< 2 Corinthians 6 >
1 We then, as workers together with him, beseech you also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain.

2 ( For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)
tenoktametat, saMshroShyAmi shubhe kAle tvadIyAM prArthanAm ahaM| upakAraM kariShyAmi paritrANadine tava| pashyatAyaM shubhakAlaH pashyatedaM trANadinaM|
3 Giving no offence in any thing, that the ministry be not blamed:
asmAkaM paricharyyA yanniShkala NkA bhavet tadarthaM vayaM kutrApi vighnaM na janayAmaH,
4 But in all things approving ourselves as the ministers of God, in much patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses,
kintu prachurasahiShNutA klesho dainyaM vipat tADanA kArAbandhanaM nivAsahInatvaM parishramo jAgaraNam upavasanaM
5 In stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labours, in watchings, in fastings;
nirmmalatvaM j nAnaM mR^idushIlatA hitaiShitA
6 By pureness, by knowledge, by longsuffering, by kindness, by the Holy Ghost, by love unfeigned,
pavitra AtmA niShkapaTaM prema satyAlApa IshvarIyashakti
7 By the word of truth, by the power of God, by the armour of righteousness on the right hand and on the left,
rdakShiNavAmAbhyAM karAbhyAM dharmmAstradhAraNaM
8 By honour and dishonour, by evil report and good report: as deceivers, and yet true;
mAnApamAnayorakhyAtisukhyAtyo rbhAgitvam etaiH sarvvairIshvarasya prashaMsyAn parichArakAn svAn prakAshayAmaH|
9 As unknown, and yet well known; as dying, and, behold, we live; as chastened, and not killed;
bhramakasamA vayaM satyavAdino bhavAmaH, aparichitasamA vayaM suparichitA bhavAmaH, mR^itakalpA vayaM jIvAmaH, daNDyamAnA vayaM na hanyAmahe,
10 As sorrowful, yet alway rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and yet possessing all things.
shokayuktAshcha vayaM sadAnandAmaH, daridrA vayaM bahUn dhaninaH kurmmaH, aki nchanAshcha vayaM sarvvaM dhArayAmaH|
11 O ye Corinthians, our mouth is open unto you, our heart is enlarged.
he karinthinaH, yuShmAkaM prati mamAsyaM muktaM mamAntaHkaraNA ncha vikasitaM|
12 Ye are not straitened in us, but ye are straitened in your own bowels.
yUyaM mamAntare na sa NkochitAH ki ncha yUyameva sa NkochitachittAH|
13 Now for a recompence in the same, ( I speak as unto my children, ) be ye also enlarged.
kintu mahyaM nyAyyaphaladAnArthaM yuShmAbhirapi vikasitai rbhavitavyam ityahaM nijabAlakAniva yuShmAn vadAmi|
14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?
aparam apratyayibhiH sArddhaM yUyam ekayuge baddhA mA bhUta, yasmAd dharmmAdharmmayoH kaH sambandho. asti? timireNa sarddhaM prabhAyA vA kA tulanAsti?
15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?
bilIyAladevena sAkaM khrIShTasya vA kA sandhiH? avishvAsinA sArddhaM vA vishvAsilokasyAMshaH kaH?
16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
Ishvarasya mandireNa saha vA devapratimAnAM kA tulanA? amarasyeshvarasya mandiraM yUyameva| IshvareNa taduktaM yathA, teShAM madhye. ahaM svAvAsaM nidhAsyAmi teShAM madhye cha yAtAyAtaM kurvvan teShAm Ishvaro bhaviShyAmi te cha mallokA bhaviShyanti|
17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you,
ato hetoH parameshvaraH kathayati yUyaM teShAM madhyAd bahirbhUya pR^ithag bhavata, kimapyamedhyaM na spR^ishata; tenAhaM yuShmAn grahIShyAmi,
18 And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.
