Druga poslanica Korinćanima 13

Biblija Hrvatski	NEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 Evo treći put idem k vama. Svaka presuda neka počiva na iskazu dvojice ili trojice svjedoka.	1 This third time I am coming to you. "On the testimony of two or three witnesses a fact shall be established."
2 Onima koji su prije sagriješili i svima drugima rekoh već i opet – kao onda drugi put nazočan, tako i sada nenazočan – unaprijed velim: ako opet dođem, neću štedjeti.	2 I warned those who sinned earlier and all the others, and I warn them now while absent, as I did when present on my second visit, that if I come again I will not be lenient,
3 Jer vi tražite dokaz da u meni govori Krist koji prema vama nije nemoćan, nego je snažan među vama.	3 since you are looking for proof of Christ speaking in me. He is not weak toward you but powerful in you.
4 I raspet bî, istina, po slabosti, ali živi po snazi Božjoj. I mi smo, istina, slabi u njemu, ali ćemo po snazi Božjoj živjeti s njime za vas.	4 For indeed he was crucified out of weakness, but he lives by the power of God. So also we are weak in him, but toward you we shall live with him by the power of God.
5 Same sebe ispitujte, jeste li u vjeri! Same sebe provjeravajte! Zar ne spoznajete sami sebe: da je Isus Krist u vama? Inače niste prâvi.	5 Examine yourselves to see whether you are living in faith. Test yourselves. Do you not realize that Jesus Christ is in you?--unless, of course, you fail the test.
6 A spoznat ćete, nadam se, da smo mi prâvi.	6 I hope you will discover that we have not failed.
7 Molimo se Bogu da ne činite nikakva zla; ne da se mi pokažemo prâvi, nego da vi dobro činite, pa izašli mi i kao nepravi.	7 But we pray to God that you may not do evil, not that we may appear to have passed the test but that you may do what is right, even though we may seem to have failed.
8 Ta ništa ne možemo protiv istine, nego samo za istinu.	8 For we cannot do anything against the truth, but only for the truth.
9 Da, radujemo se kad smo mi slabi, a vi jaki. Za to se i molimo, za vaše usavršavanje.	9 For we rejoice when we are weak but you are strong. What we pray for is your improvement.
10 To vam nenazočan pišem zato da nazočan ne bih morao oštro nastupiti vlašću koju mi Gospodin dade za izgrađivanje, a ne za rušenje.	10 I am writing this while I am away, so that when I come I may not have to be severe in virtue of the authority that the Lord has given me to build up and not to tear down.
11 Uostalom, braćo, radujte se, usavršujte se, tješite se, složni budite, mir njegujte i Bog ljubavi i mira bit će s vama.	11 Finally, brothers, rejoice. Mend your ways, encourage one another, agree with one another, live in peace, and the God of love and peace will be with you.
12 Pozdravite jedni druge svetim cjelovom. Pozdravljaju vas svi sveti.	12 Greet one another with a holy kiss. All the holy ones greet you.
13 Milost Gospodina Isusa Krista, ljubav Boga i zajedništvo Duha Svetoga sa svima vama!	13 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the holy Spirit be with all of you.
