2 Corinthians 1:8-11 For we do not wish you to be ignorant, brethren, as to our tribulation which happened in Asia,––that, exceedingly, beyond power, were we weighed down, so that we despaired, even of life.

Rotherham⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁸ For we do not wish you to be ignorant, brethren, as to our tribulation which happened in Asia,––that, exceedingly, beyond power, were we weighed down, so that we despaired, even of life. ⁹ But, we ourselves, within ourselves, have had the sentence of death, that we might not rest our confidence upon ourselves, but upon God, who raiseth the dead, ¹⁰ Who, out of so great a death, rescued us, and will rescue,––unto whom we have turned our hope, [that], even yet, he will rescue: ¹¹ Ye also labouring together on our behalf, by your supplication, that, unto many persons, being due the gift of favour, unto us, through means of many, might thanks be given in our behalf.
