2 Corinthians 4:7 in Context — 2 Corinthians 4
5 Porque nós não pregamos a nós mesmos, mas sim a Cristo Jesus, o Senhor; e a nós mesmos [como] vossos servos, por causa de Jesus.
6 Porque o Deus que disse que das trevas brilhasse a luz é o [mesmo] que brilhou em nossos corações, para a iluminação do conhecimento da glória de Deus no rosto de Jesus Cristo.
7 Porém temos este tesouro em vasos de barro, para que a excelência do poder seja de Deus, e não de nós.
8 [Somos] em tudo afligidos, mas não esmagados; perplexos, mas não desesperados;
9 Perseguidos, mas não desamparados; abatidos, porém não destruídos.
