Reina-Valera 1909
1But I determined this for myself, that I would not come to you again in sorrow.
1ESTO pues determiné para conmigo, no venir otra vez á vosotros con tristeza.
2For if I make you grieve, then who will make me glad but he who is made to grieve by me?
2Porque si yo os contristo, ¿quién será luego el que me alegrará, sino aquel á quien yo contristare?
3And I wrote this very thing to you, so that when I came, I wouldn’t have sorrow from them of whom I ought to rejoice; having confidence in you all that my joy would be shared by all of you.
3Y esto mismo os escribí, porque cuando llegare no tenga tristeza sobre tristeza de los que me debiera gozar; confiando en vosotros todos que mi gozo es el de todos vosotros.
4For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote to you with many tears, not that you should be made to grieve, but that you might know the love that I have so abundantly for you.
4Porque por la mucha tribulación y angustia del corazón os escribí con muchas lágrimas; no para que fueseis contristados, mas para que supieseis cuánto más amor tengo para con vosotros.
5But if any has caused sorrow, he has caused sorrow not to me, but in part (that I not press too heavily) to you all.
5Que si alguno me contristó, no me contristó á mí, sino en parte, por no cargaros, á todos vosotros.
6This punishment which was inflicted by the many is sufficient for such a one;
6Bástale al tal esta reprensión hecha de muchos;
7so that, on the contrary, you should rather forgive him and comfort him, lest by any means such a one should be swallowed up with his excessive sorrow.
7Así que, al contrario, vosotros más bien lo perdonéis y consoléis, porque no sea el tal consumido de demasiada tristeza.
8Therefore I beg you to confirm your love toward him.
8Por lo cual os ruego que confirméis el amor para con él.
9For to this end I also wrote, that I might know the proof of you, whether you are obedient in all things.
9Porque también por este fin os escribí, para tener experiencia de vosotros si sois obedientes en todo.
10Now I also forgive whomever you forgive anything. For if indeed I have forgiven anything, I have forgiven that one for your sakes in the presence of Christ,
10Y al que vosotros perdonareis, yo también: porque también yo lo que he perdonado, si algo he perdonado, por vosotros lo he hecho en persona de Cristo;
11that no advantage may be gained over us by Satan, for we are not ignorant of his schemes.
11Porque no seamos engañados de Satanás: pues no ignoramos sus maquinaciones.
12Now when I came to Troas for the Good News of Christ, and when a door was opened to me in the Lord,
12Cuando vine á Troas para el evangelio de Cristo, aunque me fué abierta puerta en el Señor,
13I had no relief for my spirit, because I didn’t find Titus my brother, but taking my leave of them, I went out into Macedonia.
13No tuve reposo en mi espíritu, por no haber hallado á Tito mi hermano: así, despidiéndome de ellos, partí para Macedonia.
14Now thanks be to God who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and reveals through us the sweet aroma of his knowledge in every place.
14Mas á Dios gracias, el cual hace que siempre triunfemos en Cristo Jesús, y manifiesta el olor de su conocimiento por nosotros en todo lugar.
15For we are a sweet aroma of Christ to God in those who are being saved and in those who perish:
15Porque para Dios somos buen olor de Cristo en los que se salvan, y en los que se pierden:
16to the one a stench from death to death, to the other a sweet aroma from life to life. Who is sufficient for these things?
16A éstos ciertamente olor de muerte para muerte; y á aquéllos olor de vida para vida. Y para estas cosas ¿quién es suficiente?
17For we are not as so many, peddling the word of God. But as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God, we speak in Christ.
17Porque no somos como muchos, mercaderes falsos de la palabra de Dios: antes con sinceridad, como de Dios, delante de Dios, hablamos en Cristo.
