[4]  But in all things approving ourselves as the ministers of God, in much patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses,

[5]  In stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labors, in watchings, in fastings;

[6]  By pureness, by knowledge, by long-suffering, by kindness, by the Holy Ghost, by love unfeigned,

[7]  By the word of truth, by the power of God, by the armor of righteousness on the right hand and on the left,

[16]  And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? for you are the temple of the living God; as God has said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

[17]  Why come out from among them, and be you separate, says the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you.
