2 Corinthians 1:9-11

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁹ Indeed, we felt that we had received the sentence of death so that we would rely not on ourselves but on God who raises the dead. ¹⁰ He who rescued us from so deadly a peril will continue to rescue us; on him we have set our hope that he will rescue us again, ¹¹ as you also join in helping us by your prayers, so that many will give thanks on our^[a] behalf for the blessing granted us through the prayers of many.
