^{16 Ref} For which cause we do not give way to weariness; but though our outer man is getting feebler, our inner man is made new day by day.

^{17 Ref} For our present trouble, which is only for a short time, is working out for us a much greater weight of glory;

^{18 Ref} While our minds are not on the things which are seen, but on the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are for a time; but the things which are not seen are eternal.

^{16 Ref} Wherefore we faint not; but though our outward man is decaying, yet our inward man is renewed day by day.

^{17 Ref} For our light affliction, which is for the moment, worketh for us more and more exceedingly an eternal weight of glory;

^{18 Ref} 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; but the things which are not seen are eternal.
