14But thanks be to God, who always leads us triumphantly as captives in Christ and through us spreads everywhere the fragrance of the knowledge of Him.
15For we are to God the sweet aroma of Christ among those who are being saved and those who are perishing.
16To the one, we are an odor of death and demise; to the other, a fragrance that brings life. And who is qualified for such a task?
17For we are not like so many others, who peddle the word of God for profit. On the contrary, in Christ we speak before God with sincerity, as men sent from God.
