Seconda lettera ai Corinzi 2

NOVA VULGATA	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 Statui autem hoc ipse apud me, ne iterum in tristitia venirem ad vos;	1 But I determined this with myself, that I would not come again to you in heaviness.
2 si enim ego contristo vos, et quis est qui me laetificet, nisi qui contristaturex me?	2 For if I make you sorry, who is he then that maketh me glad, but the same which is made sorry by me?
3 Et hoc ipsum scripsi, ut non, cum venero, tristitiam habeam de quibusoportebat me gaudere, confidens in omnibus vobis, quia meum gaudium omniumvestrum est.	3 And I wrote this same unto you, lest, when I came, I should have sorrow from them of whom I ought to rejoice; having confidence in you all, that my joy is the joy of you all.
4 Nam ex multa tribulatione et angustia cordis scripsi vobis permultas lacrimas, non ut contristemini, sed ut sciatis quam carita tem habeoabundantius in vos.	4 For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote unto you with many tears; not that ye should be grieved, but that ye might know the love which I have more abundantly unto you.
5 Si quis autem contristavit, non me contristavit, sed exparte, ut non onerem, omnes vos.	5 But if any have caused grief, he hath not grieved me, but in part: that I may not overcharge you all.
6 Sufficit illi, qui eiusmodi est, obiurgatiohaec, quae fit a pluribus,	6 Sufficient to such a man is this punishment, which was inflicted of many.
7 ita ut e contra magis donetis et consolemini, neforte abundantiore tristitia absorbeatur, qui eiusmodi est.	7 So that contrariwise ye ought rather to forgive him, and comfort him, lest perhaps such a one should be swallowed up with overmuch sorrow.
8 Propter quodobsecro vos, ut confirmetis in illum caritatem;	8 Wherefore I beseech you that ye would confirm your love toward him.
9 ideo enim et scripsi, utcognoscam probationem vestram, an in omnibus oboedientes sitis.	9 For to this end also did I write, that I might know the proof of you, whether ye be obedient in all things.
10 Cui autemaliquid donatis, et ego; nam et ego, quod donavi, si quid donavi, propter vos inpersona Christi,	10 To whom ye forgive any thing, I forgive also: for if I forgave any thing, to whom I forgave it, for your sakes forgave I it in the person of Christ;
11 ut non circumveniamur a Satana; non enim ignoramuscogitationes eius.	11 Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices.
12 Cum venissem autem Troadem ob evangelium Christi, et ostium mihi apertumesset in Domino,	12 Furthermore, when I came to Troas to preach Christ's gospel, and a door was opened unto me of the Lord,
13 non habui requiem spiritui meo, eo quod non invenerim Titumfratrem meum, sed valefaciens eis profectus sum in Macedoniam.	13 I had no rest in my spirit, because I found not Titus my brother: but taking my leave of them, I went from thence into Macedonia.
14 Deo autemgratias, qui semper triumphat nos in Christo et odorem notitiae suae manifestatper nos in omni loco.	14 Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place.
15 Quia Christi bonus odor sumus Deo in his, qui salvifiunt, et in his, qui pereunt:	15 For we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ, in them that are saved, and in them that perish:
16 aliis quidem odor ex morte in mortem, aliisautem odor ex vita in vitam. Et ad haec quis idoneus?	16 To the one we are the savour of death unto death; and to the other the savour of life unto life. And who is sufficient for these things?
17 Non enim sumus sicutplurimi adulterantes verbum Dei, sed sicut ex sinceritate, sed sicut ex Deocoram Deo in Christo loquimur.	17 For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ.
