13 Porém, despedindo-me deles, eu parti para a Macedônia.

14 E graças a Deus, que sempre nos faz triunfar em Cristo, e por nós em todo lugar manifesta o cheiro de seu conhecimento.

15 Porque para Deus somos o bom cheiro de Cristo, nos que se salvam, e nos que se perdem.

16 Para estes certamente cheiro de morte, para a morte; mas para aqueles cheiro de vida, para a vida. E quem é idôneo para estas coisas?

17 Porque nós não somos como muitos, que tentam vender a palavra de Deus; mas nós [a] falamos em Cristo, diante de Deus, com sinceridade, como [enviados] de Deus.
