2 Corinthians 2:17 CPDV

¹⁵  For we are the sweet fragrance of Christ for God, both with those who are being saved and with those who are perishing.

¹⁶  To the one, certainly, the fragrance is of death unto death. But to the other, the fragrance is of life unto life. And concerning these things, who is so suitable?

¹⁷  For we are not like many others, adulterating the Word of God. But instead, we speak with sincerity: from God, before God, and in Christ.
