So then death worketh in us, but life in you.

Verse 12 is found in chapter 4 of 2 Corinthians. The treasure in jars of clay expresses the combination of the gospel’s value with the fragility of its messengers. The apostle’s weakness allows the extraordinary power to be attributed to God rather than the human instrument.

Darum ist nun der Tod mächtig in uns, aber das Leben in euch.
De manera que la muerte obra en nosotros, y en vosotros la vida.
Ainsi la mort agit en nous, et la vie agit en vous.
Talchè la morte opera in noi, ma la vita in voi.
De maneira que em nós opera a morte, mas em vós a vida.
這樣看來,死是在我們身上運作,生卻在你們身上運作。
