2 Corinthians 13
1 Behold, this is the third time I am coming to you: In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word stand.
今や我三度汝等に至とす、二三の證人の口に由りて、凡ての事決せらるべし。
2 I have told before, and foretell, as present, and now absent, to them that sinned before, and to all the rest, that if I come again, I will not spare.
既に告げし事ながら、今我其處に居らざれども居ると等しく、前に罪を犯しし人々及び他の凡ての人にも告ぐ、我再び至らば決して恕さじ。
3 Do you seek a proof of Christ that speaketh in me, who towards you is not weak, but is mighty in you?
汝等キリストの我に於て語り給ふ證據を求めんとすれば、キリストは汝等に向ひて弱く在さず、汝等の中に大いに能力あり。
4 For although he was crucified through weakness, yet he liveth by the power of God. For we also are weak in him: but we shall live with him by the power of God towards you.
蓋弱きによりて十字架に釘けられ給ひしかど、神の力によりて活き給へばなり。即ち我等も彼に於て弱しと雖も、神の力によりて彼と共に汝等の中に活きんとす、
5 Try your own selves if you be in the faith; prove ye yourselves. Know you not your own selves, that Christ Jesus is in you, unless perhaps you be reprobates?
汝等信仰に在るや否やを、自ら試み自ら證せよ、汝等の中にキリストの在す事を自ら知らざるか、或は非認せられたる者なるか、
6 But I trust that you shall know that we are not reprobates.
我は我等の非認せられたる者に非ざるを汝等の知らん事を希望す。
7 Now we pray God, that you may do no evil, not that we may appear approved, but that you may do that which is good, and that we may be as reprobates.
我等が神に祈るは、汝等の豪も惡を為さざらん事是なり。是我等の是認せられたる事の顕れん為に非ずして、假令我等は非認せらるとも、汝等が善事を行はん為なり。
8 For we can do nothing against the truth; but for the truth.
蓋我等は眞理の為に力あり、之に背きては何事も能はざればなり。
9 For we rejoice that we are weak, and you are strong. This also we pray for, your perfection.
我は我等の弱く汝等の強きを喜ぶ、又我が祈る所は汝等の改善なり。
10 Therefore I write these things, being absent, that, being present, I may not deal more severely, according to the power which the Lord hath given me unto edification, and not unto destruction.
不在にして是等の事を書贈るは我が至らん時、亡ぼさん為ならで立てん為に主より賜りたる権力を以て、餘りに厳しくせざらんとてなり。
11 For the rest, brethren, rejoice, be perfect, take exhortation, be of one mind, have peace; and the God of peace and of love shall be with you.
其外兄弟等よ、汝等喜び且完全にして、相慰め、心を同うして平和を保て、然らば平和と愛との神は汝等と共に在さん。
12 Salute one another with a holy kiss.
聖なる接吻を以て互に宜しく言へ、
13 All the saints salute you.
聖徒等皆汝等に宜しくと言へり。
14 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the charity of God, and the communication of the Holy Ghost be with you all. Amen.
願はくは我主イエズス、キリストの恩寵と、神の寵愛と、聖霊の交際と、汝等一同と共に在らん事を、アメン。
