2 Corinthians 13

1 This intended visit of mine is my third visit to you. "On the evidence of two or three witnesses every charge shall be sustained."

ܗܕܐ ܕܬܠܬ ܗܝ ܙܒܢܝܢ ܕܐܬܐ ܐܢܐ ܠܘܬܟܘܢ ܕܥܠ ܦܘܡ ܬܪܝܢ ܘܬܠܬܐ ܤܗܕܝܢ ܬܩܘܡ ܟܠ ܡܠܐ

2 Those who cling to their old sins, and indeed all of you, I have forewarned and still forewarn (as I did on my second visit when present, so I do now, though absent) that, when I come again, I shall not spare you;

ܡܢ ܩܕܝܡ ܐܡܪܬ ܗܘܝܬ ܠܟܘܢ ܘܬܘܒ ܡܩܕܡ ܐܢܐ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܐܝܟ ܕܐܦ ܬܪܬܝܢ ܙܒܢܝܢ ܕܗܘܝܬ ܠܘܬܟܘܢ ܐܡܪܬ ܠܟܘܢ ܘܐܦ ܗܫܐ ܟܕ ܪܚܝܩ ܐܢܐ ܟܬܒܢܐ ܠܗܠܝܢ ܕܚܛܘ ܘܠܫܪܟܐ ܕܐܚܪܢܐ ܕܐܢ ܐܬܐ ܬܘܒ ܠܐ ܐܚܘܤ

3 since you want a practical proof of the fact that Christ speaks by my lips--He who is not feeble towards you, but powerful among you.

ܡܛܠ ܕܒܘܩܝܐ ܒܥܝܬܘܢ ܕܡܫܝܚܐ ܕܡܡܠܠ ܒܝ ܗܘ ܕܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܡܚܝܠ ܒܟܘܢ ܐܠܐ ܚܝܠܬܢ ܗܘ ܒܟܘܢ

4 For though it is true that He was crucified through weakness, yet He now lives through the power of God. We also are weak, sharing His weakness, but with Him we shall be full of life to deal with you through the power of God.

ܐܦܢ ܐܙܕܩܦ ܓܝܪ ܒܡܚܝܠܘܬܐ ܐܠܐ ܚܝ ܗܘ ܒܚܝܠܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܘܐܦ ܚܢܢ ܡܚܝܠܝܢܢ ܥܡܗ ܐܠܐ ܚܝܝܢ ܚܢܢ ܥܡܗ ܒܚܝܠܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܕܒܟܘܢ

5 Test yourselves to discover whether you are true believers: put your own selves under examination. Or do you not know that Jesus Christ is within you, unless you are insincere?

ܢܦܫܟܘܢ ܒܩܘ ܐܢ ܒܗ ܒܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ܩܝܡܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܢܦܫܟܘܢ ܐܤܘ ܐܘ ܠܐ ܡܫܬܘܕܥܝܬܘܢ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܒܟܘܢ ܗܘ ܘܐܢ ܠܐ ܡܤܠܝܐ ܐܢܬܘܢ

6 But I trust that you will recognize that we are not insincere.

ܡܤܒܪ ܐܢܐ ܕܝܢ ܕܬܕܥܘܢ ܕܚܢܢ ܠܐ ܗܘܝܢ ܡܤܠܝܢ

7 And our prayer to God is that you may do nothing wrong; not in order that our sincerity may be demonstrated, but that you may do what is right, even though our sincerity may seem to be doubtful.

ܒܥܐ ܐܢܐ ܕܝܢ ܡܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܕܠܐ ܢܗܘܐ ܒܟܘܢ ܡܕܡ ܕܒܝܫ ܐܝܟ ܕܒܘܩܝܢ ܕܝܠܢ ܢܬܚܙܐ ܐܠܐ ܕܐܢܬܘܢ ܬܗܘܘܢ ܤܥܪܝܢ ܛܒܬܐ ܘܚܢܢ ܢܗܘܐ ܐܝܟ ܡܤܠܝܐ

8 For we have no power against the truth, but only for the furtherance of the truth;

ܠܐ ܓܝܪ ܡܫܟܚܝܢܢ ܕܢܥܒܕ ܡܕܡ ܠܘܩܒܠ ܩܘܫܬܐ ܐܠܐ ܚܠܦ ܩܘܫܬܐ

9 and it is a joy to us when we are powerless, but you are strong. This we also pray for--the perfecting of your characters.

ܚܕܝܢܢ ܕܝܢ ܡܐ ܕܚܢܢ ܟܪܝܗܝܢ ܘܐܢܬܘܢ ܚܝܠܬܢܝܢ ܗܕܐ ܓܝܪ ܐܦ ܡܨܠܝܢܢ ܕܐܢܬܘܢ ܬܬܓܡܪܘܢ

10 For this reason I write thus while absent, that when present I may not have to act severely in the exercise of the authority which the Lord has given me for building up, and not for pulling down.

ܡܛܠ ܗܢܐ ܟܕ ܪܚܝܩ ܐܢܐ ܗܠܝܢ ܟܬܒ ܐܢܐ ܕܠܐ ܡܐ ܕܐܬܝܬ ܩܫܝܐܝܬ ܐܤܥܘܪ ܐܝܟ ܫܘܠܛܢܐ ܕܝܗܒ ܠܝ ܡܪܝ ܠܒܢܝܢܟܘܢ ܘܠܐ ܠܤܘܚܦܟܘܢ

11 Finally, brethren, be joyful, secure perfection of character, take courage, be of one mind, live in peace. And then God who gives love and peace will be with you.

ܡܟܝܠ ܐܚܝ ܚܕܘ ܘܐܬܓܡܪܘ ܘܐܬܒܝܐܘ ܘܐܘܝܘܬܐ ܘܫܝܢܐ ܢܗܘܐ ܒܟܘܢ ܘܐܠܗܐ ܕܚܘܒܐ ܘܕܫܠܡܘܬܐ ܢܗܘܐ ܥܡܟܘܢ

12 Salute one another with a holy kiss.

ܫܐܠܘ ܒܫܠܡܐ ܚܕ ܕܚܕ ܒܢܘܫܩܬܐ ܩܕܝܫܬܐ

13 All God's people here send greetings to you.

ܫܐܠܝܢ ܒܫܠܡܟܘܢ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܩܕܝܫܐ

14 May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, be with you all.

ܫܠܡܗ ܕܡܪܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܘܚܘܒܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܘܫܘܬܦܘܬܐ ܕܪܘܚܐ ܕܩܘܕܫܐ ܥܡ ܟܠܟܘܢ ܐܡܝܢ
