2 Corinthians 13 – KJV & NAV

King James Version

2 Corinthians 13:1-14

1This is the third time I am coming to you. In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established. 2I told you before, and foretell you, as if I were present, the second time; and being absent now I write to them which heretofore have sinned, and to all other, that, if I come again, I will not spare: 3Since ye seek a proof of Christ speaking in me, which to you-ward is not weak, but is mighty in you. 4For though he was crucified through weakness, yet he liveth by the power of God. For we also are weak in him, but we shall live with him by the power of God toward you. 5Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates? 6But I trust that ye shall know that we are not reprobates. 7Now I pray to God that ye do no evil; not that we should appear approved, but that ye should do that which is honest, though we be as reprobates. 8For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth. 9For we are glad, when we are weak, and ye are strong: and this also we wish, even your perfection. 10Therefore I write these things being absent, lest being present I should use sharpness, according to the power which the Lord hath given me to edification, and not to destruction.

11Finally, brethren, farewell. Be perfect, be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace shall be with you. 12Greet one another with an holy kiss.

13All the saints salute you. 14The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen.

تحذيرات أخيرة

1هَذِهِ الْمَرَّةُ الثَّالِثَةُ الَّتِي آتِي فِيهَا إِلَيْكُمْ. بِشَهَادَةِ شَاهِدَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلاثَةٍ يَثْبُتُ كُلُّ أَمْرٍ. 2سَبَقَ لِي أَنْ أَعْلَنْتُ، وَهَا أَنَا أَقُولُ مُقَدَّماً وَأَنَا غَائِبٌ، كَمَا قُلْتُ وَأَنَا حَاضِرٌ عِنْدَكُمْ فِي الْمَرَّةِ الثَّانِيَةِ، لِلَّذِينَ أَخْطَأُوا فِي الْمَاضِي وَلِلْبَاقِينَ جَمِيعاً: إِنِّي إِذَا عُدْتُ إِلَيْكُمْ فَلا أُشْفِقُ، 3مَادُمْتُمْ تَطْلُبُونَ بُرْهَاناً عَلَى أَنَّ الْمَسِيحَ يَتَكَلَّمُ فِيَّ. وَهُوَ لَيْسَ ضَعِيفاً تُجَاهَكُمْ، بَلْ قَوِيٌّ فِي مَا بَيْنَكُمْ. 4فَمَعَ أَنَّهُ قَدْ صُلِبَ فِي ضَعْفٍ، فَهُوَ الآنَ حَيٌّ بِقُدْرَةِ اللهِ. وَنَحْنُ أَيْضاً ضُعَفَاءُ فِيهِ، وَلكِنَّنَا، بِتَصَرُّفِنَا مَعَكُمْ، سَنَكُونُ أَحْيَاءَ مَعَهُ بِقُدْرَةِ اللهِ. 5لِذَلِكَ امْتَحِنُوا أَنْفُسَكُمْ لِتَرَوْا هَلْ أَنْتُمْ فِي الإِيمَانِ. اخْتَبِرُوا أَنْفُسَكُمْ. أَلَسْتُمْ تَعْرِفُونَ أَنْفُسَكُمْ، أَنَّ يَسُوعَ الْمَسِيحَ فِيكُمْ، إِلّا إِذَا تَبَيَّنَ أَنَّكُمْ فَاشِلُونَ؟ 6غَيْرَ أَنِّي أَرْجُو أَنَّهُ سَيَتَبَيَّنُ لَكُمْ أَنَّنَا نَحْنُ لَسْنَا فَاشِلِينَ.

7وَنُصَلِّي إِلَى اللهِ أَلّا تَفْعَلُوا أَيَّ شَرٍّ، لَا لِكَيْ يَتَبَيَّنَ أَنَّنَا نَحْنُ فَاضِلُونَ، بَلْ لِكَيْ تَفْعَلُوا أَنْتُمْ مَا هُوَ حَقٌّ، وَإِنْ كُنَّا نَحْنُ كَأَنَّنَا فَاشِلُونَ. 8فَإِنَّنَا لَا نَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ نَفْعَلَ شَيْئاً ضِدَّ الْحَقِّ بَلْ لأَجْلِ الْحَقِّ. 9وَكَمْ نَفْرَحُ عِنْدَمَا نَكُونُ نَحْنُ ضُعَفَاءَ وَتَكُونُونَ أَنْتُمْ أَقْوِيَاءَ؛ حَتَّى إِنَّنَا نُصَلِّي طَالِبِينَ لَكُمُ الْكَمَالَ! 10لِهَذَا أَكْتُبُ إِلَيْكُمْ بِهَذِهِ الأُمُورِ وَأَنَا غَائِبٌ، حَتَّى إِذَا حَضَرْتُ لَا أَلْجَأُ إِلَى الْحَزْمِ بِحَسَبِ السُّلْطَةِ الَّتِي مَنَحَنِي إِيَّاهَا الرَّبُّ لِلْبُنْيَانِ لَا لِلْهَدْمِ.

تحيات ختامية

11وَأَخِيراً، أَيُّهَا الإِخْوَةُ: افْرَحُوا؛ تَكَمَّلُوا؛ تَشَجَّعُوا؛ اتَّفِقُوا فِي الرَّأْيِ؛ عِيشُوا بِسَلامٍ. وَإِلَهُ الْمَحَبَّةِ وَالسَّلامِ سَيَكُونُ مَعَكُمْ!

12سَلِّمُوا بَعْضُكُمْ عَلَى بَعْضٍ بِقُبْلَةٍ طَاهِرَةٍ. 13جَمِيعُ الْقِدِّيسِينَ يُسَلِّمُونَ عَلَيْكُمْ.

14وَلْتَكُنْ مَعَكُمْ جَمِيعاً نِعْمَةُ رَبِّنَا يَسُوعَ الْمَسِيحِ، وَمَحَبَّةُ اللهِ، وَشَرِكَةُ الرُّوحِ الْقُدُسِ. آمِين!
