Ad Corinthios II 2

VULGATA	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 Statui autem hoc ipsum 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 lætificet, nisi qui contristatur ex 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 vobis, ut non cum venero, tristitiam super tristitiam habeam, de quibus oportuerat me gaudere : confidens in omnibus vobis, quia meum gaudium, omnium vestrum 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 per multas lacrimas : non ut contristemini, sed ut sciatis, quam caritatem habeam abundantius in vobis.	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 ex parte, 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 ejusmodi est, objurgatio hæc, quæ fit a pluribus :	6 Sufficient to such a man is this punishment, which was inflicted of many.
7 ita ut e contrario magis donetis, et consolemini, ne forte abundantiori tristitia absorbeatur qui ejusmodi 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 quod obsecro vos, ut confirmetis in illum caritatem.	8 Wherefore I beseech you that ye would confirm your love toward him.
9 Ideo enim et scripsi, ut cognoscam experimentum vestrum, an in omnibus obedientes 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 autem aliquid donastis, et ego : nam et ego quod donavi, si quid donavi, propter vos in persona 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 ignoramus cogitationes ejus.	11 Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices.
12 Cum venissem autem Troadem propter Evangelium Christi, et ostium mihi apertum esset 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 Titum fratrem 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 autem gratias, qui semper triumphat nos in Christo Jesu, et odorem notitiæ suæ manifestat per 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 iis qui salvi fiunt, et in iis 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 mortis in mortem : aliis autem odor vitæ in vitam. Et ad hæc quis tam 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 sicut plurimi, adulterantes verbum Dei, sed ex sinceritate, sed sicut ex Deo, coram 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.
