2 Corinthians 5
1 We know that [these bodies] we live in [here in this world are like] [MET] tents. [They are like temporary living/dwelling places]. [So we should not be concerned about what happens to our bodies]. We know that if we are killed {if [someone] kills us}, God will give us [permanent living places. Those permanent living places] [MET] will not be houses that people have made. They [will be new bodies in which we will live forever] in heaven. (aiōnios g166)
அபரம் அஸ்மாகம் ஏதஸ்மிந் பார்தி²வே தூ³ஷ்யரூபே வேஸ்²மநி ஜீர்ணே ஸதீஸ்²வரேண நிர்ம்மிதம் அகரக்ரு’தம் அஸ்மாகம் அநந்தகாலஸ்தா²யி வேஸ்²மைகம்’ ஸ்வர்கே³ வித்³யத இதி வயம்’ ஜாநீம: | (aiōnios g166)
2 [While we are here on earth, we suffer]. We often groan because we desire [to go] to heaven [where God] will give us our new [bodies] [MET].
யதோ ஹேதோரேதஸ்மிந் வேஸ்²மநி திஷ்ட²ந்தோ வயம்’ தம்’ ஸ்வர்கீ³யம்’ வாஸம்’ பரிதா⁴தும் ஆகாங்க்ஷ்யமாணா நி: ஸ்²வஸாம: |
3 When [God gives us(inc) our new bodies] [MET], our [spirits will have] [LIT, MET] bodies to live in [that will last forever].
ததா²பீதா³நீமபி வயம்’ தேந ந நக்³நா: கிந்து பரிஹிதவஸநா மந்யாமஹே|
4 [It is true that] while we are still living in these bodies [MET] [that do not last forever], we often groan [DOU] [because we desire to be free from them]. We are not longing to be without a body. Instead, [we groan because] we desire to receive our new bodies [MET] in heaven. We long for this to happen so that these bodies that are going to die some day will suddenly be changed [into bodies] that will live [forever].
ஏதஸ்மிந் தூ³ஷ்யே திஷ்ட²நதோ வயம்’ க்லிஸ்²யமாநா நி: ஸ்²வஸாம: , யதோ வயம்’ வாஸம்’ த்யக்தும் இச்சா²மஸ்தந்நஹி கிந்து தம்’ த்³விதீயம்’ வாஸம்’ பரிதா⁴தும் இச்சா²ம: , யதஸ்ததா² க்ரு’தே ஜீவநேந மர்த்யம்’ க்³ரஸிஷ்யதே|
5 It is God himself who has prepared us to [receive] these [new bodies]. He is also the one who has guaranteed/assured us [(inc)] that this will happen. He has guaranteed it by sending his Spirit [to live inside us now].
ஏதத³ர்த²ம்’ வயம்’ யேந ஸ்ரு’ஷ்டா: ஸ ஈஸ்²வர ஏவ ஸ சாஸ்மப்⁴யம்’ ஸத்யங்காரஸ்ய பணஸ்வரூபம் ஆத்மாநம்’ த³த்தவாந்|
6 So, [because God’s Spirit lives in us], we are always confident [that God will give us new bodies]. We know that as long as we have bodies here on [earth], we are not yet [living together] with the Lord [Jesus in heaven].
அதஏவ வயம்’ ஸர்வ்வதோ³த்ஸுகா ப⁴வாம: கிஞ்ச ஸ²ரீரே யாவத்³ அஸ்மாபி⁴ ர்ந்யுஷ்யதே தாவத் ப்ரபு⁴தோ தூ³ரே ப்ரோஷ்யத இதி ஜாநீம: ,
7 While we [(exc)] live [here, we] do not have our [new bodies, but we are] trusting [that God will give them to us].
யதோ வயம்’ த்³ரு’ஷ்டிமார்கே³ ந சராம: கிந்து விஸ்²வாஸமார்கே³|
8 [As I said], we [(exc)] are confident [that he will give us new bodies]. We [(exc)] would much prefer to leave these bodies [which we have now], and be with the Lord [Jesus in our] home in [heaven].
அபரஞ்ச ஸ²ரீராத்³ தூ³ரே ப்ரவஸ்தும்’ ப்ரபோ⁴: ஸந்நிதௌ⁴ நிவஸ்துஞ்சாகாங்க்ஷ்யமாணா உத்ஸுகா ப⁴வாம: |
9 Because of all that, we always want to please [Jesus in everything that we do]. Whether we [(exc)] are [still living] here [in these] bodies or whether we have [left] them and are living in our home [in heaven], we want to please him.
