1 īśvarasyēcchayā yīśukhrīṣṭasya prēritaḥ paulastimathirbhrātā ca dvāvētau karinthanagarasthāyai īśvarīyasamitaya ākhāyādēśasthēbhyaḥ sarvvēbhyaḥ pavitralōkēbhyaśca patraṁ likhataḥ|
Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and Timothy the brother, to the church of God which is in Corinth, with all the holy who are in all Achaia:
2 asmākaṁ tātasyēśvarasya prabhōryīśukhrīṣṭasya cānugrahaḥ śāntiśca yuṣmāsu varttatāṁ|
Grace be to you, and peace, from God our Fathers and the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 kr̥pāluḥ pitā sarvvasāntvanākārīśvaraśca yō'smatprabhōryīśukhrīṣṭasya tāta īśvaraḥ sa dhanyō bhavatu|
Blessed be God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort,
4 yatō vayam īśvarāt sāntvanāṁ prāpya tayā sāntvanayā yat sarvvavidhakliṣṭān lōkān sāntvayituṁ śaknuyāma tadarthaṁ sō'smākaṁ sarvvaklēśasamayē'smān sāntvayati|
who comforteth us in all our distress, that we may be able to comfort those who are in any distress by the comfort wherewith we are ourselves comforted by God;
5 yataḥ khrīṣṭasya klēśā yadvad bāhulyēnāsmāsu varttantē tadvad vayaṁ khrīṣṭēna bahusāntvanāḍhyā api bhavāmaḥ|
for as the sufferings of Christ overflow to us, so through Christ doth our comfort also overflow.
6 vayaṁ yadi kliśyāmahē tarhi yuṣmākaṁ sāntvanāparitrāṇayōḥ kr̥tē kliśyāmahē yatō'smābhi ryādr̥śāni duḥkhāni sahyantē yuṣmākaṁ tādr̥śaduḥkhānāṁ sahanēna tau sādhayiṣyētē ityasmin yuṣmānadhi mama dr̥ḍhā pratyāśā bhavati|
And whether we are distressed, it is for your comfort and salvation, which showeth its power in enabling you to bear patiently the same sufferings which we also endure; and our hope is steadfast in your behalf; or whether we are comforted, it is for your comfort and salvation,
7 yadi vā vayaṁ sāntvanāṁ labhāmahē tarhi yuṣmākaṁ sāntvanāparitrāṇayōḥ kr̥tē tāmapi labhāmahē| yatō yūyaṁ yādr̥g duḥkhānāṁ bhāginō'bhavata tādr̥k sāntvanāyā api bhāginō bhaviṣyathēti vayaṁ jānīmaḥ|
knowing that as ye are sharers in the sufferings, so also ye will be sharers in the comfort.
8 hē bhrātaraḥ, āśiyādēśē yaḥ klēśō'smān ākrāmyat taṁ yūyaṁ yad anavagatāstiṣṭhata tanmayā bhadraṁ na manyatē| tēnātiśaktiklēśēna vayamatīva pīḍitāstasmāt jīvanarakṣaṇē nirupāyā jātāśca,
For we would not, brethren, have you ignorant of our distress which came upon us in Asia, that it was exceedingly heavy upon us beyond our strength, so that we despaired even of life;
9 atō vayaṁ svēṣu na viśvasya mr̥talōkānām utthāpayitarīśvarē yad viśvāsaṁ kurmmastadartham asmābhiḥ prāṇadaṇḍō bhōktavya iti svamanasi niścitaṁ|
yea, we ourselves had within ourselves the sentence of death, that we might not trust in ourselves, but in God who raiseth the dead;
10 ētādr̥śabhayaṅkarāt mr̥tyō ryō 'smān atrāyatēdānīmapi trāyatē sa itaḥ paramapyasmān trāsyatē 'smākam ētādr̥śī pratyāśā vidyatē|
who delivered us from such peril of death, and is delivering; in whom we trust that he will yet deliver us,
11 ētadarthamasmatkr̥tē prārthanayā vayaṁ yuṣmābhirupakarttavyāstathā kr̥tē bahubhi ryācitō yō'nugrahō'smāsu varttiṣyatē tatkr̥tē bahubhirīśvarasya dhanyavādō'pi kāriṣyatē|
you also unitedly helping us by prayer, so that for this blessing bestowed on us by means of many, thanks may be given by many on your behalf.
