2 Corinthians 13

Authored by: American Standard Version
13:1
Τριτον τουτο ερχομαι προς υμας Επι στοματος δυο μαρτυρων και τριων σταθησεται παν ρημα
This is the third time I am coming to you. At the mouth of two witnesses or three shall every word be established.
13:2
Προειρηκα και προλεγω ως παρων το δευτερον και απων νυν τοις προημαρτηκοσιν και τοις λοιποις πασιν οτι εαν ελθω εις το παλιν ου φεισομαι
I have said beforehand, and I do say beforehand, as when I was present the second time, so now, being absent, to them that have sinned heretofore, and to all the rest, that, if I come again, I will not spare;
13:3
επει δοκιμην ζητειτε του εν εμοι λαλουντος Χριστου ος εις υμας ουκ ασθενει αλλα δυνατει εν υμιν
seeing that ye seek a proof of Christ that speaketh in me; who to you-ward is not weak, but is powerful in you:
13:4
και γαρ εσταυρωθη εξ ασθενειας αλλα ζη εκ δυναμεως Θεου και γαρ ημεις ασθενουμεν εν αυτω αλλα ζησομεν συν αυτω εκ δυναμεως Θεου εις υμας
for he was crucified through weakness, yet he liveth through the power of God. For we also are weak in him, but we shall live with him through the power of God toward you.
13:5
Εαυτους πειραζετε ει εστε εν τη πιστει εαυτους δοκιμαζετε η ουκ επιγινωσκετε εαυτους οτι Ιησους Χριστος εν υμιν ει μητι αδοκιμοι εστε
Try your own selves, whether ye are in the faith; prove your own selves. Or know ye not as to your own selves, that Jesus Christ is in you? unless indeed ye be reprobate.
1
13:6
ελπιζω δε οτι γνωσεσθε οτι ημεις ουκ εσμεν αδοκιμοι
But I hope that ye shall know that we are not reprobate.
13:7
Ευχομεθα δε προς τον Θεον μη ποιησαι υμας κακον μηδεν ουχ ινα ημεις δοκιμοι φανωμεν αλλ ινα υμεις το καλον ποιητε ημεις δε ως αδοκιμοι ωμεν
Now we pray to God that ye do no evil; not that we may appear approved, but that ye may do that which is honorable, though we be as reprobate.
13:8
ου γαρ δυναμεθα τι κατα της αληθειας αλλα υπερ της αληθειας
For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth.
13:9
χαιρομεν γαρ οταν ημεις ασθενωμεν υμεις δε δυνατοι ητε τουτο και ευχομεθα την υμων καταρτισιν
For we rejoice, when we are weak, and ye are strong: this we also pray for, even your perfecting.
13:10
Δια τουτο ταυτα απων γραφω ινα παρων μη αποτομως χρησωμαι κατα την εξουσιαν ην ο Κυριος εδωκεν μοι εις οικοδομην και ουκ εις καθαιρεσιν
For this cause I write these things while absent, that I may not when present deal sharply, according to the authority which the Lord gave me for building up, and not for casting down.
13:11
Λοιπον αδελφοι χαιρετε καταρτιζεσθε παρακαλεισθε το αυτο φρονειτε ειρηνευετε και ο Θεος της αγαπης και ειρηνης εσται μεθ υμων
Finally, brethren, farewell. Be perfected; be comforted; be of the same mind; live in peace: and the God of love and peace shall be with you.
13:12
Ασπασασθε αλληλους εν αγιω φιληματι Ασπαζονται υμας οι αγιοι παντες
Salute one another with a holy kiss.
13:13
Η χαρις του Κυριου Ιησου Χριστου και η αγαπη του Θεου και η κοινωνια του Αγιου Πνευματος μετα παντων υμων
All the saints salute you.
13:14
The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Spirit, be with you all.
