\subsection{II Corinthians 1}
|
|
\VS{1} Paul, [an] apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God, and Timothy the
|
|
brother, to the assembly\fnEkklhsia{} which is in Corinth with all the holy [ones]
|
|
which are in all Achaia,
|
|
\VS{2} grace to you and peace from God our father and [our] Lord
|
|
Jesus Christ.
|
|
|
|
\VS{3} Blessed is the God and father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the father of
|
|
compassions and God of all encouragement,
|
|
\VS{4} the [one] encouraging us in all
|
|
our affliction, to the end that we be encouraging those in every affliction
|
|
through the encouragement with which we ourselves are encouraged by God.
|
|
\VS{5} For just as the sufferings of Christ abound to us, this our
|
|
encouragement abounds through the Christ.
|
|
\VS{6} So whether we are
|
|
afflicted, [it is] in behalf [of your] encouragement and salvation; whether we are
|
|
encouraged, [it is] in behalf [of your] encouragement [which is] effective towards endurance of the
|
|
same sufferings which we also suffer.
|
|
\VS{7} And our hope is firm concerning
|
|
you, knowing that as you are partners of the sufferings, thus also [are you] of the
|
|
encouragement.
|
|
\VS{8} For we do not want you to be being ignorant, brothers,
|
|
concerning our affliction which has come to pass in Asia, that we were
|
|
utterly burdened, so that we were in great difficulty even of zoe-life\fnZoe{}.
|
|
\VS{9} But we had the sentence of death in ourselves, in order that we not be
|
|
persuaded upon ourselves, but upon the God having raised the dead,
|
|
\VS{10} who from so great [a] death rescued us, and he does rescue, in whom we hope
|
|
that he will yet rescue [us],
|
|
\VS{11} you also co-helping concerning us in prayer,
|
|
in order that for the gift\footnote{from GRACE} to us by means of many faces,
|
|
thanks be given by many in our\footnote{``our" \sinaiticus{}D\koine{} \vulgate{};
|
|
``your" \papyrus{46}B} behalf.
|
|
\VS{12} For our boasting is this: the witness of our conscience,
|
|
that in holiness and sincerity of God, not in fleshly wisdom,
|
|
but in the grace of God, have we conducted ourselves in the world,
|
|
and more abundantly towards you.
|
|
\VS{13} For we do not write to you except
|
|
what you read or know. So I hope that you will know until [the] end,
|
|
\VS{14} just as you also have known us in part, that we are your boasting,
|
|
just as you [are] ours in the day of our Lord Jesus.
|
|
\VS{15} And in this persuasion I
|
|
intended previously to come to you in order that you have [a] second grace,
|
|
\VS{16} and to come through you to Macedonia, and again from Macedonia to
|
|
come to you and to be sent on my way by you to Judea.
|
|
\VS{17} Intending this
|
|
therefore did I use levity? Or what I intend, do I intend according to [the]
|
|
flesh, in order that there be with the yes [which is] yes and the no [which is] no?
|
|
\VS{18} But God is trustworthy, because our word to you is not yes and no.
|
|
\VS{19} For the son of God Christ Jesus, the [one] proclaimed among you through us,
|
|
through me and Silvanus and Timothy, did not become yes and no, but in him is become yes.
|
|
\VS{20} For as many as [are the] promises of God, in him [they are] yes. Therefore also
|
|
through him [is] the Amen to God for glory through us.
|
|
\VS{21} Now the [one] establishing us with you in Christ and having anointed us
|
|
[is] God,
|
|
\VS{22} the [one] also having sealed us and having given [us] the down-payment of the
|
|
spirit in our hearts.
|
|
|
|
\VS{23} So I call God [for a] witness upon my psyche-life\fnPsyche{}, that sparing you I came not yet to Corinth.
|
|
\VS{24} Not that we Lord over your faith, but we are co-workers
|
|
[of your] joy, for by faith you do stand.
