2 Corinthians 4
1 Therefore, seeing that we haue this ministerie, as we haue receiued mercy, we faint not:
aparañca vayaṁ karuṇābhājo bhūtvā yad etat paricārakapadam alabhāmahi nātra klāmyāmaḥ,
2 But haue cast from vs ye clokes of shame, and walke not in craftines, neither handle we the worde of God deceitfully: but in declaration of the trueth we approue our selues to euery mans conscience in the sight of God.
kintu trapāyuktāni pracchannakarmmāṇi vihāya kuṭilatācaraṇamakurvvanta īśvarīyavākyaṁ mithyāvākyairamiśrayantaḥ satyadharmmasya prakāśaneneśvarasya sākṣāt sarvvamānavānāṁ saṁvedagocare svān praśaṁsanīyān darśayāmaḥ|
3 If our Gospell bee then hid, it is hid to them that are lost.
asmābhi rghoṣitaḥ susaṁvādo yadi pracchannaḥ; syāt tarhi ye vinaṁkṣyanti teṣāmeva dṛṣṭitaḥ sa pracchannaḥ;
4 In whom the God of this world hath blinded the mindes, that is, of the infidels, that the light of the glorious Gospell of Christ, which is the image of God, should not shine vnto them. (aiōn g165)
yata īśvarasya pratimūrtti ryaḥ khrīṣṭastasya tejasaḥ susaṁvādasya prabhā yat tān na dīpayet tadartham iha lokasya devo'viśvāsināṁ jñānanayanam andhīkṛtavān etasyodāharaṇaṁ te bhavanti| (aiōn g165)
5 For we preach not our selues, but Christ Iesus the Lord, and our selues your seruaunts for Iesus sake.
vayaṁ svān ghoṣayāma iti nahi kintu khrīṣṭaṁ yīśuṁ prabhumevāsmāṁśca yīśoḥ kṛte yuṣmākaṁ paricārakān ghoṣayāmaḥ|
6 For God that commanded the light to shine out of darknesse, is he which hath shined in our hearts, to giue the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Iesus Christ.
ya īśvaro madhyetimiraṁ prabhāṁ dīpanāyādiśat sa yīśukhrīṣṭasyāsya īśvarīyatejaso jñānaprabhāyā udayārtham asmākam antaḥkaraṇeṣu dīpitavān|
7 But we haue this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellencie of that power might be of God, and not of vs.
aparaṁ tad dhanam asmābhi rmṛṇmayeṣu bhājaneṣu dhāryyate yataḥ sādbhutā śakti rnāsmākaṁ kintvīśvarasyaiveti jñātavyaṁ|
8 Wee are afflicted on euery side, yet are we not in distresse: we are in doubt, but yet wee despaire not.
vayaṁ pade pade pīḍyāmahe kintu nāvasīdāmaḥ, vayaṁ vyākulāḥ santo'pi nirupāyā na bhavāmaḥ;
9 We are persecuted, but not forsaken: cast downe, but we perish not.
vayaṁ pradrāvyamānā api na klāmyāmaḥ, nipātitā api na vinaśyāmaḥ|
10 Euery where we beare about in our bodie the dying of the Lord Iesus, that the life of Iesus might also be made manifest in our bodies.
asmākaṁ śarīre khrīṣṭasya jīvanaṁ yat prakāśeta tadarthaṁ tasmin śarīre yīśo rmaraṇamapi dhārayāmaḥ|
11 For we which liue, are alwaies deliuered vnto death for Iesus sake, that the life also of Iesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh.
yīśo rjīvanaṁ yad asmākaṁ marttyadehe prakāśeta tadarthaṁ jīvanto vayaṁ yīśoḥ kṛte nityaṁ mṛtyau samarpyāmahe|
12 So then death worketh in vs, and life in you.
itthaṁ vayaṁ mṛtyākrāntā yūyañca jīvanākrāntāḥ|
13 And because we haue the same spirite of faith, according as it is written, I beleeued, and therefore haue I spoken, we also beleeue, and therefore speake,
viśvāsakāraṇādeva samabhāṣi mayā vacaḥ| iti yathā śāstre likhitaṁ tathaivāsmābhirapi viśvāsajanakam ātmānaṁ prāpya viśvāsaḥ kriyate tasmācca vacāṁsi bhāṣyante|
14 Knowing that he which hath raised vp the Lord Iesus, shall raise vs vp also by Iesus, and shall set vs with you.
prabhu ryīśu ryenotthāpitaḥ sa yīśunāsmānapyutthāpayiṣyati yuṣmābhiḥ sārddhaṁ svasamīpa upasthāpayiṣyati ca, vayam etat jānīmaḥ|
15 For all thinges are for your sakes, that that most plenteous grace by the thankesgiuing of many, may redound to the praise of God.
ataeva yuṣmākaṁ hitāya sarvvameva bhavati tasmād bahūnāṁ pracurānugrahaprāpte rbahulokānāṁ dhanyavādeneśvarasya mahimā samyak prakāśiṣyate|
16 Therefore we faint not, but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed daily.
tato heto rvayaṁ na klāmyāmaḥ kintu bāhyapuruṣo yadyapi kṣīyate tathāpyāntarikaḥ puruṣo dine dine nūtanāyate|
17 For our light affliction which is but for a moment, causeth vnto vs a farre most excellent and an eternall waight of glorie: (aiōnios g166)
kṣaṇamātrasthāyi yadetat laghiṣṭhaṁ duḥkhaṁ tad atibāhulyenāsmākam anantakālasthāyi gariṣṭhasukhaṁ sādhayati, (aiōnios g166)
18 While we looke not on the thinges which are seene, but on the things which are not seene: for the things which are seene, are temporall: but the things which are not seene, are eternall. (aiōnios g166)
yato vayaṁ pratyakṣān viṣayān anuddiśyāpratyakṣān uddiśāmaḥ| yato hetoḥ pratyakṣaviṣayāḥ kṣaṇamātrasthāyinaḥ kintvapratyakṣā anantakālasthāyinaḥ| (aiōnios g166)
