2 Corinthians 1:8-11

Thomson(i) 8 For we do not, brethren, wish you to be ignorant with respect to that affliction of ours which befel us in Asia; that we were exceedingly pressed beyond our strength, so that we had indeed no hopes of life; 9 but had in ourselves the sentence of death, that we might not trust in ourselves, but in God who raiseth the dead, 10 who delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver: in whom we trust that he will still deliver us, 11 you joining the assistance of your prayers for us, that the favour granted to us for the sake of many may be acknowledged by many with thanksgiving on our behalf.
