| [1]Αὐτὸς δὲ ἐγὼ Παῦλος παρακαλῶ ὑμᾶς διὰ τῆς πραΰτητος καὶ ἐπιεικείας τοῦ Χριστοῦ, ὃς κατὰ πρόσωπον μὲν ταπεινὸς ἐν ὑμῖν, ἀπὼν δὲ θαρρῶ εἰς ὑμᾶς· |
[1]NowG1161 IG1473 PaulG3972 myselfG846 beseechG3870[G5719] youG5209 byG1223 the meeknessG4236 andG2532 gentlenessG1932 of ChristG5547, whoG3739 inG2596 presenceG4383 am baseG3303[G5011] amongG1722 youG5213, butG1161 being absentG548[G5752] am boldG2292[G5719] towardG1519 youG5209: |
| [2]δέομαι δὲ τὸ μὴ παρὼν θαρρῆσαι τῇ πεποιθήσει ᾗ λογίζομαι τολμῆσαι ἐπί τινας τοὺς λογιζομένους ἡμᾶς ὡς κατὰ σάρκα περιπατοῦντας. |
[2]ButG1161 I beseechG1189[G5736] you, that I may notG3361 be boldG2292[G5658] when I am presentG3918[G5752] with that confidenceG4006, wherewithG3739 I thinkG3049[G5736] to be boldG5111[G5658] againstG1909 someG5100, whichG3588 thinkG3049[G5740] of usG2248 asG5613 if we walkedG4043[G5723] accordingG2596 to the fleshG4561. |
| [3]Ἐν σαρκὶ γὰρ περιπατοῦντες οὐ κατὰ σάρκα στρατευόμεθα, |
[3]ForG1063 though we walkG4043[G5723] inG1722 the fleshG4561, we doG4754 notG3756 warG4754[G5731] afterG2596 the fleshG4561: |
| [4]τὰ γὰρ ὅπλα τῆς στρατείας ἡμῶν οὐ σαρκικὰ ἀλλὰ δυνατὰ τῷ Θεῷ πρὸς καθαίρεσιν ὀχυρωμάτων, λογισμοὺς καθαιροῦντες |
[4](ForG1063 the weaponsG3696 of ourG2257 warfareG4752 are notG3756 carnalG4559, butG235 mightyG1415 through GodG2316 toG4314 the pulling downG2506 of strong holdsG3794;) |
| [5]καὶ πᾶν ὕψωμα ἐπαιρόμενον κατὰ τῆς γνώσεως τοῦ Θεοῦ, καὶ αἰχμαλωτίζοντες πᾶν νόημα εἰς τὴν ὑπακοὴν τοῦ Χριστοῦ, |
[5]Casting downG2507[G5723] imaginationsG3053, andG2532 everyG3956 high thingG5313 that exalteth itselfG1869[G5734] againstG2596 the knowledgeG1108 of GodG2316, andG2532 bringing into captivityG163[G5723] everyG3956 thoughtG3540 toG1519 the obedienceG5218 of ChristG5547; |
| [6]καὶ ἐν ἑτοίμῳ ἔχοντες ἐκδικῆσαι πᾶσαν παρακοήν, ὅταν πληρωθῇ ὑμῶν ἡ ὑπακοή. |
[6]AndG2532 havingG2192[G5723] inG1722 a readinessG2092 to revengeG1556[G5658] allG3956 disobedienceG3876, whenG3752 yourG5216 obedienceG5218 is fulfilledG4137.[G5686] |
| [7]Τὰ κατὰ πρόσωπον βλέπετε. εἴ τις πέποιθεν ἑαυτῷ Χριστοῦ εἶναι, τοῦτο λογιζέσθω πάλιν ἐφ’ ἑαυτοῦ, ὅτι καθὼς αὐτὸς Χριστοῦ, οὕτως καὶ ἡμεῖς. |
[7]Do ye look onG991[G5719] things afterG2596 the outward appearanceG4383? If any manG1536 trustG3982[G5754] to himselfG1438 that he isG1511[G5750] Christ'sG5547, let himG3049 ofG575 himselfG1438 thinkG3049[G5737] thisG5124 againG3825, thatG3754, asG2531 heG846 is Christ'sG5547, evenG2532 soG3779 are weG2249 Christ'sG5547. |
| [8]ἐάν τε γὰρ περισσότερόν τι καυχήσωμαι περὶ τῆς ἐξουσίας ἡμῶν, ἧς ἔδωκεν ὁ Κύριος εἰς οἰκοδομὴν καὶ οὐκ εἰς καθαίρεσιν ὑμῶν, οὐκ αἰσχυνθήσομαι, |
[8]ForG1063[G2532] thoughG1437[G5037] I should boastG2744[G5667] somewhatG5100 moreG4055 ofG4012 ourG2257 authorityG1849, whichG3739 the LordG2962 hath givenG1325[G5656] usG2254 forG1519 edificationG3619, andG2532 notG3756 forG1519 yourG5216 destructionG2506, I shouldG153 notG3756 be ashamedG153:[G5701] |
| [9]ἵνα μὴ δόξω ὡς ἂν ἐκφοβεῖν ὑμᾶς διὰ τῶν ἐπιστολῶν. |
[9]ThatG3363 I mayG1380 notG3363 seemG1380[G5661] asG5613 ifG302 I would terrifyG1629[G5721] youG5209 byG1223 lettersG1992. |
