< 2 Corinthians 7 >
1 Having therefore these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from every filthiness of flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in fear of God.
ataēva hē priyatamāḥ, ētādr̥śīḥ pratijñāḥ prāptairasmābhiḥ śarīrātmanōḥ sarvvamālinyam apamr̥jyēśvarasya bhaktyā pavitrācāraḥ sādhyatāṁ|
2 Make room for us. We wronged no man, we corrupted no man, we exploited no man.
yūyam asmān gr̥hlīta| asmābhiḥ kasyāpyanyāyō na kr̥taḥ kō'pi na vañcitaḥ|
3 I speak not for condemnation, for I have said before that ye are in our hearts to die together and to live together.
yuṣmān dōṣiṇaḥ karttamahaṁ vākyamētad vadāmīti nahi yuṣmābhiḥ saha jīvanāya maraṇāya vā vayaṁ yuṣmān svāntaḥkaraṇai rdhārayāma iti pūrvvaṁ mayōktaṁ|
4 Great is my boldness toward you, great is my pride for you. I have been filled with encouragement. I over-abound with joy in all our affliction.
yuṣmān prati mama mahētsāhō jāyatē yuṣmān adhyahaṁ bahu ślāghē ca tēna sarvvaklēśasamayē'haṁ sāntvanayā pūrṇō harṣēṇa praphullitaśca bhavāmi|
5 For even when we came into Macedonia our flesh had not one relief, but being oppressed in everything: battles outside, fears within.
asmāsu mākidaniyādēśam āgatēṣvasmākaṁ śarīrasya kācidapi śānti rnābhavat kintu sarvvatō bahi rvirōdhēnāntaśca bhītyā vayam apīḍyāmahi|
6 Nevertheless God, who encourages the lowly, encouraged us by the arrival of Titus.
kintu namrāṇāṁ sāntvayitā ya īśvaraḥ sa tītasyāgamanēnāsmān asāntvayat|
7 And not only by his presence, but also by the encouragement with which he was encouraged by you, reporting to us your earnest desire, your mourning, your zeal for me, so that I rejoiced the more.
kēvalaṁ tasyāgamanēna tannahi kintu yuṣmattō jātayā tasya sāntvanayāpi, yatō'smāsu yuṣmākaṁ hārddavilāpāsaktatvēṣvasmākaṁ samīpē varṇitēṣu mama mahānandō jātaḥ|
8 Because even though I grieved you in the letter, I am not remorseful (even though I was remorseful), for I perceive that that letter grieved you, even though for an hour.
ahaṁ patrēṇa yuṣmān śōkayuktān kr̥tavān ityasmād anvatapyē kintvadhunā nānutapyē| tēna patrēṇa yūyaṁ kṣaṇamātraṁ śōkayuktībhūtā iti mayā dr̥śyatē|
9 Now I rejoice, not that ye were grieved, but that ye were grieved for repentance. For ye were grieved toward God, so that ye might suffer loss from us in nothing.
ityasmin yuṣmākaṁ śōkēnāhaṁ hr̥ṣyāmi tannahi kintu manaḥparivarttanāya yuṣmākaṁ śōkō'bhavad ityanēna hr̥ṣyāmi yatō'smattō yuṣmākaṁ kāpi hāni ryanna bhavēt tadarthaṁ yuṣmākam īśvarīyaḥ śōkō jātaḥ|
10 For sorrow toward God works repentance for salvation without regret, but the sorrow of the world works death.
sa īśvarīyaḥ śōkaḥ paritrāṇajanakaṁ niranutāpaṁ manaḥparivarttanaṁ sādhayati kintu sāṁsārikaḥ śōkō mr̥tyuṁ sādhayati|
11 For behold this same thing-your grieving toward God. How much eagerness it worked in you, even a defense, even indignation, even fear, even longing, even zeal, even vengeance! In everything ye demonstrated yourselves to be pure in the matter.
paśyata tēnēśvarīyēṇa śōkēna yuṣmākaṁ kiṁ na sādhitaṁ? yatnō dōṣaprakṣālanam asantuṣṭatvaṁ hārddam āsaktatvaṁ phaladānañcaitāni sarvvāṇi| tasmin karmmaṇi yūyaṁ nirmmalā iti pramāṇaṁ sarvvēṇa prakārēṇa yuṣmābhi rdattaṁ|
12 And so then, although I wrote to you, it was not because of the man who did wrong, nor because of the man who was wronged, but in order to reveal to you your eagerness for us in the sight of God.
yēnāparāddhaṁ tasya kr̥tē kiṁvā yasyāparāddhaṁ tasya kr̥tē mayā patram alēkhi tannahi kintu yuṣmānadhyasmākaṁ yatnō yad īśvarasya sākṣād yuṣmatsamīpē prakāśēta tadarthamēva|
13 Because of this we have been encouraged. And from your encouragement, we rejoiced to a greater degree more at the joy of Titus, because his spirit has been refreshed by you all.
uktakāraṇād vayaṁ sāntvanāṁ prāptāḥ; tāñca sāntvanāṁ vināvarō mahāhlādastītasyāhlādādasmābhi rlabdhaḥ, yatastasyātmā sarvvai ryuṣmābhistr̥ptaḥ|
14 Because, if I have boasted anything to him about you, I am not ashamed, but as we spoke all things in truth to you, so also our boast to Titus became truth.
pūrvvaṁ tasya samīpē'haṁ yuṣmābhiryad aślāghē tēna nālajjē kintu vayaṁ yadvad yuṣmān prati satyabhāvēna sakalam abhāṣāmahi tadvat tītasya samīpē'smākaṁ ślāghanamapi satyaṁ jātaṁ|
15 And his bowels are more abundant toward you, remembering the obedience of you all, how ye received him with fear and trembling.
yūyaṁ kīdr̥k tasyājñā apālayata bhayakampābhyāṁ taṁ gr̥hītavantaścaitasya smaraṇād yuṣmāsu tasya snēhō bāhulyēna varttatē|
16 I rejoice that I have confidence in you in everything.
yuṣmāsvahaṁ sarvvamāśaṁsē, ityasmin mamāhlādō jāyatē|
