The Bible (sometimes The Book or Good Book; from Greek (τα) βιβλια, (ta) biblia, (the) books, plural of βιβλιον, biblion, "book", originally a diminutive of βιβλος, biblos, which in turn is derived from βυβλος—byblos, meaning "papyrus", from the ancient Phoenician city of Byblos which exported this writing material), is the classical name for the Hebrew Bible of Judaism or the combination of the Old Testament and New Testament of Christianity ("The Bible" therefore actually refers to at least two different Bibles). It is thus applied to sacred scriptures. Many Christian English speakers refer to the Christian Bible as "the good book". For many people, their Bible is the revealed word of God or an authoritative record of the relationship between God, the world, and humankind. Both Bibles have been the most widely distributed of books. It has also been translated more times, and into more languages, than any other book. The complete Bible, or portions of it, have been translated into more than 2,100 languages. It is said that more than 5 billion copies of the Bible have been sold since 1815, making it the biggest selling book of all-time.

Chapter 1

1: Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timothy our brother, unto the church of God which is at Corinth, with all the saints which are in all Achaia:

2: Grace be to you and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

3: Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort;

4: Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble,by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.

5: For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also aboundeth by Christ.

6: And whether we be afflicted, it is for your consolation and salvation, which is effectual in the enduring of the same sufferings which we also suffer: or whether we be comforted, it is for your consolation and salvation.

7: And our hope of you is stedfast, knowing, that as ye are partakers of the sufferings, so shall ye be also of the consolation.

8: For we would not, brethren, have you ignorant of our trouble which came to us in Asia, that we were pressed out of measure,above strength, insomuch that we despaired even of life:

9: But we had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God which raiseth thedead:

10: Who delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver: in whom we trust that he will yetdeliver us;

11: Ye also helping together by prayer for us, that for the gift bestowed upon us by the means of many persons thanks may be given by many on our behalf.

12: For our rejoicing is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity and godly sincerity, not withfleshly wisdom, but by the grace of God, we have had our conversation in the world, and more abundantly to you-ward.

13: For we write none other things unto you, than what ye read or acknowledge; and I trust ye shall acknowledge even to the end;

14: As also ye have acknowledged us in part, that we are your rejoicing, even as ye also are our's in the day of the Lord Jesus.

15: And in this confidence I was minded to come unto you before, that ye might have asecond benefit;

16: And to pass by you into Macedonia, and to come again out of Macedonia unto you, and of you to be brought on my way toward Judaea.

17: When I therefore was thus minded, did I use lightness? or the things that I purpose, do I purpose according to the flesh, that with me there should be yea yea, and nay nay?

18: But as God is true, our word toward you was not yea and nay.

19: For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us, even by me and Silvanus and Timotheus, was not yea and nay, but in him was yea.

20: For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us.

21: Now he which stablisheth us with you in Christ, and hath anointed us, is God;

22: Who hath also sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.

23: Moreover I call God for a record upon my soul, that to spare you I came not as yet untoCorinth.

24: Not for that we have dominion over your faith, but are helpers of your joy: for by faith ye stand.
