God considers us to be the pleasing smell that Christ is spreading. He is spreading it among people who are being saved and people who are dying.

因为我们在神面前，无论在得救的人身上或灭亡的人身上，都有基督馨香之气。

因为无论在得救的人或在灭亡的人当中，我们都是基督馨香之气，是献给上帝的。

因为无论在得救的人或在灭亡的人当中，我们都是基督馨香之气，是献给神的。

不论是在得救的人当中还是在灭亡的人当中，对上帝来说，我们都是基督的馨香之气。

因为无论在得救的人或灭亡的人中间，我们都是基督的馨香，是献给神的。

因為無論在那得救着的人中間、或是在那滅亡着的人中間、我們都是基督馨香之氣、獻與上帝：

因為在神面前，無論在得救的人中間，還是在滅亡的人中間，我們都是基督的馨香：

蓋於上帝前我在得救者及沉淪者中、為基督之馨香、

上帝使我為基督之香、俾得救及沉淪臭之、

蓋我儕於天主前、為基督之馨香、於得救者、亦於沈淪者、

蓋吾人乃基督所獻於天主之馨香也；蒙救者聞焉、沉淪者亦聞焉；

For we are to God the pleasing aroma of Christ among those who are being saved and those who are perishing.

For we are the aroma of Christ to God among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing,

Our lives are a Christ like fragrance rising up to God. But this fragrance is perceived differently by those who are being saved and by those who are perishing.

For to God we are the fragrance of Christ among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing.

For we are a fragrance of Christ to God among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing:

For we are to God the fragrance of Christ among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing.

For we are a sweet savor of Christ unto God, in them that are saved, and in them that perish;

For to God we are the fragrance of Christ among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing.

For we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ, in them that are saved, and in them that perish:

For we are a sweet aroma of Christ to God among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing–

For we are a sweet aroma of Christ to God, in those who are saved and in those who perish:

The message of the cross seems foolish to those who are lost and dying. But it is God’s power to us who are being saved.

Lead a life of love, just as Christ did. He loved us. He gave himself up for us. He was a sweet- smelling offering and sacrifice to God.

I will bring you back from the nations. I will gather you together from the countries where you have been scattered. Then I will accept you as if you were sweet- smelling incense. I will show that I am holy among you. The nations will see it.

I have received my full pay and have more than enough. I have everything I need. That’s because Epaphroditus brought me the gifts you sent. They are a sweet- smelling offering. They are a gift that God accepts. He is pleased with it.

Suppose our good news is covered with a veil. Then it is veiled to those who are dying.The god of this world has blinded the minds of those who don’t believe. They can’t see the light of the good news that makes Christ’s glory clear. Christ is the likeness of God.

So people who are dying will be fooled by this evil. These people are dying because they refuse to love the truth. The truth would save them.

Then take all these things from their hands. Burn them on the altar along with the burnt offering. Its smell pleases the Lord. It is a food offering presented to the Lord.

The Lord formed me in my mother’s body to be his servant. He wanted me to bring the family of Jacob back to him. He wanted me to gather the people of Israel to himself. The Lord will honor me. My God will give me strength.Here is what the Lord says to me.“ It is not enough for you as my servant to bring the tribes of Jacob back to their land. It is not enough for you to bring back the people of Israel I have kept alive. I will also make you a light for the Gentiles. Then you will make it possible for the whole world to be saved.”

The smell of the offerings pleased the Lord. He said to himself,“ I will never put a curse on the ground again because of human beings. I will not do it even though their hearts are always directed toward evil. Their thoughts are evil from the time they are young. I will never destroy all living things again, as I have just done.

Then burn the whole ram on the altar. It is a burnt offering to me. It has a pleasant smell. It is a food offering presented to the Lord.
