Therefore we are always full of courage, and we know that as long as we are alive here on earth ¹  we are absent from the Lord –

But thanks be to God who always leads us in triumphal procession ¹  in Christ ²  and who makes known ³  through us the fragrance that consists of the knowledge of him in every place.

always carrying around in our body the death of Jesus, ¹  so that the life of Jesus may also be made visible ²  in our body.

And God is able to make all grace overflow ¹  to you so that because you have enough ²  of everything in every way at all times, you will overflow ³  in every good work.