| [10]ὅτι Αἱ ἐπιστολαὶ μέν, φησίν, βαρεῖαι καὶ ἰσχυραί, ἡ δὲ παρουσία τοῦ σώματος ἀσθενὴς καὶ ὁ λόγος ἐξουθενημένος. |
[10]ForG3754 his lettersG1992[G3303], say theyG5346[G5748], are weightyG926 andG2532 powerfulG2478; butG1161 his bodilyG4983 presenceG3952 is weakG772, andG2532 his speechG3056 contemptibleG1848.[G5772] |
| [11]τοῦτο λογιζέσθω ὁ τοιοῦτος, ὅτι οἷοί ἐσμεν τῷ λόγῳ δι’ ἐπιστολῶν ἀπόντες, τοιοῦτοι καὶ παρόντες τῷ ἔργῳ. |
[11]LetG3049 such an oneG5108 thinkG3049[G5737] thisG5124, thatG3754, such asG3634 we areG2070[G5748] in wordG3056 byG1223 lettersG1992 when we are absentG548[G5752], suchG5108 will we be alsoG2532 in deedG2041 when we are presentG3918.[G5752] |
| [12]Οὐ γὰρ τολμῶμεν ἐνκρῖναι ἢ συνκρῖναι ἑαυτούς τισιν τῶν ἑαυτοὺς συνιστανόντων· ἀλλὰ αὐτοὶ ἐν ἑαυτοῖς ἑαυτοὺς μετροῦντες καὶ συνκρίνοντες ἑαυτοὺς ἑαυτοῖς οὐ συνιᾶσιν. |
[12]ForG1063 we dareG5111[G5719] notG3756 makeG1469 ourselves of the numberG1469[G5658], orG2228 compareG4793 ourselvesG1438 withG4793[G5658] someG5100 that commendG4921[G5723] themselvesG1438: butG235 theyG846 measuringG3354[G5723] themselvesG1438 byG1722 themselvesG1438, andG2532 comparingG4793 themselvesG1438 amongG4793[G5723] themselvesG1438, areG4920 notG3756 wiseG4920.[G5719] |
| [13]ἡμεῖς δὲ οὐκ εἰς τὰ ἄμετρα καυχησόμεθα, ἀλλὰ κατὰ τὸ μέτρον τοῦ κανόνος οὗ ἐμέρισεν ἡμῖν ὁ Θεὸς μέτρου, ἐφικέσθαι ἄχρι καὶ ὑμῶν. |
[13]ButG1161 weG2249 willG2744 notG3780 boastG2744[G5695] of things withoutG1519 our measureG280, butG235 accordingG2596 to the measureG3358 of the ruleG2583 whichG3739 GodG2316 hath distributedG3307[G5656] to usG2254, a measureG3358 to reachG2185[G5635] evenG2532 untoG891 youG5216. |
| [14]οὐ γὰρ ὡς μὴ ἐφικνούμενοι εἰς ὑμᾶς ὑπερεκτείνομεν ἑαυτούς, ἄχρι γὰρ καὶ ὑμῶν ἐφθάσαμεν ἐν τῷ εὐαγγελίῳ τοῦ Χριστοῦ· |
[14]ForG1063 we stretchG5239 notG3756 ourselvesG1438 beyondG5239[G5719] our measure, asG5613 though we reachedG2185[G5740] notG3361 untoG1519 youG5209: forG1063 we are comeG5348[G5656] as far asG891 to youG5216 alsoG2532 inG1722 preaching the gospelG2098 of ChristG5547: |
| [15]οὐκ εἰς τὰ ἄμετρα καυχώμενοι ἐν ἀλλοτρίοις κόποις, ἐλπίδα δὲ ἔχοντες αὐξανομένης τῆς πίστεως ὑμῶν ἐν ὑμῖν μεγαλυνθῆναι κατὰ τὸν κανόνα ἡμῶν εἰς περισσείαν, |
[15]NotG3756 boastingG2744[G5740] of things withoutG1519 our measureG280, that is, ofG1722 other men'sG245 laboursG2873; butG1161 havingG2192[G5723] hopeG1680, when yourG5216 faithG4102 is increasedG837[G5746], that we shall be enlargedG3170[G5683] byG1722 youG5213 accordingG2596 to ourG2257 ruleG2583 G1519abundantlyG4050 |
| [16]εἰς τὰ ὑπερέκεινα ὑμῶν εὐαγγελίσασθαι, οὐκ ἐν ἀλλοτρίῳ κανόνι εἰς τὰ ἕτοιμα καυχήσασθαι. |
[16]To preach the gospelG2097[G5670] inG1519 the regions beyondG5238 youG5216, and notG3756 to boastG2744[G5664] inG1722 another man'sG245 lineG2583 ofG1519 things made ready to our handG2092. |
| [17]Ὁ δὲ καυχώμενος ἐν Κυρίῳ καυχάσθω· |
[17]ButG1161 he that gloriethG2744[G5740], let him gloryG2744[G5737] inG1722 the LordG2962. |
| [18]οὐ γὰρ ὁ ἑαυτὸν συνιστάνων, ἐκεῖνός ἐστιν δόκιμος, ἀλλὰ ὃν ὁ Κύριος συνίστησιν. |
[18]ForG1063 notG3756 heG1565 that commendethG4921[G5723] himselfG1438 isG2076[G5748] approvedG1384, butG235 whomG3739 the LordG2962 commendethG4921.[G5719] |
