World English Bible
1οφελον ανειχεσθε μου μικρον τη αφροσυνη αλλα και ανεχεσθε μου
1I wish that you would bear with me in a little foolishness, but indeed you do bear with me.
2ζηλω γαρ υμασ θεου ζηλω ηρμοσαμην γαρ υμασ ενι ανδρι παρθενον αγνην παραστησαι τω χριστω
2For I am jealous over you with a godly jealousy. For I promised you in marriage to one husband, that I might present you as a pure virgin to Christ.
3φοβουμαι δε μηπωσ ωσ ο οφισ ευαν εξηπατησεν εν τη πανουργια αυτου ουτωσ φθαρη τα νοηματα υμων απο τησ απλοτητοσ τησ εισ τον χριστον
3But I am afraid that somehow, as the serpent deceived Eve in his craftiness, so your minds might be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.
4ει μεν γαρ ο ερχομενοσ αλλον ιησουν κηρυσσει ον ουκ εκηρυξαμεν η πνευμα ετερον λαμβανετε ο ουκ ελαβετε η ευαγγελιον ετερον ο ουκ εδεξασθε καλωσ ηνειχεσθε
4For if he who comes preaches another Jesus whom we didn’t preach, or if you receive a different spirit which you didn’t receive, or a different “good news” which you didn’t accept, you put up with that well enough.
5λογιζομαι γαρ μηδεν υστερηκεναι των υπερ λιαν αποστολων
5For I reckon that I am not at all behind the very best apostles.
6ει δε και ιδιωτησ τω λογω αλλ ου τη γνωσει αλλ εν παντι φανερωθεντεσ εν πασιν εισ υμασ
6But though I am unskilled in speech, yet I am not unskilled in knowledge. No, in every way we have been revealed to you in all things.
7η αμαρτιαν εποιησα εμαυτον ταπεινων ινα υμεισ υψωθητε οτι δωρεαν το του θεου ευαγγελιον ευηγγελισαμην υμιν
7Or did I commit a sin in humbling myself that you might be exalted, because I preached to you God’s Good News free of charge?
8αλλασ εκκλησιασ εσυλησα λαβων οψωνιον προσ την υμων διακονιαν
8I robbed other assemblies, taking wages from them that I might serve you.
9και παρων προσ υμασ και υστερηθεισ ου κατεναρκησα ουδενοσ το γαρ υστερημα μου προσανεπληρωσαν οι αδελφοι ελθοντεσ απο μακεδονιασ και εν παντι αβαρη υμιν εμαυτον ετηρησα και τηρησω
9When I was present with you and was in need, I wasn’t a burden on anyone, for the brothers, when they came from Macedonia, supplied the measure of my need. In everything I kept myself from being burdensome to you, and I will continue to do so.
10εστιν αληθεια χριστου εν εμοι οτι η καυχησισ αυτη ου φραγησεται εισ εμε εν τοισ κλιμασιν τησ αχαιασ
10As the truth of Christ is in me, no one will stop me from this boasting in the regions of Achaia.
11δια τι οτι ουκ αγαπω υμασ ο θεοσ οιδεν
11Why? Because I don’t love you? God knows.
12ο δε ποιω και ποιησω ινα εκκοψω την αφορμην των θελοντων αφορμην ινα εν ω καυχωνται ευρεθωσιν καθωσ και ημεισ
12But what I do, that I will continue to do, that I may cut off opportunity from those who desire an opportunity, that in which they boast, they may be recognized just like us.
13οι γαρ τοιουτοι ψευδαποστολοι εργαται δολιοι μετασχηματιζομενοι εισ αποστολουσ χριστου
13For such men are false apostles, deceitful workers, masquerading as Christ’s apostles.
14και ου θαυμαστον αυτοσ γαρ ο σατανασ μετασχηματιζεται εισ αγγελον φωτοσ
14And no wonder, for even Satan masquerades as an angel of light.
15ου μεγα ουν ει και οι διακονοι αυτου μετασχηματιζονται ωσ διακονοι δικαιοσυνησ ων το τελοσ εσται κατα τα εργα αυτων
15It is no great thing therefore if his servants also masquerade as servants of righteousness, whose end will be according to their works.
16παλιν λεγω μη τισ με δοξη αφρονα ειναι ει δε μηγε καν ωσ αφρονα δεξασθε με ινα καγω μικρον τι καυχησωμαι
16I say again, let no one think me foolish. But if so, yet receive me as foolish, that I also may boast a little.
