not destroyed;
10 always carrying in the body the death of Yeshua, so that the life of Yeshua may also be revealed in our mortal body.