தஸ்மாதே³வ காரணாத்³ வயம்’ தஸ்ய ஸந்நிதௌ⁴ நிவஸந்தஸ்தஸ்மாத்³ தூ³ரே ப்ரவஸந்தோ வா தஸ்மை ரோசிதும்’ யதாமஹே|
10 [And we need to try hard to do that] because each one of us [believers] must stand before Christ [to be] judged [by him] {[when he will] judge [his people]}. [At that time] he will [reward each one of] us according to what we have done [while we lived in this world] in these bodies. [He will reward us according to] whether we have done good things or whether we have done evil things.
யஸ்மாத் ஸ²ரீராவஸ்தா²யாம் ஏகைகேந க்ரு’தாநாம்’ கர்ம்மணாம்’ ஸு²பா⁴ஸு²ப⁴ப²லப்ராப்தயே ஸர்வ்வைஸ்மாபி⁴: க்²ரீஷ்டஸ்ய விசாராஸநஸம்முக² உபஸ்தா²தவ்யம்’|
11 It makes me fearful [to think that some day I will stand before the Lord for him to judge me]. So I [do everything that I can to] convince people [that they should believe] (OR, [that I teach] sincerely) [God’s message]. God knows very well [how I conduct my life and what I teach], and I really believe that you know it, too.
அதஏவ ப்ரபோ⁴ ர்ப⁴யாநகத்வம்’ விஜ்ஞாய வயம்’ மநுஜாந் அநுநயாம: கிஞ்சேஸ்²வரஸ்ய கோ³சரே ஸப்ரகாஸா² ப⁴வாம: , யுஷ்மாகம்’ ஸம்’வேத³கோ³சரே(அ)பி ஸப்ரகாஸா² ப⁴வாம இத்யாஸ²ம்’ஸாமஹே|
12 Once again [I say, as I write this], I am not just [trying to] make you think well/highly of me, [as some people will probably say that I am]. Instead, I am [telling you in this letter why you have] good reason [to tell those who criticize me] that you think highly of me. [I am telling you this] so that you will know what to say to those [teachers of false doctrine among you]. They are proud [of what they have done], instead of [making sure that] they [are right with God and being pleased with that].
அநேந வயம்’ யுஷ்மாகம்’ ஸந்நிதௌ⁴ புந: ஸ்வாந் ப்ரஸ²ம்’ஸாம இதி நஹி கிந்து யே மநோ விநா முகை²: ஸ்²லாக⁴ந்தே தேப்⁴ய: ப்ரத்யுத்தரதா³நாய யூயம்’ யதா²ஸ்மாபி⁴: ஸ்²லாகி⁴தும்’ ஸ²க்நுத² தாத்³ரு’ஸ²ம் உபாயம்’ யுஷ்மப்⁴யம்’ விதராம: |
13 [Some of them say that after God has enabled me to see visions], I [talk like] a crazy person. If [that is so, I want you to realize that I talk that way in order to please] God. On the other hand, if [you think that] I [speak and act] wisely, [that is good. I want you to know that I do] speak and act wisely in order to [help] you.
யதி³ வயம்’ ஹதஜ்ஞாநா ப⁴வாமஸ்தர்ஹி தத்³ ஈஸ்²வரார்த²கம்’ யதி³ ச ஸஜ்ஞாநா ப⁴வாமஸ்தர்ஹி தத்³ யுஷ்மத³ர்த²கம்’|
14 [I speak and act the way I do] because the love that Christ [has for people] influences me [in everything that I say and do]. When Christ died, [he suffered the punishment] for [the sins of] all people. So, we should all [think of ourselves as having] died with him, [being as unresponsive to sinful desires as] [MET] a corpse is.
வயம்’ க்²ரீஷ்டஸ்ய ப்ரேம்நா ஸமாக்ரு’ஷ்யாமஹே யத: ஸர்வ்வேஷாம்’ விநிமயேந யத்³யேகோ ஜநோ(அ)ம்ரியத தர்ஹி தே ஸர்வ்வே ம்ரு’தா இத்யாஸ்மாபி⁴ ர்பு³த்⁴யதே|
15 When [Christ] died for the everyone, he died in order that [we believers who are alive now] should not conduct our lives in a way that will just [please ourselves]. Instead, [we should conduct our lives in a way that will please] Christ, [because] he is the one who died for us and was brought back to life {whom [God] raised} again.
