Greek New Testament: Byzantine Text (Robinson–Pierpont 2018)
King James Version with Apocrypha
1καυχασθαι δη ου συμφερει μοι ελευσομαι γαρ εισ οπτασιασ και αποκαλυψεισ κυριου
1It is not expedient for me doubtless to glory. I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord.
2οιδα ανθρωπον εν χριστω προ ετων δεκατεσσαρων ειτε εν σωματι ουκ οιδα ειτε εκτοσ του σωματοσ ουκ οιδα ο θεοσ οιδεν αρπαγεντα τον τοιουτον εωσ τριτου ουρανου
2I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;) such an one caught up to the third heaven.
3και οιδα τον τοιουτον ανθρωπον ειτε εν σωματι ειτε εκτοσ του σωματοσ ουκ οιδα ο θεοσ οιδεν
3And I knew such a man, (whether in the body, or out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;)
4οτι ηρπαγη εισ τον παραδεισον και ηκουσεν αρρητα ρηματα α ουκ εξον ανθρωπω λαλησαι
4How that he was caught up into paradise, and heard unspeakable words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter.
5υπερ του τοιουτου καυχησομαι υπερ δε εμαυτου ου καυχησομαι ει μη εν ταισ ασθενειαισ μου
5Of such an one will I glory: yet of myself I will not glory, but in mine infirmities.
6εαν γαρ θελησω καυχησασθαι ουκ εσομαι αφρων αληθειαν γαρ ερω φειδομαι δε μη τισ εισ εμε λογισηται υπερ ο βλεπει με η ακουει τι εξ εμου
6For though I would desire to glory, I shall not be a fool; for I will say the truth: but now I forbear, lest any man should think of me above that which he seeth me to be , or that he heareth of me.
7και τη υπερβολη των αποκαλυψεων ινα μη υπεραιρωμαι εδοθη μοι σκολοψ τη σαρκι αγγελοσ σαταν ινα με κολαφιζη ινα μη υπεραιρωμαι
7And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure.
8υπερ τουτου τρισ τον κυριον παρεκαλεσα ινα αποστη απ εμου
8For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me.
9και ειρηκεν μοι αρκει σοι η χαρισ μου η γαρ δυναμισ μου εν ασθενεια τελειουται ηδιστα ουν μαλλον καυχησομαι εν ταισ ασθενειαισ μου ινα επισκηνωση επ εμε η δυναμισ του χριστου
9And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
10διο ευδοκω εν ασθενειαισ εν υβρεσιν εν αναγκαισ εν διωγμοισ εν στενοχωριαισ υπερ χριστου οταν γαρ ασθενω τοτε δυνατοσ ειμι
10Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ’s sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.
11γεγονα αφρων καυχωμενοσ υμεισ με ηναγκασατε εγω γαρ ωφειλον υφ υμων συνιστασθαι ουδεν γαρ υστερησα των υπερ λιαν αποστολων ει και ουδεν ειμι
11I am become a fool in glorying; ye have compelled me: for I ought to have been commended of you: for in nothing am I behind the very chiefest apostles, though I be nothing.
12τα μεν σημεια του αποστολου κατειργασθη εν υμιν εν παση υπομονη εν σημειοισ και τερασιν και δυναμεσιν
12Truly the signs of an apostle were wrought among you in all patience, in signs, and wonders, and mighty deeds.
13τι γαρ εστιν ο ηττηθητε υπερ τασ λοιπασ εκκλησιασ ει μη οτι αυτοσ εγω ου κατεναρκησα υμων χαρισασθε μοι την αδικιαν ταυτην
13For what is it wherein ye were inferior to other churches, except it be that I myself was not burdensome to you? forgive me this wrong.
14ιδου τριτον ετοιμωσ εχω ελθειν προσ υμασ και ου καταναρκησω υμων ου γαρ ζητω τα υμων αλλα υμασ ου γαρ οφειλει τα τεκνα τοισ γονευσιν θησαυριζειν αλλ οι γονεισ τοισ τεκνοισ
14Behold, the third time I am ready to come to you; and I will not be burdensome to you: for I seek not yours, but you: for the children ought not to lay up for the parents, but the parents for the children.
15εγω δε ηδιστα δαπανησω και εκδαπανηθησομαι υπερ των ψυχων υμων ει και περισσοτερωσ υμασ αγαπων ηττον αγαπωμαι
15And I will very gladly spend and be spent for you; though the more abundantly I love you, the less I be loved.
16εστω δε εγω ου κατεβαρησα υμασ αλλ υπαρχων πανουργοσ δολω υμασ ελαβον
16But be it so, I did not burden you: nevertheless, being crafty, I caught you with guile.
17μη τινα ων απεσταλκα προσ υμασ δι αυτου επλεονεκτησα υμασ
17Did I make a gain of you by any of them whom I sent unto you?
18παρεκαλεσα τιτον και συναπεστειλα τον αδελφον μητι επλεονεκτησεν υμασ τιτοσ ου τω αυτω πνευματι περιεπατησαμεν ου τοισ αυτοισ ιχνεσιν
18I desired Titus, and with him I sent a brother. Did Titus make a gain of you? walked we not in the same spirit? walked we not in the same steps?
19παλιν δοκειτε οτι υμιν απολογουμεθα κατενωπιον του θεου εν χριστω λαλουμεν τα δε παντα αγαπητοι υπερ τησ υμων οικοδομησ
19Again, think ye that we excuse ourselves unto you? we speak before God in Christ: but we do all things, dearly beloved, for your edifying.
20φοβουμαι γαρ μηπωσ ελθων ουχ οιουσ θελω ευρω υμασ καγω ευρεθω υμιν οιον ου θελετε μηπωσ ερεισ ζηλοι θυμοι εριθειαι καταλαλιαι ψιθυρισμοι φυσιωσεισ ακαταστασιαι
20For I fear, lest, when I come, I shall not find you such as I would, and that I shall be found unto you such as ye would not: lest there be debates, envyings, wraths, strifes, backbitings, whisperings, swellings, tumults:
21μη παλιν ελθοντα με ταπεινωσει ο θεοσ μου προσ υμασ και πενθησω πολλουσ των προημαρτηκοτων και μη μετανοησαντων επι τη ακαθαρσια και πορνεια και ασελγεια η επραξαν
21And lest, when I come again, my God will humble me among you, and that I shall bewail many which have sinned already, and have not repented of the uncleanness and fornication and lasciviousness which they have committed.