12 aparañca saṁsāramadhyē viśēṣatō yuṣmanmadhyē vayaṁ sāṁsārikyā dhiyā nahi kintvīśvarasyānugrahēṇākuṭilatām īśvarīyasāralyañcācaritavantō'trāsmākaṁ manō yat pramāṇaṁ dadāti tēna vayaṁ ślāghāmahē|
For our glorying is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity and the sincerity which is of God, not in fleshly wisdom, but in the grace of God, we have conducted ourselves in the world, and especially toward you.
13 yuṣmābhi ryad yat paṭhyatē gr̥hyatē ca tadanyat kimapi yuṣmabhyam asmābhi rna likhyatē taccāntaṁ yāvad yuṣmābhi rgrahīṣyata ityasmākam āśā|
For we write no other things to you, than what ye read or even acknowledge. And I trust ye will acknowledge even to the end,
14 yūyamitaḥ pūrvvamapyasmān aṁśatō gr̥hītavantaḥ, yataḥ prabhō ryīśukhrīṣṭasya dinē yadvad yuṣmāsvasmākaṁ ślāghā tadvad asmāsu yuṣmākamapi ślāghā bhaviṣyati|
as also ye have acknowledged us in part, that we are your glorying, as ye also are ours in the day of the Lord Jesus.
15 aparaṁ yūyaṁ yad dvitīyaṁ varaṁ labhadhvē tadarthamitaḥ pūrvvaṁ tayā pratyāśayā yuṣmatsamīpaṁ gamiṣyāmi
And in this confidence it was my purpose to come to you before, that ye might receive a second benefit;
16 yuṣmaddēśēna mākidaniyādēśaṁ vrajitvā punastasmāt mākidaniyādēśāt yuṣmatsamīpam ētya yuṣmābhi ryihūdādēśaṁ prēṣayiṣyē cēti mama vāñchāsīt|
and to go by way of you into Macedonia, and from Macedonia to come again to you, and by you to be forwarded on my way to Judaea.
17 ētādr̥śī mantraṇā mayā kiṁ cāñcalyēna kr̥tā? yad yad ahaṁ mantrayē tat kiṁ viṣayilōka̮iva mantrayāṇa ādau svīkr̥tya paścād asvīkurvvē?
Having, then, this purpose, did I act with levity? Or in my purposes do I resolve according to the flesh, that with me there should be now yea, yea, and now nay, nay?
18 yuṣmān prati mayā kathitāni vākyānyagrē svīkr̥tāni śēṣē'svīkr̥tāni nābhavan ētēnēśvarasya viśvastatā prakāśatē|
But as God is faithful, our word to you is not yea and nay.
19 mayā silvānēna timathinā cēśvarasya putrō yō yīśukhrīṣṭō yuṣmanmadhyē ghōṣitaḥ sa tēna svīkr̥taḥ punarasvīkr̥taśca tannahi kintu sa tasya svīkārasvarūpaēva|
For the Son of God, Christ Jesus, who was preached among you by us, by me and Silvanus and Timothy, was not found yea and nay, but in him hath been found yea.
20 īśvarasya mahimā yad asmābhiḥ prakāśēta tadartham īśvarēṇa yad yat pratijñātaṁ tatsarvvaṁ khrīṣṭēna svīkr̥taṁ satyībhūtañca|
For as to all the promises of God, in him is yea, and in him amen, to the glory of God through us.
21 yuṣmān asmāṁścābhiṣicya yaḥ khrīṣṭē sthāsnūn karōti sa īśvara ēva|
Now he who maketh us with you steadfast in Christ, and anointed us, is God;
22 sa cāsmān mudrāṅkitān akārṣīt satyāṅkārasya paṇakharūpam ātmānaṁ asmākam antaḥkaraṇēṣu nirakṣipacca|
he who also sealed us, and gave the Spirit as a pledge in our hearts.
23 aparaṁ yuṣmāsu karuṇāṁ kurvvan aham ētāvatkālaṁ yāvat karinthanagaraṁ na gatavān iti satyamētasmin īśvaraṁ sākṣiṇaṁ kr̥tvā mayā svaprāṇānāṁ śapathaḥ kriyatē|
But I call upon God as a witness against my soul, that it was to spare you that I came no more to Corinth;
24 vayaṁ yuṣmākaṁ viśvāsasya niyantārō na bhavāmaḥ kintu yuṣmākam ānandasya sahāyā bhavāmaḥ, yasmād viśvāsē yuṣmākaṁ sthiti rbhavati|
not that we have dominion over your faith, but are helpers of your joy. For in respect to faith ye stand firm.
