|
|
4. Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.
|
4. Who G3588 comforteth G3870 us G2248 in G1909 all G3956 our G2257 tribulation G2347 , that we G2248 may be able G1410 to comfort G3870 them G3588 which are in G1722 any G3956 trouble G2347 , by G1223 the G3588 comfort G3874 wherewith G3739 we G848 ourselves are comforted G3870 of G5259 God G2316 .
|
|
5. For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also aboundeth by Christ.
|
5. For G3754 as G2531 the G3588 sufferings G3804 of Christ G5547 abound G4052 in G1519 us G2248 , so G3779 our G2257 consolation G3874 also G2532 aboundeth G4052 by G1223 Christ G5547 .
|
|
6. And whether we be afflicted, it is for your consolation and salvation, which is effectual in the enduring of the same sufferings which we also suffer: or whether we be comforted, it is for your consolation and salvation.
|
6. And G1161 whether G1535 we be afflicted G2346 , it is for G5228 your G5216 consolation G3874 and G2532 salvation G4991 , which is effectual G1754 in G1722 the enduring G5281 of the G3588 same G846 sufferings G3804 which G3739 we G2249 also G2532 suffer G3958 : or whether G1535 we be comforted G3870 , it is for G5228 your G5216 consolation G3874 and G2532 salvation G4991 .
|
|
7. And our hope of you is stedfast, knowing, that as ye are partakers of the sufferings, so shall ye be also of the consolation.
|
7. And G2532 our G2257 hope G1680 of G5228 you G5216 is steadfast G949 , knowing G1492 , that G3754 as G5618 ye are G2075 partakers G2844 of the G3588 sufferings G3804 , so G3779 shall ye be also G2532 of the G3588 consolation G3874 .
|
|
8. For we would not, brethren, have you ignorant of our trouble which came to us in Asia, that we were pressed out of measure, above strength, insomuch that we despaired even of life:
|
8. For G1063 we would G2309 not G3756 , brethren G80 , have you ignorant G50 G5209 of G5228 our G2257 trouble G2347 which came G1096 to us G2254 in G1722 Asia G773 , that G3754 we were pressed G916 out of measure G2596 G5236 , above G5228 strength G1411 , insomuch that G5620 we G2248 despaired G1820 even G2532 of life G2198 :
|
|
9. But we had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God which raiseth the dead:
|
9. But G235 we G848 had G2192 the G3588 sentence G610 of death G2288 in G1722 ourselves G1438 , that G2443 we should G5600 not G3361 trust G3982 in G1909 ourselves G1438 , but G235 in G1909 God G2316 which raiseth G1453 the G3588 dead G3498 :
|
|
10. Who delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver: in whom we trust that he will yet deliver us;
|
10. Who G3739 delivered G4506 us G2248 from G1537 so great G5082 a death G2288 , and G2532 doth deliver G4506 : in G1519 whom G3739 we trust G1679 that G3754 he will G2532 yet G2089 deliver G4506 us;
|
|
11. Ye also helping together by prayer for us, that for the gift bestowed upon us by the means of many persons thanks may be given by many on our behalf.
|

|
|
12. For our rejoicing is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity and godly sincerity, not with fleshly wisdom, but by the grace of God, we have had our conversation in the world, and more abundantly to you-ward.
|
12. For G1063 our G2257 rejoicing G2746 is G2076 this G3778 , the G3588 testimony G3142 of our G2257 conscience G4893 , that G3754 in G1722 simplicity G572 and G2532 godly G2316 sincerity G1505 , not G3756 with G1722 fleshly G4559 wisdom G4678 , but G235 by G1722 the grace G5485 of God G2316 , we have had our conversation G390 in G1722 the G3588 world G2889 , and G1161 more abundantly G4056 to G4314 you G5209 -ward.
|
|
13. For we write none other things unto you, than what ye read or acknowledge; and I trust ye shall acknowledge even to the end;
|
13. For G1063 we write G1125 none G3756 other things G243 unto you G5213 , than G235 G2228 what G3739 ye read G314 or G2228 G2532 acknowledge G1921 ; and G1161 I trust G1679 ye shall G3754 acknowledge G1921 even G2532 to G2193 the end G5056 ;
|
|
14. As also ye have acknowledged us in part, that we are your rejoicing, even as ye also are ours in the day of the Lord Jesus.
