Young's Literal Translation
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 Jesus Christ,
through
the will of God, and Timotheus
the
brother, to the assembly
of God that
is
in Corinth, with all the saints who
are
in
all
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 `is'
God ,
even
the
Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of the 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 is
comforting
us in all our tribulation
, for
our
being
able
to
comfort those in any tribulation
through
the comfort with
which
we are
comforted
ourselves by
God ;
For
just
as the sufferings of Christ overflow
to us, so also
through Christ our comfort overflows.
because,
as the sufferings of the
Christ do
abound
to us, so through the
Christ doth
abound
also
our comfort ;
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.
and
whether
we be
in
tribulation
, `
it is '
for your comfort and salvation ,
that
is
wrought
in
the
enduring
of
the
same
sufferings
that
we
also
suffer
; whether
we are comforted, `
it is '
for your comfort and
salvation;
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.
and our hope `is'
stedfast
for you, knowing
that even
as ye
are
partakers
of
the
sufferings --
so also 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 do not wish
you to be ignorant
, brethren
, of our
tribulation
that
happened
to
us
in Asia ,
that
we were exceedingly
burdened
above
`
our '
power
, so 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 .
but
we ourselves
in
ourselves
the sentence of the
death have
had
, that we may
not be
trusting
on
ourselves, but on
God, who is
raising
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
out
of
so
great
a death
did
deliver
us
, and doth
deliver ,
in whom
we have hoped
that even
yet
He will deliver ;
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
.
ye
working
together
also
for
us by your supplication,
that
the
gift
through
many persons
to
us,
through
many
may
be
thankfully
acknowledged
for us.
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 glorying
is
this
: the
testimony
of
our conscience, that
in simplicity
and sincerity of
God ,
not in fleshly
wisdom, but in the grace of God ,
we
did
conduct
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 no
other
things
do we
write to you,
but
what
ye
either
do
read or
also
acknowledge,
and I hope that also
unto
the
end
ye
shall
acknowledge
,
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 .
according
as also
ye
did
acknowledge
us in part, that your
glory
we are,
even
as
also
ye
`are'
ours,
in the day of the
Lord Jesus ;
Confident
of
this ,
I planned
to visit
you first
, so
that you
might
receive
a double
blessing.
and
in
this confidence
I was
purposing
to come
unto
you before
, that a second
favour
ye
might
have,
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
through
you to pass
to
Macedonia, and again
from Macedonia to
come
unto
you
, and by
you to be
sent
forward
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 ”
?
This, therefore,
counselling,
did I then
use
the
lightness;
or the
things
that
I counsel
, according
to the
flesh
do
I
counsel,
that
it
may
be
with
me
Yes, yes ,
and
No, no?
But
as
surely
as
God is faithful, our message
to
you is
not “
Yes ”
and “
No .”
and
God `
is '
faithful, that
our word
unto
you became
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, among you through
us
having
been
preached
--
through
me and Silvanus and Timotheus
--
did
not become
Yes and No, but in him it hath
become
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 as
many
as
`are'
promises of God ,
in
him
`
are '
the
Yes ,
and in
him the Amen,
for
glory to
God through
us;
Now
it
is
God
who
establishes
both
us
and you in
Christ .
He
anointed
us,
and He
who
is
confirming
you with
us
into
Christ ,
and
did
anoint
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
the
earnest
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 .
And
I for
a
witness
on
God do
call
upon
my soul,
that sparing
you ,
I came
not yet
to Corinth ;
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 are
lords
over your faith, but we are workers together
with your joy, for
by the
faith ye
stand.
