2 Corinthians 13
1 This is the third time I am coming to you. “At the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established.”
etattṛtīyavāram ahaṁ yuṣmatsamīpaṁ gacchāmi tena sarvvā kathā dvayostrayāṇāṁ vā sākṣiṇāṁ mukhena niśceṣyate|
2 As I already said while with you the second time, I now repeat in writing while absent, to those who sinned before and to all the rest: If I come again I will not spare,
pūrvvaṁ ye kṛtapāpāstebhyo'nyebhyaśca sarvvebhyo mayā pūrvvaṁ kathitaṁ, punarapi vidyamānenevedānīm avidyamānena mayā kathyate, yadā punarāgamiṣyāmi tadāhaṁ na kṣamiṣye|
3 since you want proof that Christ is speaking through me—He who is not weak toward you but powerful among you
khrīṣṭo mayā kathāṁ kathayatyetasya pramāṇaṁ yūyaṁ mṛgayadhve, sa tu yuṣmān prati durbbalo nahi kintu sabala eva|
4 (although He was crucified in weakness, He lives by the power of God). Now we also are weak in Him, but we will live with Him by the power of God toward you.
yadyapi sa durbbalatayā kruśa āropyata tathāpīśvarīyaśaktayā jīvati; vayamapi tasmin durbbalā bhavāmaḥ, tathāpi yuṣmān prati prakāśitayeśvarīyaśaktyā tena saha jīviṣyāmaḥ|
5 Examine yourselves as to whether you are in the faith; test yourselves. Do you yourselves really not know that Jesus Christ is in you?—unless indeed you are disqualified.
ato yūyaṁ viśvāsayuktā ādhve na veti jñātumātmaparīkṣāṁ kurudhvaṁ svānevānusandhatta| yīśuḥ khrīṣṭo yuṣmanmadhye vidyate svānadhi tat kiṁ na pratijānītha? tasmin avidyamāne yūyaṁ niṣpramāṇā bhavatha|
6 Well I trust that you will know that we are not disqualified.
kintu vayaṁ niṣpramāṇā na bhavāma iti yuṣmābhi rbhotsyate tatra mama pratyāśā jāyate|
7 Now I pray to God that you do no evil; not that we may appear approved, but that you may do what is right (even though we may appear to have failed).
yūyaṁ kimapi kutsitaṁ karmma yanna kurutha tadaham īśvaramuddiśya prārthaye| vayaṁ yat prāmāṇikā iva prakāśāmahe tadarthaṁ tat prārthayāmaha iti nahi, kintu yūyaṁ yat sadācāraṁ kurutha vayañca niṣpramāṇā iva bhavāmastadarthaṁ|
8 For we cannot do anything against the Truth, but only for the Truth.
yataḥ satyatāyā vipakṣatāṁ karttuṁ vayaṁ na samarthāḥ kintu satyatāyāḥ sāhāyyaṁ karttumeva|
9 Now we are glad when we are weak and you are strong. And we also pray for this, your perfecting.
vayaṁ yadā durbbalā bhavāmastadā yuṣmān sabalān dṛṣṭvānandāmo yuṣmākaṁ siddhatvaṁ prārthayāmahe ca|
10 This is why I write these things while absent, so that when present I may not have to deal harshly, according to the authority that the Lord gave me, for building up and not for tearing down.
ato hetoḥ prabhu ryuṣmākaṁ vināśāya nahi kintu niṣṭhāyai yat sāmarthyam asmabhyaṁ dattavān tena yad upasthitikāle kāṭhinyaṁ mayācaritavyaṁ na bhavet tadartham anupasthitena mayā sarvvāṇyetāni likhyante|
11 Finally, brothers, rejoice; restore each other; encourage one another; be of one mind; live in peace; and the God of the love and the peace will be with you.
he bhrātaraḥ, śeṣe vadāmi yūyam ānandata siddhā bhavata parasparaṁ prabodhayata, ekamanaso bhavata praṇayabhāvam ācarata| premaśāntyorākara īśvaro yuṣmākaṁ sahāyo bhūyāt|
12 Greet one another with a holy kiss.
yūyaṁ pavitracumbanena parasparaṁ namaskurudhvaṁ|
13 All the saints greet you.
pavitralokāḥ sarvve yuṣmān namanti|
14 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all. Amen.
prabho ryīśukhrīṣṭasyānugraha īśvarasya prema pavitrasyātmano bhāgitvañca sarvvān yuṣmān prati bhūyāt| tathāstu|