|
14. As G2531 also G2532 ye have acknowledged G1921 us G2248 in G575 part G3313 , that G3754 we are G2070 your G5216 rejoicing G2745 , even as G2509 ye G5210 also G2532 are ours G2257 in G1722 the G3588 day G2250 of the G3588 Lord G2962 Jesus G2424 .
|
|
15. And in this confidence I was minded to come unto you before, that ye might have a second benefit;
|
15. And G2532 in this G5026 confidence G4006 I was minded G1014 to come G2064 unto G4314 you G5209 before G4386 , that G2443 ye might have G2192 a second G1208 benefit G5485 ;
|
|
16. And to pass by you into Macedonia, and to come again out of Macedonia unto you, and of you to be brought on my way toward Judaea.
|
16. And G2532 to pass G1330 by G1223 you G5216 into G1519 Macedonia G3109 , and G2532 to come G2064 again G3825 out of G575 Macedonia G3109 unto G4314 you G5209 , and G2532 of G5259 you G5216 to be brought on my way G4311 toward G1519 Judea G2449 .
|
|
17. When I therefore was thus minded, did I use lightness? or the things that I purpose, do I purpose according to the flesh, that with me there should be yea yea, and nay nay?
|
17. When I therefore G3767 was thus minded G1011 G5124 , did I G3385 G686 use G5530 lightness G1644 ? or G2228 the things that G3739 I purpose G1011 , do I purpose G1011 according G2596 to the flesh G4561 , that G2443 with G3844 me G1698 there should be G5600 yea G3483 yea G3483 , and G2532 nay G3756 nay G3756 ?
|
|
18. But as God is true, our word toward you was not yea and nay.
|
18. But G1161 as God G2316 is true G4103 G3754 , our G2257 word G3056 toward G4314 you G5209 was G1096 not G3756 yea and nay G3483 G2532 G3756 .
|
|
19. For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us, even by me and Silvanus and Timotheus, was not yea and nay, but in him was yea.
|
19. For G1063 the G3588 Son G5207 of God G2316 , Jesus G2424 Christ G5547 , who was preached G2784 among G1722 you G5213 by G1223 us G2257 , even by G1223 me G1700 and G2532 Silvanus G4610 and G2532 Timothy G5095 , was G1096 not G3756 yea and nay G3483 G2532 G3756 , but G235 in G1722 him G846 was G1096 yea G3483 .
|
|
20. For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us.
|
20. For G1063 all G3745 the promises G1860 of God G2316 in G1722 him G846 are G3588 yea G3483 , and G2532 in G1722 him G846 G3588 Amen G281 , unto G4314 the glory G1391 of God G2316 by G1223 us G2257 .
|
|
21. Now he which stablisheth us with you in Christ, and hath anointed us, is God;
|
21. Now G1161 he which establisheth G950 us G2248 with G4862 you G5213 in G1519 Christ G5547 , and G2532 hath anointed G5548 us G2248 , is God G2316 ;
|
|
22. Who hath also sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.
|
22. Who hath also sealed G4972 G2532 us G2248 , and G2532 given G1325 the G3588 earnest G728 of the G3588 Spirit G4151 in G1722 our G2257 hearts G2588 .
|
|
23. Moreover I call God for a record upon my soul, that to spare you I came not as yet unto Corinth.
|
23. Moreover G1161 I G1473 call G1941 God G2316 for a record G3144 upon G1909 my G1699 soul G5590 , that G3754 to spare G5339 you G5216 I came G2064 not as yet G3765 unto G1519 Corinth G2882 .
|
|
24. Not for that we have dominion over your faith, but are helpers of your joy: for by faith ye stand.
|
24. Not G3756 for that G3754 we have dominion over G2961 your G5216 faith G4102 , but G235 are G2070 helpers G4904 of your G5216 joy G5479 : for G1063 by faith G4102 ye stand G2476 .
