哥林多後書 12
1 我自誇固然無益，但我是不得已的。如今我要說到主的顯現和啟示。
To boast (it behooves [me], *N(K)O*) not (is it profitable indeed, *N(K)O*) I will go on (however *N(k)O*) to visions and revelations of [the] Lord.
2 我認得一個在基督裏的人，他前十四年被提到第三層天上去；（或在身內，我不知道；或在身外，我也不知道；只有上帝知道。）
I know a man in Christ ago years fourteen — whether in [the] body not I know, or out of the body not I know, God knows — having been caught up such a man until [the] third heaven.
3 我認得這人；（或在身內，或在身外，我都不知道，只有上帝知道。）
And I know such a man — whether in [the] body or (out of *N(k)O*) the body, not I know, God knows —
4 他被提到樂園裏，聽見隱祕的言語，是人不可說的。
that he was caught up into Paradise and he heard inexpressible declaration which not being permitted to man to speak.
5 為這人，我要誇口；但是為我自己，除了我的軟弱以外，我並不誇口。
Concerning such a man I will boast, concerning however myself not I will boast only except in the weaknesses (of mine; *K*)
6 我就是願意誇口也不算狂，因為我必說實話；只是我禁止不說，恐怕有人把我看高了，過於他在我身上所看見、所聽見的。
If for I shall desire to boast, not I will be a fool; [the] truth for I will be speaking; I refrain however lest anyone to me myself may credit more than what he sees in me, or hears anything of me
7 又恐怕我因所得的啟示甚大，就過於自高，所以有一根刺加在我肉體上，就是撒但的差役要攻擊我，免得我過於自高。
and the by surpassingness of the revelations. (Therefore *NO*) that not I may become conceited, was given to me a thorn in [my] flesh, a messenger of Satan that me he may buffet so that not I may become conceited.
8 為這事，我三次求過主，叫這刺離開我。
For this three times the Lord I begged that it may depart from me.
9 他對我說：「我的恩典夠你用的，因為我的能力是在人的軟弱上顯得完全。」所以，我更喜歡誇自己的軟弱，好叫基督的能力覆庇我。
And He has said to me; Suffices you the grace of Mine; the for power (of mine *K*) in weakness (is finished. *N(k)O*) Most gladly therefore rather will I boast in the weaknesses of mine, so that may rest upon me myself the power of Christ.
10 我為基督的緣故，就以軟弱、凌辱、急難、逼迫、困苦為可喜樂的；因我甚麼時候軟弱，甚麼時候就剛強了。
Therefore I take pleasure in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions (and *N(k)O*) difficulties for Christ; when for I may be weak then strong I am.
11 我成了愚妄人，是被你們強逼的。我本該被你們稱許才是。我雖算不了甚麼，卻沒有一件事在那些最大的使徒以下。
I have become a fool (boasting; *K*) you yourselves me compelled. I myself for was being obliged by you to have been commended; [In] no[thing] for was I inferior to those most eminent most eminent apostles, if even no [thing] I am.
12 我在你們中間，用百般的忍耐，藉着神蹟、奇事、異能顯出使徒的憑據來。
The indeed signs of the apostle were performed among you in all perseverance, (in *k*) signs (both *no*) and in wonders and in miracles.
13 除了我不累着你們這一件事，你們還有甚麼事不及別的教會呢？這不公之處，求你們饒恕我吧。
In what for is it that you were inferior beyond the rest [of the] churches, only except that myself I myself not did burden you? do forgive me wrong this!
14 如今，我打算第三次到你們那裏去，也必不累着你們；因我所求的是你們，不是你們的財物。兒女不該為父母積財，父母該為兒女積財。
Behold third time (this *no*) ready I am to come to you and not I will burden (you; *k*) not for I seek what [is] yours but you. Not for ought the children for the parents to treasure up but the parents for the children;
15 我也甘心樂意為你們的靈魂費財費力。難道我越發愛你們，就越發少得你們的愛嗎？
I myself now most gladly will spend and I will be utterly spent for the souls of you, If (even *k*) more abundantly you (loving *NK(o)*) (less *N(k)O*) I am loved!
16 罷了，我自己並沒有累着你們，你們卻有人說，我是詭詐，用心計牢籠你們。
it should be however, I myself not did burden you; but being crafty by trickery you I caught.
17 我所差到你們那裏去的人，我藉着他們一個人佔過你們的便宜嗎？
Surely not any of whom I have sent to you, through him did I exploit you?
18 我勸了提多到你們那裏去，又差那位兄弟與他同去。提多佔過你們的便宜嗎？我們行事，不同是一個心靈嗎？不同是一個腳蹤嗎？
I urged Titus [to go] and sent with [him] the brother; surely not ever did exploit you Titus? Surely in the same spirit did we walk? Not in the same steps?
19 你們到如今，還想我們是向你們分訴；我們本是在基督裏當上帝面前說話。親愛的弟兄啊，一切的事都是為造就你們。
(Previously *N(K)O*) you have been thinking that to you we are presenting a defense. (before *N(k)O*) (*k*) God in Christ we speak. but all things, beloved, for your edification.
20 我怕我再來的時候，見你們不合我所想望的，你們見我也不合你們所想望的；又怕有紛爭、嫉妒、惱怒、結黨、毀謗、讒言、狂傲、混亂的事。
I fear for lest perhaps having come not such as I wish I may find you, and I myself and I myself may be found by you such as not you do wish, lest perhaps (a quarrel, jealousy, *N(k)O*) anger, contentions slander, gossip, conceit, disorder,
21 且怕我來的時候，我的上帝叫我在你們面前慚愧，又因許多人從前犯罪，行污穢、姦淫、邪蕩的事不肯悔改，我就憂愁。
lest again (when was coming *N(k)O*) (I *no*) (he may humble *NK(o)*) me the God, of mine before you, and I may mourn over many of those having sinned before and not having repented of the impurity and of sexual immorality and of sensuality that they have practiced.
