2 Corinthians 5

1 For we have known that if the tent of our earthly house may be thrown down, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands—perpetual—in the heavens, (aiōnios g166)

aparam asmākam etasmin pārthive dūṣyarūpe veśmani jīrṇe satīśvareṇa nirmmitam akarakṛtam asmākam anantakālasthāyi veśmaikaṁ svarge vidyata iti vayaṁ jānīmaḥ| (aiōnios g166)

2 for also in this we groan, earnestly desiring to clothe ourselves with our dwelling that is from Heaven,

yato hetoretasmin veśmani tiṣṭhanto vayaṁ taṁ svargīyaṁ vāsaṁ paridhātum ākāṅkṣyamāṇā niḥśvasāmaḥ|

3 if so be that, having clothed ourselves, we will not be found naked,

tathāpīdānīmapi vayaṁ tena na nagnāḥ kintu parihitavasanā manyāmahe|

4 for we also who are in the tent groan, being burdened, seeing we do not wish to unclothe ourselves, but to clothe ourselves, that the mortal may be swallowed up of life.

etasmin dūṣye tiṣṭhanato vayaṁ kliśyamānā niḥśvasāmaḥ, yato vayaṁ vāsaṁ tyaktum icchāmastannahi kintu taṁ dvitīyaṁ vāsaṁ paridhātum icchāmaḥ, yatastathā kṛte jīvanena martyaṁ grasiṣyate|

5 And He who worked us to this very thing [is] God, who also gave to us the deposit of the Spirit;

etadarthaṁ vayaṁ yena sṛṣṭāḥ sa īśvara eva sa cāsmabhyaṁ satyaṅkārasya paṇasvarūpam ātmānaṁ dattavān|

6 having courage, then, at all times, and knowing that being at home in the body, we are away from home from the LORD—

ataeva vayaṁ sarvvadotsukā bhavāmaḥ kiñca śarīre yāvad asmābhi rnyuṣyate tāvat prabhuto dūre proṣyata iti jānīmaḥ,

7 for we walk through faith, not through sight—

yato vayaṁ dṛṣṭimārge na carāmaḥ kintu viśvāsamārge|

8 we have courage, and are well pleased, rather, to be away from the home of the body, and to be at home with the LORD.

aparañca śarīrād dūre pravastuṁ prabhoḥ sannidhau nivastuñcākāṅkṣyamāṇā utsukā bhavāmaḥ|

9 We are also ambitious for this reason, whether at home or away from home, to be well pleasing to Him,

tasmādeva kāraṇād vayaṁ tasya sannidhau nivasantastasmād dūre pravasanto vā tasmai rocituṁ yatāmahe|

10 for it is necessary for all of us to have appeared before the judgment seat of the Christ, that each one may receive the things [done] through the body, in reference to the things that he did, whether good or evil;

yasmāt śarīrāvasthāyām ekaikena kṛtānāṁ karmmaṇāṁ śubhāśubhaphalaprāptaye sarvvaismābhiḥ khrīṣṭasya vicārāsanasammukha upasthātavyaṁ|

11 having known, therefore, the fear of the LORD, we persuade men, and we are revealed to God, and I also hope to have been revealed in your consciences;

ataeva prabho rbhayānakatvaṁ vijñāya vayaṁ manujān anunayāmaḥ kiñceśvarasya gocare saprakāśā bhavāmaḥ, yuṣmākaṁ saṁvedagocare'pi saprakāśā bhavāma ityāśaṁsāmahe|

12 for we do not again recommend ourselves to you, but we are giving occasion to you of glorifying in our behalf, that you may have [something] in reference to those glorifying in face and not in heart;

anena vayaṁ yuṣmākaṁ sannidhau punaḥ svān praśaṁsāma iti nahi kintu ye mano vinā mukhaiḥ ślāghante tebhyaḥ pratyuttaradānāya yūyaṁ yathāsmābhiḥ ślāghituṁ śaknutha tādṛśam upāyaṁ yuṣmabhyaṁ vitarāmaḥ|

13 for whether we were beside ourselves, [it was] to God; whether we be of sound mind, [it is] to you,

yadi vayaṁ hatajñānā bhavāmastarhi tad īśvarārthakaṁ yadi ca sajñānā bhavāmastarhi tad yuṣmadarthakaṁ|

14 for the love of the Christ constrains us, having judged thus: that if one died for all, then the whole died,

vayaṁ khrīṣṭasya premnā samākṛṣyāmahe yataḥ sarvveṣāṁ vinimayena yadyeko jano'mriyata tarhi te sarvve mṛtā ityāsmābhi rbudhyate|

15 and He died for all, that those living may no longer live to themselves, but to Him who died for them, and was raised again.

aparañca ye jīvanti te yat svārthaṁ na jīvanti kintu teṣāṁ kṛte yo jano mṛtaḥ punarutthāpitaśca tamuddiśya yat jīvanti tadarthameva sa sarvveṣāṁ kṛte mṛtavān|

16 So that we, from now on, have known no one according to the flesh, and even if we have known Christ according to the flesh, yet now we know Him [thus] no longer;

ato hetoritaḥ paraṁ ko'pyasmābhi rjātito na pratijñātavyaḥ|yadyapi pūrvvaṁ khrīṣṭo jātito'smābhiḥ pratijñātastathāpīdānīṁ jātitaḥ puna rna pratijñāyate|

17 so that if anyone [is] in Christ—[he is] a new creature; the old things passed away, behold, all things have become new.

kenacit khrīṣṭa āśrite nūtanā sṛṣṭi rbhavati purātanāni lupyante paśya nikhilāni navīnāni bhavanti|

18 And all things [are] of God, who reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and gave to us the ministry of the reconciliation,

sarvvañcaitad īśvarasya karmma yato yīśukhrīṣṭena sa evāsmān svena sārddhaṁ saṁhitavān sandhānasambandhīyāṁ paricaryyām asmāsu samarpitavāṁśca|

19 how that God was in Christ—reconciling the world to Himself, not reckoning to them their trespasses; and having put in us the word of the reconciliation,

yataḥ īśvaraḥ khrīṣṭam adhiṣṭhāya jagato janānām āgāṁsi teṣām ṛṇamiva na gaṇayan svena sārddhaṁ tān saṁhitavān sandhivārttām asmāsu samarpitavāṁśca|

20 in behalf of Christ, then, we are ambassadors, as if God were calling through us, we implore, in behalf of Christ, “Be reconciled to God”;

ato vayaṁ khrīṣṭasya vinimayena dautyaṁ karmma sampādayāmahe, īśvaraścāsmābhi ryuṣmān yāyācyate tataḥ khrīṣṭasya vinimayena vayaṁ yuṣmān prārthayāmahe yūyamīśvareṇa sandhatta|

21 He made Him having not known sin [to be] sin in our behalf, that we may become the righteousness of God in Him.

yato vayaṁ tena yad īśvarīyapuṇyaṁ bhavāmastadarthaṁ pāpena saha yasya jñāteyaṁ nāsīt sa eva tenāsmākaṁ vinimayena pāpaḥ kṛtaḥ|
