Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by
the will of God, and Timothy our brother, To the church
of God in
Corinth, together
with all the saints throughout
Achaia:
Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus through
the will of God, and Timothy our brother, to the assembly
of God which
is
at
Corinth, with all the saints who
are
in
the
whole
of
Achaia:
Grace and
peace
to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Grace to you and
peace
from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion
and the
God of all comfort ,
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies
and God of all comfort ;
who comforts us in all our troubles
, so
that we can
comfort those in any trouble
with
the comfort we ourselves have
received
from
God.
who comforts us in all our affliction
, that we may
be
able
to
comfort those who
are
in any affliction,
through
the comfort with
which
we ourselves are
comforted
by
God.
For just
as the sufferings of Christ overflow
to us, so also through Christ our
comfort
overflows
.
For as the sufferings of Christ abound
to us, even
so our
comfort
also abounds
through Christ.
If we are afflicted, it is for your comfort and salvation ;
if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which accomplishes
in you patient endurance
of the same sufferings we experience
.
But
if we are afflicted, it is for your comfort and salvation .
If we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which produces
in you the
patient enduring
of the same sufferings which
we also
suffer
.
And
our hope for you is sure
, because
we
know
that just
as
you share
in
our
sufferings, so also you will
share
in
our
comfort.
Our hope for you is steadfast
, knowing
that ,
since
you are
partakers
of
the
sufferings, so also are
you of
the
comfort.
We do
not
want
you
to be
unaware
, brothers, of
the
hardships
we
encountered
in the
province
of
Asia .
We were under
a
burden
far
beyond our ability
to
endure
, so that we despaired even of life.
For
we don't
desire
to have
you
uninformed
, brothers, concerning
our
affliction
which
happened
to
us
in Asia ,
that
we were weighed
down
exceedingly,
beyond our power
, so much
that we despaired even of life.
Indeed
, we felt
we
were
under
the sentence of death, in
order
that we would
not trust in ourselves, but in God ,
who raises the dead .
Yes
, we ourselves
have
had
the sentence of death within
ourselves
, that we should
not trust in ourselves, but in God who raises the dead ,
He
has
delivered us from
such
a deadly
peril
, and He
will
deliver us.
In
Him
we have placed
our hope that He will yet
again
deliver us ,
who
delivered us out
of
so
great
a death
, and does
deliver ;
on
whom
we have set
our hope that he will also
still
deliver us ;
as
you help
us
by
your
prayers.
Then
many
will
give
thanks
on our behalf for the favor
shown
us in
answer
to
their
prayers
.
you also
helping
together
on our behalf by
your
supplication;
that,
for the gift
bestowed
on
us by
means
of
many,
thanks
may
be
given
by
many
persons
on
your
behalf
.
And
this
is
our boast
: Our conscience testifies
that
we
have
conducted
ourselves
in
the
world
, and
especially
in
relation
to
you,
in the
holiness and sincerity that
are
from
God —
not in worldly
wisdom ,
but in the grace of God.
For
our boasting
is
this
: the
testimony
of
our conscience, that
in holiness and sincerity of
God ,
not in fleshly
wisdom but in the grace of God we
behaved
ourselves
in
the
world,
and
more
abundantly
toward
you
.
For we do
not
write you
anything
that
is
beyond
your
ability
to read and
understand.
And I hope that
you will understand
us
completely,
For we write no
other
things
to you,
than
what
you
read or
even
acknowledge,
and I hope you will acknowledge
to
the
end;
as you have
already
understood
us in part, so
that you
may
boast
of
us
just
as
we will
boast
of
you in the day of our Lord Jesus.
as also
you acknowledged
us in part, that we are
your
boasting,
even
as
you also
are
ours,
in the day of our Lord Jesus.
Confident
of
this, I planned
to visit
you
first, so
that you might receive
a double
blessing.
In
this confidence
, I was
determined
to come
first to
you
, that you might have
a second
benefit;
I
wanted
to
visit
you on
my
way
to Macedonia, and to return
to you from
Macedonia
, and then
to have
you help
me
on my way
to Judea.
and
by
you to pass
into
Macedonia, and again
from
Macedonia
to come
to you, and to be
sent
forward
by
you on my journey
to Judea.
When I planned
this
, did I do
it
carelessly
? Or do
I make
my
plans
by
human
standards
, so
as
to say
“
Yes, yes ”
when
I
really
mean
“
No, no ”
?
When I therefore
was
thus
determined
, did I show
fickleness
? Or the
things
that
I purpose
, do
I
purpose
according
to the
flesh,
that
with
me
there
should
be
the
"
Yes, yes "
and
the
"
No, no? "
But as surely
as
God is faithful, our message
to
you is
not “
Yes ”
and “
No. ”
But as God is faithful, our word
toward
you was
not "
Yes and no. "
For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was proclaimed
among you by me and
Silvanus and Timothy, was not “
Yes ”
and “
No, ”
but in Him it
has
always
been
“
Yes. ”
For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached
among you by us,
by
me ,
Silvanus ,
and Timothy, was not "
Yes and no, "
but in him is
"
Yes. "
For all
the promises of God are
“Yes”
in Christ
. And
so
through Him ,
our
“Amen”
is spoken
to the glory of God.
For however
many
are
the promises of God ,
in him
is
the
"Yes
. "
Therefore
also
through him is the
"Amen,"
to the glory of God through
us
.
Now it
is
God
who establishes both
us and
you in Christ .
He
anointed us,
Now he
who establishes us with
you in Christ ,
and
anointed us, is
God;
placed
His
seal
on
us, and put
His
Spirit in our hearts as
a
pledge
of
what
is
to
come
.
who
also
sealed
us, and gave
us
the
down
payment
of
the
Spirit in our hearts.
I call God as
my
witness that
it
was
in
order
to spare
you
that I did
not
return
to Corinth.
But
I call God for
a
witness to my
soul,
that I didn't
come
to Corinth to
spare
you
.
Not that we lord
it
over your faith, but we
are fellow workers with you for your joy ,
because
it
is
by
faith
that
you stand firm.
Not that we have
lordship
over your faith, but are fellow workers with you for your joy .
For
you stand firm in
faith
.