அபரஞ்ச யே ஜீவந்தி தே யத் ஸ்வார்த²ம்’ ந ஜீவந்தி கிந்து தேஷாம்’ க்ரு’தே யோ ஜநோ ம்ரு’த: புநருத்தா²பிதஸ்²ச தமுத்³தி³ஸ்²ய யத் ஜீவந்தி தத³ர்த²மேவ ஸ ஸர்வ்வேஷாம்’ க்ரு’தே ம்ரு’தவாந்|
16 So, [because I realize how much Christ loves everyone], I no longer think about people in the way that those who do not believe [in Christ] think about [them]. Before I [was a believer], I thought about Christ in the way that other non-believers did. But I do not think of him that way any more.
அதோ ஹேதோரித: பரம்’ கோ(அ)ப்யஸ்மாபி⁴ ர்ஜாதிதோ ந ப்ரதிஜ்ஞாதவ்ய: | யத்³யபி பூர்வ்வம்’ க்²ரீஷ்டோ ஜாதிதோ(அ)ஸ்மாபி⁴: ப்ரதிஜ்ஞாதஸ்ததா²பீதா³நீம்’ ஜாதித: புந ர்ந ப்ரதிஜ்ஞாயதே|
17 The fact is that God makes every one [of us] who [trusts] in Christ to be completely different [than we were before]. Our old [way of conducting our lives] is gone. We now have a [completely] new way of [conducting our lives].
கேநசித் க்²ரீஷ்ட ஆஸ்²ரிதே நூதநா ஸ்ரு’ஷ்டி ர்ப⁴வதி புராதநாநி லுப்யந்தே பஸ்²ய நிகி²லாநி நவீநாநி ப⁴வந்தி|
18 This [complete change in our lives] is all something that God [does]. It is God who made it possible for us to have a peaceful relationship with him. [He was able to do that] because of what Christ [did for us]. Now God [has sent] me, and those [who work] with me, to tell [people that they] can have a peaceful relationship with him.
ஸர்வ்வஞ்சைதத்³ ஈஸ்²வரஸ்ய கர்ம்ம யதோ யீஸு²க்²ரீஷ்டேந ஸ ஏவாஸ்மாந் ஸ்வேந ஸார்த்³த⁴ம்’ ஸம்’ஹிதவாந் ஸந்தா⁴நஸம்ப³ந்தீ⁴யாம்’ பரிசர்ய்யாம் அஸ்மாஸு ஸமர்பிதவாம்’ஸ்²ச|
19 That is, [he sent us(exc) to tell them that] when Christ [died], God was [making it possible for everyone] [MTY] in the world to have a peaceful relationship with him. He no longer keeps a record of the sinful things that [we believers] have done. The message that [God] has given to us [to tell people is how we can have a] peaceful relationship with him.
யத: ஈஸ்²வர: க்²ரீஷ்டம் அதி⁴ஷ்டா²ய ஜக³தோ ஜநாநாம் ஆகா³ம்’ஸி தேஷாம் ரு’ணமிவ ந க³ணயந் ஸ்வேந ஸார்த்³த⁴ம்’ தாந் ஸம்’ஹிதவாந் ஸந்தி⁴வார்த்தாம் அஸ்மாஸு ஸமர்பிதவாம்’ஸ்²ச|
20 So, it is I and my companions who are Christ’s representatives [in this world. When we tell people the message about Christ], it is God himself who is pleading with them by means of what we [say]. So, as true representatives of Christ, we plead with you: [Believe God’s true message about Christ in order that you may] be reconciled to {have a peaceful relationship with} him.
அதோ வயம்’ க்²ரீஷ்டஸ்ய விநிமயேந தௌ³த்யம்’ கர்ம்ம ஸம்பாத³யாமஹே, ஈஸ்²வரஸ்²சாஸ்மாபி⁴ ர்யுஷ்மாந் யாயாச்யதே தத: க்²ரீஷ்டஸ்ய விநிமயேந வயம்’ யுஷ்மாந் ப்ரார்த²யாமஹே யூயமீஸ்²வரேண ஸந்த⁴த்த|
21 [You must believe that even though] Jesus never sinned, God [punished him for all the] sinful things [that people do, just] as [if Jesus had done those sinful things himself]. And because of our close relationship with Christ, God has erased the record of our sins/declared us no longer guilty for our sins.
