2 Corinthians 4:14-18

14 Knowing that he which raised (roused from sleep) up the Lord Jesus shall raise (roused from sleep) up us also by Jesus, and shall present us with you.

15 For all things are for your sakes (on account of you), that the abundant (abounding) grace might through the thanksgiving of many redound (overflow, excel) to (motion to) the glory of God.

16 For which cause (therefore) we faint (to lose one’s courage, to turn out a coward) not; but though (even if) our outward (old nature) man perish (is corrupted or destroyed), yet the inward (from within) man is renewed (daily acquire new strength) day by day.

17 For our light affliction (momentary lightness of our affliction), which is but for a moment, worketh (to work out) for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory;

18 While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal (for a season); but the things which are not seen are eternal.
