< コリント人への手紙第二 13 >

1 今われ三度なんぢらに到らんとす、二 三の證人の口によりて凡てのこと慥めらるべし。
This is the third time I am coming to you. At the mouth of two witnesses or three shall every word be established.
2 われ既に告げたれど、今 離れをりて、二度なんぢらに逢ひし時のごとく、前に罪を犯したる者とその他の凡ての人々とに預じめ告ぐ、われ復いたらば決して宥さじ。
I have said beforehand, and I do say beforehand, as when I was present the second time, so now, being absent, to them that have sinned heretofore, and to all the rest, that, if I come again, I will not spare;
3 汝らはキリストの我にありて語りたまふ證據を求むればなり。キリストは汝らに對ひて弱からず、汝 等のうちに強し。
seeing that ye seek a proof of Christ that speaketh in me; who to you-ward is not weak, but is powerful in you:
4 微弱によりて十字架に釘けられ給ひたれど、神の能力によりて生き給へばなり。我らもキリストに在りて弱き者なれど、汝らに向ふ神の能力によりて彼と共に生きん。
for he was crucified through weakness, yet he liveth through the power of God. For we also are weak in him, but we shall live with him through the power of God toward you.
5 なんぢら信仰に居るや否や、みづから試み自ら驗しみよ。汝らみづから知らざらんや、若し棄てらるる者ならずば、イエス・キリストの汝らの中に在す事を、
Try your own selves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Or know ye not as to your own selves, that Jesus Christ is in you? unless indeed ye be reprobate.
6 我は我らの棄てらるる者ならぬを汝らの知らんことを望む。
But I hope that ye shall know that we are not reprobate.
7 我らは汝らの少しにても惡を行はざらんことを神に祈る。これ我らの是とせらるるを顯さん爲にあらず、よし我らは棄てらるる者の如くなるとも、汝らの善を行はん爲なり。
Now we pray to God that ye do no evil; not that we may appear approved, but that ye may do that which is honourable, though we be as reprobate.
8 我らは眞理に逆ひて能力なく、眞理のためには能力あり。
For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth.
9 われら弱くして汝らの強きことを喜ぶ、また之に就きて祈るは、汝らの全くならん事なり。
For we rejoice, when we are weak, and ye are strong: this we also pray for, even your perfecting.
10 われ離れ居りて此 等のことを書き贈るは、汝らに逢ふとき、主の破る爲ならずして建つる爲に我に賜ひたる權威に隨ひて嚴しくせざらん爲なり。
For this cause I write these things while absent, that I may not when present deal sharply, according to the authority which the Lord gave me for building up, and not for casting down.
11 終に言はん、兄弟よ、汝ら喜べ、全くなれ、慰安を受けよ、心を一つにせよ、睦み親しめ、然らば愛と平和との神なんぢらと偕に在さん。
Finally, brethren, farewell. Be perfected; be comforted; be of the same mind; live in peace: and the God of love and peace shall be with you.
12 潔き接吻をもて相 互に安否を問へ、
Salute one another with a holy kiss.
13 凡ての聖徒なんぢらに安否を問ふ。
All the saints salute you.
14 願はくは主イエス・キリストの恩惠・神の愛・聖 靈の交感、なんぢら凡ての者と偕にあらんことを。
The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all.
