But even as the good news was given to us by the approval of God, so we give it out; not as pleasing men, but God by whom our hearts are tested.

αλλα καθως εδοκιμασθημεν υπο του Θεου δια να εμπιστευθωμεν το ευαγγελιον, ουτω λαλουμεν, ουχι ως αρεσκοντες εις ανθρωπους, αλλ' εις τον Θεον τον δοκιμαζοντα τας καρδιας ημων.

But as we were allowed of God to be put in trust with the gospel, even so we speak; not as pleasing men, but God, which trieth our hearts.

But even as we have been approved by God to be entrusted with the Good News, so we speak; not as pleasing men, but God, who tests our hearts.
