2 Corinthians 7
1 Having therefore these promises, beloved, let’s cleanse ourselves from all defilement of flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.
Imajoč torej te obljube, ljubljeni, očistimo se vsakega madeža mesa in duha dogotavljaje svetost v strahu Božjem.
2 Open your hearts to us. We wronged no one. We corrupted no one. We took advantage of no one.
Primite nas. Nikomur nismo krivice storili, nikogar nismo popačili, nikogar nismo ukanili.
3 I say this not to condemn you, for I have said before that you are in our hearts to die together and live together.
Ne govorim na obsodbo, kajti poprej sem rekel, da ste tako v srcih naših, da bi mi radi z vami vkup umrli in vkup živeli.
4 Great is my boldness of speech toward you. Great is my boasting on your behalf. I am filled with comfort. I overflow with joy in all our affliction.
Velika je moja zaupnost v govoru k vam, velika moja hvala za voljo vas; napolnjen sem tolažbe, preobilno imam radosti poleg vse stiske naše.
5 For even when we had come into Macedonia, our flesh had no relief, but we were afflicted on every side. Fightings were outside. Fear was inside.
Kajti kedar smo prišli v Macedonijo, nobenega počitka ni imelo meso naše, nego v vsem smo bili stiskani: zvunaj boji, znotraj strahi.
6 Nevertheless, he who comforts the lowly, God, comforted us by the coming of Titus,
Ali Bog, kteri tolaži ponižne, potolažil nas je s prihodom Titovim.
7 and not by his coming only, but also by the comfort with which he was comforted in you while he told us of your longing, your mourning, and your zeal for me, so that I rejoiced still more.
Toda ne samo s prihodom, nego tudi s tolažbo, s ktero se je on potolažil za vas, pripovedujoč nam vaše želenje, vaš jok, vašo vnetost za mene, tako da sem se bolje obveselil.
8 For though I grieved you with my letter, I do not regret it, though I did regret it. For I see that my letter made you grieve, though just for a while.
Ker če tudi sem vas razžalostil z listom, ni mi žal, če tudi mi je žal bilo, kajti vidim, da vas je oni list, če tudi za čas, razžalostil.
9 I now rejoice, not that you were grieved, but that you were grieved to repentance. For you were grieved in a godly way, that you might suffer loss by us in nothing.
Sedaj se radujem ne da ste se razžalostili, nego da ste se razžalostili na pokoro; kajti razžalostili ste se po Bogu, da bi v ničemer kvara ne imeli od nas.
10 For godly sorrow produces repentance leading to salvation, which brings no regret. But the sorrow of the world produces death.
Ker žalost po Bogu napravlja pokoro na zveličanje, za ktero se ni kesati, a žalost sveta napravlja smrt.
11 For behold, this same thing, that you were grieved in a godly way, what earnest care it worked in you. Yes, what defense, indignation, fear, longing, zeal, and vindication! In everything you demonstrated yourselves to be pure in the matter.
Kajti lej, to samo, da ste se po Bogu razžalostili, kakošno vam je napravilo marljivost, pa zagovarjanje, pa nevoljo, pa strah, pa želenje, pa vnetost, pa maščevanje! V vsem ste se pokazali, da ste čisti v delu.
12 So although I wrote to you, I wrote not for his cause that did the wrong, nor for his cause that suffered the wrong, but that your earnest care for us might be revealed in you in the sight of God.
Za kaj če tudi sem vam pisal, pisal sem ne za voljo tistega, kteri je krivico storil, tudi ne za voljo tistega, kteremu se je krivica storila, nego da se pokaže marljivost naša za vas med vami pričo Boga.
13 Therefore we have been comforted. In our comfort we rejoiced the more exceedingly for the joy of Titus, because his spirit has been refreshed by you all.
Za to smo potolaženi s tolažbo vašo; še obilneje pa smo se obradovali nad radostjo Titovo, ker ste spokojili duh njegov vsi vi.
14 For if in anything I have boasted to him on your behalf, I was not disappointed. But as we spoke all things to you in truth, so our glorying also which I made before Titus was found to be truth.
Kajti če sem se v čem njemu pohvalil z vami, nisem se osramotil; nego kakor smo vam vse v resnici govorili, tako je tudi pohvala naša k Titu resnična postala.
15 His affection is more abundantly toward you, while he remembers all of your obedience, how with fear and trembling you received him.
In srce njegovo vam je bolje vdano, kedar se spominja poslušnosti vseh vas, kako ste ga s strahom in trepetom sprejeli.
16 I rejoice that in everything I am confident concerning you.
Radujem se torej, da se v vsem smem oslanjati na vas.
