2 Korintus 4:1
Konteks4:1 Therefore, since we have this ministry, just as God has shown us mercy, 1 we do not become discouraged. 2
Ibrani 12:1-3
Konteks12:1 Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, 3 we must get rid of every weight and the sin that clings so closely, and run with endurance the race set out for us, 12:2 keeping our eyes fixed on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of our faith. For the joy set out for him he endured the cross, disregarding its shame, and has taken his seat at the right hand of the throne of God. 4 12:3 Think of him who endured such opposition against himself by sinners, so that you may not grow weary in your souls and give up.


[4:1] 1 tn Grk “just as we have been shown mercy”; ἠλεήθημεν (hlehqhmen) has been translated as a “divine passive” which is a circumlocution for God as the active agent. For clarity this was converted to an active construction with God as subject in the translation.
[4:1] 2 tn Or “we do not lose heart.”
[12:1] 3 tn Grk “having such a great cloud of witnesses surrounding us.”
