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."

This is the third time that I prepare to come to you; and in the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established.

2 I have said beforehand, and I do say beforehand, as when I was present the second time, so now, being absent, to those who have sinned before now, and to all the rest, that, if I come again, I will not spare;

I have foretold you, and again I foretell you; as also twice while I was with you I told you, (so) now also being distant I write to those who have sinned, and to the rest of the others; that if I come again I will not spare.

3 seeing that you seek a proof of Messiah who speaks in me; who toward you is not weak, but is powerful in you.

Inasmuch as you demand the proof of the Meshiha who speaketh in me, (of) Him who is not weak among you, but is mighty among you:

4 For indeed he was crucified through weakness, yet he lives through the power of God. For we also are weak in him, but we will live with him through the power of God toward you.

-for though he was crucified in weakness, yet he liveth with the power of Aloha: -so also we are weak with you, but we live with him through the power of Aloha which is among you.

5 Test your own selves, whether you are in the faith. Test your own selves. Or do you not know as to your own selves, that Yeshua the Messiah is in you?—unless indeed you are disqualified.

Prove yourselves, whether in the faith itself you stand; try yourselves. Are you not assured that Jeshu the Meshiha is in you, if you be not reprobates?

6 But I hope that you will know that we are not disqualified.

But I trust you will know that we are not reprobate.

7 Now we pray to God that you do no evil; not that we may appear approved, but that you may do that which is honorable, though we are as reprobate.

But I implore of Aloha that there may not be any thing in you that is evil, that our proving may be seen; but that you may do good, and that we may be as unproved.

8 For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth.

For we are not able to do any thing against the truth, but for the truth.

9 For we rejoice when we are weak and you are strong. And this we also pray for, even your perfecting.

For we rejoice when we are weak, and you are strong: but this also we pray, that you may be perfect.

10 For this cause I write these things while absent, that I may not deal sharply when present, according to the authority which the Lord gave me for building up, and not for tearing down.

Therefore while distant I write these (things), that when I am come I may not act severely, according to the power which my Lord hath given me for your edification, and not for your destruction.

11 Finally, brothers, rejoice. Be perfected, be comforted, be of the same mind, live in peace, and the God of love and peace will be with you.

Wherefore, my brethren, rejoice, and be perfect, and be comforted, and let agreement and peace be among you; and the God of love and of peace shall be with you.

12 Greet one another with a holy kiss.

Salute one another with the holy kiss.

13 All the kadoshim greet you.

All the saints ask for your peace.

14 The grace of the Lord Yeshua the Messiah, the love of God, and the fellowship of the Ruach ha-Kodesh, be with you all.

THE PEACE OF OUR LORD JESHU MESHIHA, AND THE LOVE OF ALOHA, AND THE COMMUNION OF THE SPIRIT OF HOLINESS, BE WITH YOU ALL. AMEN.
