Yes, we have had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves but in God who raises the dead,
Also He spoke this parable to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised the others:
Just as it is written: "For Your sake we are put to death the whole day long; we are accounted as sheep for slaughter."
who delivered us from so great a death, and is delivering us; in whom we trust that He will still deliver us,
For we do not desire you to be ignorant, brothers, concerning our affliction which happened to us in Asia: that we were burdened beyond measure, beyond our strength, so that we despaired even of life.
Not that we are sufficient in ourselves to consider anything as from ourselves, but our sufficiency is from God,
But we have this treasure in clay vessels, so that the extraordinary character of the power may be of God and not of us;
considering that even from the dead, God was able to raise him up, from which he also received him in a figurative sense.
