And all things are of God,
---who hath reconciled us to Himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation;
---To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto Himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them;
---and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.
Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God.
For He hath made him to be sin for us,
who knew no sin;
---that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him.
