< Corinthios Ii 1 >
1 Paulus apostolus Iesu Christi per voluntatem Dei et Timotheus frater ecclesiae Dei quae est Corinthi cum sanctis omnibus qui sunt in universa Achaia
Paul, an emissary of Messiah Yeshua through the will of God, and Timothy our brother, to the congregation of God which is at Corinth, with all the kadoshim who are in the whole of Achaia:
2 gratia vobis et pax a Deo Patre nostro et Domino Iesu Christo
Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Yeshua the Messiah.
3 benedictus Deus et Pater Domini nostri Iesu Christi Pater misericordiarum et Deus totius consolationis
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort;
4 qui consolatur nos in omni tribulatione nostra ut possimus et ipsi consolari eos qui in omni pressura sunt per exhortationem qua exhortamur et ipsi a Deo
who comforts us in all our affliction, that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, through the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.
5 quoniam sicut abundant passiones Christi in nobis ita et per Christum abundat consolatio nostra
For as the sufferings of Messiah abound to us, even so our comfort also abounds through Messiah.
6 sive autem tribulamur pro vestra exhortatione et salute sive exhortamur pro vestra exhortatione quae operatur in tolerantia earundem passionum quas et nos patimur
But if we are afflicted, it is for your comfort and salvation. If we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which produces in you the patient enduring of the same sufferings which we also suffer.
7 et spes nostra firma pro vobis scientes quoniam sicut socii passionum estis sic eritis et consolationis
Our hope for you is steadfast, knowing that, since you are partakers of the sufferings, so also are you of the comfort.
8 non enim volumus ignorare vos fratres de tribulatione nostra quae facta est in Asia quoniam supra modum gravati sumus supra virtutem ita ut taederet nos etiam vivere
For we do not desire to have you uninformed, brothers, concerning our affliction which happened in Asia, that we were weighed down exceedingly, beyond our power, so much that we despaired even of life.
9 sed ipsi in nobis ipsis responsum mortis habuimus ut non simus fidentes in nobis sed in Deo qui suscitat mortuos
Yes, we ourselves have had the sentence of death within ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God who raises the dead,
10 qui de tantis periculis eripuit nos et eruet in quem speramus quoniam et adhuc eripiet
who delivered us out of so great a death, and he will deliver us. On him we have set our hope that he will also deliver us again;
11 adiuvantibus et vobis in oratione pro nobis ut ex multis personis eius quae in nobis est donationis per multos gratiae agantur pro nobis
you also helping together on our behalf by your petition; that, for the gift bestowed on us by means of many, thanks may be given by many persons on our behalf.
12 nam gloria nostra haec est testimonium conscientiae nostrae quod in simplicitate et sinceritate Dei et non in sapientia carnali sed in gratia Dei conversati sumus in mundo abundantius autem ad vos
For our boasting is this: the testimony of our conscience, that with pure motives and sincerity of God, not in fleshly wisdom but in the grace of God we conducted ourselves in the world, and more abundantly toward you.
13 non enim alia scribimus vobis quam quae legistis et cognoscitis spero autem quod usque in finem cognoscetis
For we write no other things to you, than what you read or even acknowledge, and I hope you will fully acknowledge;
14 sicut et cognovistis nos ex parte quia gloria vestra sumus sicut et vos nostra in die Domini nostri Iesu Christi
as also you acknowledged us in part, that we are your boasting, even as you also are ours, in the day of our Lord Yeshua.
15 et hac confidentia volui prius venire ad vos ut secundam gratiam haberetis
In this confidence, I was determined to come first to you, that you might have a second benefit;
16 et per vos transire in Macedoniam et iterum a Macedonia venire ad vos et a vobis deduci in Iudaeam
and by you to pass into Macedonia, and again from Macedonia to come to you, and to be sent forward by you on my journey to Judea.
17 cum hoc ergo voluissem numquid levitate usus sum aut quae cogito secundum carnem cogito ut sit apud me est et non
When I therefore was planning this, did I do it lightly? Or the things that I purpose, do I purpose according to the flesh, that with me there should be the "Yes, yes" and the "No, no?"
18 fidelis autem Deus quia sermo noster qui fit apud vos non est in illo est et non
But as God is faithful, our word toward you is not "Yes and no."
19 Dei enim Filius Iesus Christus qui in vobis per nos praedicatus est per me et Silvanum et Timotheum non fuit est et non sed est in illo fuit
For the Son of God, Yeshua the Messiah, who was preached among you by us, by me, Silvanus, and Timothy, was not "Yes and no," but in him is "Yes."
20 quotquot enim promissiones Dei sunt in illo est ideo et per ipsum amen Deo ad gloriam nostram
For however many are the promises of God, in him they are "Yes." Therefore also through him they are "Amen," to the glory of God through us.
21 qui autem confirmat nos vobiscum in Christum et qui unxit nos Deus
Now he who establishes us with you in Messiah, and anointed us, is God;
22 et qui signavit nos et dedit pignus Spiritus in cordibus nostris
who also sealed us, and gave us the down payment of the Ruach in our hearts.
23 ego autem testem Deum invoco in animam meam quod parcens vobis non veni ultra Corinthum
But I call God as a witness to my soul, that to spare you I did not come again to Corinth.
24 non quia dominamur fidei vestrae sed adiutores sumus gaudii vestri nam fide stetistis
Not that we rule over your faith, but are fellow workers with you for your joy. For you stand firm in faith.
