2 Corinthians 4
Young's Literal Translation (YLT)
16 Ref wherefore, we faint not, but if also our outward man doth decay, yet the inward is renewed day by day;
17 Ref for the momentary light matter of our tribulation, more and more exceedingly an age-during weight of glory doth work out for us --
18 Ref we not looking to the things seen, but to the things not seen; for the things seen `are' temporary, but the things not seen `are' age-during.
King James Version (KJV)
16 Ref For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.
17 Ref For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and 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.
Bible in Basic English (BBE)
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.