17ο λαλω ου λαλω κατα κυριον αλλ ωσ εν αφροσυνη εν ταυτη τη υποστασει τησ καυχησεωσ
17That which I speak, I don’t speak according to the Lord, but as in foolishness, in this confidence of boasting.
18επει πολλοι καυχωνται κατα την σαρκα καγω καυχησομαι
18Seeing that many boast after the flesh, I will also boast.
19ηδεωσ γαρ ανεχεσθε των αφρονων φρονιμοι οντεσ
19For you bear with the foolish gladly, being wise.
20ανεχεσθε γαρ ει τισ υμασ καταδουλοι ει τισ κατεσθιει ει τισ λαμβανει ει τισ επαιρεται ει τισ υμασ εισ προσωπον δερει
20For you bear with a man if he brings you into bondage, if he devours you, if he takes you captive, if he exalts himself, or if he strikes you on the face.
21κατα ατιμιαν λεγω ωσ οτι ημεισ ησθενησαμεν εν ω δ αν τισ τολμα εν αφροσυνη λεγω τολμω καγω
21To my shame, I speak as though we had been weak. Yet in whatever way anyone is bold (I speak in foolishness), I am bold also.
22εβραιοι εισιν καγω ισραηλιται εισιν καγω σπερμα αβρααμ εισιν καγω
22Are they Hebrews? So am I. Are they Israelites? So am I. Are they the offspring of Abraham? So am I.
23διακονοι χριστου εισιν παραφρονων λαλω υπερ εγω εν κοποισ περισσοτερωσ εν πληγαισ υπερβαλλοντωσ εν φυλακαισ περισσοτερωσ εν θανατοισ πολλακισ
23Are they servants of Christ? (I speak as one beside himself.) I am more so: in labors more abundantly, in prisons more abundantly, in stripes above measure, and in deaths often.
24υπο ιουδαιων πεντακισ τεσσαρακοντα παρα μιαν ελαβον
24Five times I received forty stripes minus one from the Jews.
25τρισ εραβδισθην απαξ ελιθασθην τρισ εναυαγησα νυχθημερον εν τω βυθω πεποιηκα
25Three times I was beaten with rods. Once I was stoned. Three times I suffered shipwreck. I have been a night and a day in the deep.
26οδοιποριαισ πολλακισ κινδυνοισ ποταμων κινδυνοισ ληστων κινδυνοισ εκ γενουσ κινδυνοισ εξ εθνων κινδυνοισ εν πολει κινδυνοισ εν ερημια κινδυνοισ εν θαλασση κινδυνοισ εν ψευδαδελφοισ
26I have been in travels often, perils of rivers, perils of robbers, perils from my countrymen, perils from the Gentiles, perils in the city, perils in the wilderness, perils in the sea, perils among false brothers;
27εν κοπω και μοχθω εν αγρυπνιαισ πολλακισ εν λιμω και διψει εν νηστειαισ πολλακισ εν ψυχει και γυμνοτητι
27in labor and travail, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, and in cold and nakedness.
28χωρισ των παρεκτοσ η επισυστασισ μου η καθ ημεραν η μεριμνα πασων των εκκλησιων
28Besides those things that are outside, there is that which presses on me daily: anxiety for all the assemblies.
29τισ ασθενει και ουκ ασθενω τισ σκανδαλιζεται και ουκ εγω πυρουμαι
29Who is weak, and I am not weak? Who is caused to stumble, and I don’t burn with indignation?
30ει καυχασθαι δει τα τησ ασθενειασ μου καυχησομαι
30If I must boast, I will boast of the things that concern my weakness.
31ο θεοσ και πατηρ του κυριου ιησου χριστου οιδεν ο ων ευλογητοσ εισ τουσ αιωνασ οτι ου ψευδομαι
31The God and Father of the Lord Jesus Christ, he who is blessed forever more, knows that I don’t lie.
32εν δαμασκω ο εθναρχησ αρετα του βασιλεωσ εφρουρει την δαμασκηνων πολιν πιασαι με θελων
32In Damascus the governor under King Aretas guarded the Damascenes’ city, desiring to arrest me.
33και δια θυριδοσ εν σαργανη εχαλασθην δια του τειχουσ και εξεφυγον τασ χειρασ αυτου
33I was let down in a basket through a window by the wall, and escaped his hands.
