< 2 Corinthians 13 >

1 I come to you this third time; on the mouth of two or three witnesses will every saying be established;
Ecce tertio hoc venio ad vos: In ore duorum, vel trium testium stabit omne verbum.
2 I have said before, and I say [it] before, as being present, the second time, and being absent, now, I write to those having sinned before, and to all the rest, that if I come again, I will not spare,
Prædixi, et prædico, ut præsens, et nunc absens iis, qui ante peccaverunt, et ceteris omnibus, quoniam si venero iterum, non parcam.
3 since you seek a proof of the Christ speaking in me, who is not weak to you, but is powerful in you,
An experimentum quæritis eius, qui in me loquitur Christus, qui in vobis non infirmatur, sed potens est in vobis?
4 for even if He was crucified from weakness, yet He lives from the power of God; for we also are weak in Him, but we will live with Him from the power of God toward you.
Nam etsi crucifixus est ex infirmitate: sed vivit ex virtute Dei. Nam et nos infirmi sumus in illo: sed vivemus cum eo ex virtute Dei in vobis.
5 Try yourselves, if you are in the faith; prove yourselves; do you not know yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you, if you are not disapproved of in some respect?
Vosmetipsos tentate si estis in fide: ipsi vos probate. An non cognoscitis vosmetipsos quia Christus Iesus in vobis est? nisi forte reprobi estis.
6 And I hope that you will know that we are not disapproved of;
Spero autem quod cognoscetis, quia nos non sumus reprobi.
7 and I pray before God that you do no evil, not that we may appear approved, but that you may do that which is right, and we may be as disapproved;
Oramus autem Deum ut nihil mali faciatis, non ut nos probati appareamus, sed ut vos quod bonum est faciatis: nos autem ut reprobi simus.
8 for we are not able to do anything against the truth, but for the truth;
Non enim possumus aliquid adversus veritatem, sed pro veritate.
9 for we rejoice when we may be weak, but you may be powerful; and we also pray for this—your perfection!
Gaudemus enim, quoniam nos infirmi sumus, vos autem potentes estis. Hoc et oramus vestram consummationem.
10 Because of this, these things—being absent—I write, that being present, I may not treat [any] sharply, according to the authority that the LORD gave me for building up, and not for casting down.
Ideo hæc absens scribo, ut non præsens durius agam secundum potestatem, quam Dominus dedit mihi in ædificationem, et non in destructionem.
11 From now on, brothers, rejoice; be made perfect, be comforted, be of the same mind, be at peace, and the God of love and peace will be with you.
De cetero, fratres, gaudete, perfecti estote, exhortamini, idem sapite, pacem habete, et Deus pacis, et dilectionis erit vobiscum.
12 Greet one another in a holy kiss.
Salutate invicem in osculo sancto.
13 All the holy ones greet you.
Salutant vos omnes sancti.
14 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, [is] with you all! Amen.
Gratia Domini nostri Iesu Christi, et charitas Dei, et communicatio Sancti Spiritus sit cum omnibus vobis. Amen.
