2 Corinthians 13

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	GREEK BIBLE
1 Behold, this is the third time that I am coming to you. By the mouth of two or three witnesses, every word shall stand.	1 Τριτην ταυτην φοραν ερχομαι προς εσας? επι στοματος δυο μαρτυρων και τριων θελει βεβαιουσθαι πας λογος.
2 I have preached when present, and I will preach now while absent, to those who sinned before, and to all the others, because, when I arrive again, I will not be lenient with you.	2 Προειπον και προλεγω, ως παρων την δευτεραν φοραν, και τωρα απων γραφω προς τους προαμαρτησαντας και τους λοιπους παντας, οτι εαν ελθω παλιν, δεν θελω φεισθη?
3 Do you seek evidence that it is Christ who speaks in me, who is not weak with you, but is powerful with you?	3 επειδη ζητειτε δοκιμην του δι' εμου λαλουντος Χριστου, οστις δεν ειναι ασθενης προς εσας, αλλ' ειναι δυνατος μεταξυ σας.
4 For although he was crucified in weakness, yet he lives by the power of God. And yes, we are weak in him. But we shall live with him by the power of God among you.	4 Διοτι αν εσταυρωθη εξ ασθενειας, ζη ομως εκ δυναμεως Θεου. διοτι και ημεις ασθενουμεν εν αυτω, πλην εκ δυναμεως Θεου θελομεν ζησει μετ' αυτου εις εσας.
5 Test yourselves as to whether you are in the faith. Examine yourselves. Or do you yourselves not know whether Christ Jesus is in you? But perhaps you are reprobates.	5 Εαυτους εξεταζετε αν ησθε εν τη πιστει, εαυτους δοκιμαζετε. Η δεν γνωριζετε εαυτους οτι ο Ιησους Χριστος ειναι εν υμιν; εκτος εαν ησθε αδοκιμοι κατα τι.
6 But I hope you know that we ourselves are not reprobates.	6 Ελπιζω δε οτι θελετε γνωρισει οτι ημεις δεν ειμεθα αδοκιμοι.
7 Now we pray to God that you shall do nothing evil, not so that we may seem to be approved, but so that you may do what is good, even if we seem like reprobates.	7 Ευχομαι δε εις τον Θεον να μη πραξητε μηδεν κακον, ουχι δια να φανωμεν ημεις δοκιμοι, αλλα δια να πραττητε σεις το καλον, ημεις δε ας ημεθα ως αδοκιμοι.
8 For we cannot do anything against the truth, but only for the truth.	8 Διοτι δεν δυναμεθα να πραξωμεν τι κατα της αληθειας, αλλ' υπερ της αληθειας.
9 For we rejoice that we are weak, while you are strong. This is also what we pray for: your perfection.	9 Επειδη χαιρομεν οταν ημεις ασθενωμεν, σεις δε ησθε δυνατοι? τουτο μαλιστα και ευχομεθα, την τελειοποιησιν σας.
10 Therefore, I write these things while absent, so that, when present, I may not have to act more harshly, according to the authority which the Lord has given to me, for edification and not for destruction.	10 Δια τουτο ταυτα γραφω απων, δια να μη φερθω αποτομως παρων κατα την εξουσιαν, την οποιαν μοι εδωκεν ο Κυριος προς οικοδομην και ουχι προς καθαιρεσιν.
11 As to the rest, brothers, rejoice, be perfect, be encouraged, have the same mind, have peace. And so the God of peace and love will be with you.	11 Λοιπον, αδελφοι, χαιρετε, τελειοποιεισθε, παραμυθεισθε, φρονειτε το αυτο, ειρηνευετε? και ο Θεος της αγαπης και της ειρηνης θελει εισθαι μεθ' υμων.
12 Greet one another with a holy kiss. All the saints greet you.	12 Ασπασθητε αλληλους εν φιληματι αγιω.
13 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the charity of God, and the communion of the Holy Spirit be with you all. Amen.	13 Σας ασπαζονται παντες οι αγιοι.
	14 Η χαρις του Κυριου Ιησου Χριστου και η αγαπη του Θεου και η κοινωνια του Αγιου Πνευματος ειη μετα παντων υμων? αμην.
