2 Corinthians 1:8-11
8For awe do not want you to be unaware, brothers, of our baffliction which came to us in 1,cAsia, that we were burdened excessively, beyond our strength, so that we despaired even to live. 91Indeed, we had the sentence of death within ourselves so that we would not have confidence in ourselves, but in God who raises the dead; 10who arescued us from so great a peril of death, and will rescue us, 1He bon whom we have set our hope. And He will yet rescue us, 11you also joining in ahelping us through your prayers on our behalf, so that thanks may be given on our behalf by bmany persons for the gracious gift bestowed on us through the prayers of many.
