2 Corinthians 4:4-6
International Children’s Bible
4 The devil who rules this world has blinded the minds of those who do not believe. They cannot see the light of the Good News—the Good News about the glory of Christ, who is exactly like God. 5 We do not preach about ourselves. But we preach that Jesus Christ is Lord; and we preach that we are your servants for Jesus. 6 God once said, “Let the light shine out of the darkness!” And this is the same God who made his light shine in our hearts. He gave us light by letting us know the glory of God that is in the face of Christ.

2 Corinthians 4:4-6
New International Version
4 The god(A) of this age(B) has blinded(C) the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel that displays the glory of Christ,(D) who is the image of God.(E) 5 For what we preach is not ourselves,(F) but Jesus Christ as Lord,(G) and ourselves as your servants(H) for Jesus’ sake. 6 For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,”[a](I) made his light shine in our hearts(J) to give us the light of the knowledge of God’s glory displayed in the face of Christ.(K)
