< 2 Corinthians 1 >

1 Paul apostle of Christ Jesus through [the] will of God and Timothy the brother To the church of God which is being in Corinth with the saints all who are being in all Achaia;
Paul, an Apostle of Jesus Christ, by the will of God, and Timothy, the brother, to the congregation of God which is in Corinth, together with all the saints who are in all Achaia:
2 Grace to you and peace from God [the] Father of us and [the] Lord Jesus Christ.
Favor to you, and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 Blessed [be] the God and Father of the Lord of us Jesus Christ, the Father of compassions and God of all comfort,
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of tender mercies, and the God of all consolation!
4 who is comforting us in all the tribulation of us for to be able us to comfort those in every tribulation through the comfort with which we are comforted ourselves by God;
who comforts us in all out affliction, that we may be able to comfort them who are in any affliction, by the consolation with which they are comforted of God.
5 because even as abound the sufferings of the Christ toward us, thus so through Christ abounds also the comfort of us.
For as the sufferings for Christ abound in us, also, our consolation abounds through Christ.
6 If however we are constricted, [it is] for your comfort and salvation if we are encouraged, [it is] for your comfort (and salvation *KO*) which is operating in [the] endurance of the same sufferings that also we ourselves suffer,
Now, whether we are afflicted, it is for your comfort, and salvation; or whether we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which is effected by enduring the same sufferings which we also suffer.
7 And the hope of us [is] steadfast for of you; knowing that (as *N(k)O*) partners you are of the sufferings, so also of the comfort.
And out hope of you is steadfast, knowing that, as you are partakers of the sufferings, so shall you be also of the comfort.
8 Not for do we want you to be ignorant brothers, (as to *NK(o)*) the affliction of us having happened (to us *k*) in Asia that against excessively beyond [our] power we were weighed so as to despair for us even to live;
Wherefore, brethren, we would not have you ignorant concerning our affliction, which happened to us in Asia; that we were exceedingly pressed above our strength, insomuch as we despaired even of life.
9 But we in ourselves the sentence of death has, in order that not having trusted we may be in ourselves but in God who is raising the dead;
Nay, more, we ourselves had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we might not trust in ourselves, but in God, who raises the dead;
10 who from such a great a death has delivered us and (will deliver [us] *N(k)O*) in whom we have hope that also still He will deliver [us]
who delivered us from so great a death, and does deliver; in whom we trust that he will yet deliver us;
11 joining together also of you for us by supplication, so that by many persons for the toward us grace bestowed through many thanks may be given for (us. *NK(O)*)
you, also, laboring together in prayer for us, that the gift to us from many persons, may, by many, be acknowledged with thanksgiving for us.
12 For boasting of us this is, the testimony of the conscience of us, that in (openness *NK(O)*) and sincerity (*no*) of God, (and *no*) not in wisdom fleshly but in [the] grace of God we have conducted ourselves in the world, more abundantly now toward you.
For this is our glorying--the testimony of our conscience, that with godly simplicity and sincerity, (not with fleshly wisdom, but by the favor of God, ) we have behaved ourselves in the world, and more abundantly among you.
13 No for other things we write to you, other than what you read or even understand; I hope now that (and *k*) to [the] end you will understand,
For we write no other things to you than what you read, and also acknowledge; and I hope that you will acknowledge, even to the end;
14 even as also you have understood us in part that boasting of you we are, even as also you [are] ours in the day of the Lord (of us *NO*) Jesus.
seeing, indeed, you have acknowledged us in part, that we are your boasting, even as you also are ours, in the day of the Lord Jesus.
15 And with this confidence I was planning (*o*) previously to you to come so that secondly (grace *NK(O)*) (you may have *N(k)O*)
And in this persuasions I purposed to come to you first, that you might have a second gift;
16 and through you to pass through into Macedonia and again from Macedonia to come to you and by you to be set forward to Judea.
and from you to pass through into Macedonia, and from Macedonia to come again to you, and by you to be sent forward into Judea.
17 Thus therefore (deciding *N(k)O*) surely not ever then levity did I use? Or what I purpose according to flesh do I purpose, so that there may be with me myself Yes yes and No no?
Having, then, purposed this, did I, indeed, use levity? or the things which I purpose, do I purpose according to the flesh; so that with me there should be yes, yes, and no, no?
18 Faithful however God [is], that the word of us to you not (was *N(k)O*) Yes and No;
But as God is faithful, certainly our word, which was to you, was not yes and no.
19 The of God for Son Jesus Christ the [One] among you through us having been proclaimed through me and Silvanus and Timothy, not was Yes and No, but Yes in Him it has always been;
For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was proclaimed to you by us, even by me and Sylvanus, and Timothy, was not yes and no; but in him was yes.
20 As many as for promises of God [there are], in Him [is] the Yes; (Therefore *NO*) also (thorugh Him *N(k)O*) the Amen to God [is] for glory through us.
And whatever promises are of God, were through him yes, and through him amen, to the glory of God, by us.
21 The [One] now establishing us with you unto Christ and having anointed us [is] God,
Now, he who establishes us with you in Christ, and who has anointed us, in God:
22 the [One] also having sealed us and having given the pledge of the Spirit in the hearts of us.
who has also sealed us, and given us the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.
23 I myself however as witness God call upon my soul that sparing you no longer no longer have I come to Corinth;
Moreover, I call on God as a witness against my soul, that to spare you, I have not as yet come to Corinth.
24 Not for we lord it over your faith, but fellow workers are of the joy with you; in the for faith you have stood firm.
Not that we lord it over your faith, but we are joint promoters of your joy: for by the faith you stand.
