2 Corinthians 1:12 in Context — 2 Corinthians 1

10 O qual nos livrou de tamanha morte, e [ainda nos] livra; nele esperamos que também ainda [nos] livrará;

11 Junto do vosso auxílio com oração por nós, a fim de que, pelo favor [concedido] a nós por causa de muitas pessoas, por muitos sejam dadas graças [a Deus] por nós.

12 Porque nosso orgulho é este: o testemunho de nossa consciência, que com simplicidade e sinceridade de Deus, não com sabedoria carnal, mas com a graça de Deus, nós nos comportamos no mundo, e especialmente convosco.

13 Porque nenhuma outra coisa vos escrevemos, a não ser as que já sabeis, ou também entendeis; e espero que as entendereis por completo.

14 Assim como também já em parte tendes nos entendido, que somos vosso orgulho, como também vós sois o nosso [orgulho] no dia do Senhor Jesus.
