2 karinthinaḥ 5

1 aparam asmākam ētasmin pārthivē dūṣyarūpē vēśmani jīrṇē satīśvarēṇa nirmmitam akarakr̥tam asmākam anantakālasthāyi vēśmaikaṁ svargē vidyata iti vayaṁ jānīmaḥ| (aiōnios g166)

For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. (aiōnios g166)

2 yatō hētōrētasmin vēśmani tiṣṭhantō vayaṁ taṁ svargīyaṁ vāsaṁ paridhātum ākāṅkṣyamāṇā niḥśvasāmaḥ|

For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed on with our house which is from heaven:

3 tathāpīdānīmapi vayaṁ tēna na nagnāḥ kintu parihitavasanā manyāmahē|

If so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked.

4 ētasmin dūṣyē tiṣṭhanatō vayaṁ kliśyamānā niḥśvasāmaḥ, yatō vayaṁ vāsaṁ tyaktum icchāmastannahi kintu taṁ dvitīyaṁ vāsaṁ paridhātum icchāmaḥ, yatastathā kr̥tē jīvanēna martyaṁ grasiṣyatē|

For we that are in this tabernacle do groan, being burdened: not for that we would be unclothed, but clothed on, that mortality might be swallowed up of life.

5 ētadarthaṁ vayaṁ yēna sr̥ṣṭāḥ sa īśvara ēva sa cāsmabhyaṁ satyaṅkārasya paṇasvarūpam ātmānaṁ dattavān|

Now he that has worked us for the selfsame thing is God, who also has given to us the earnest of the Spirit.

6 ataēva vayaṁ sarvvadōtsukā bhavāmaḥ kiñca śarīrē yāvad asmābhi rnyuṣyatē tāvat prabhutō dūrē prōṣyata iti jānīmaḥ,

Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord:

7 yatō vayaṁ dr̥ṣṭimārgē na carāmaḥ kintu viśvāsamārgē|

(For we walk by faith, not by sight: )

8 aparañca śarīrād dūrē pravastuṁ prabhōḥ sannidhau nivastuñcākāṅkṣyamāṇā utsukā bhavāmaḥ|

We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.

9 tasmādēva kāraṇād vayaṁ tasya sannidhau nivasantastasmād dūrē pravasantō vā tasmai rōcituṁ yatāmahē|

Why we labor, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him.

10 yasmāt śarīrāvasthāyām ēkaikēna kr̥tānāṁ karmmaṇāṁ śubhāśubhaphalaprāptayē sarvvaismābhiḥ khrīṣṭasya vicārāsanasammukha upasthātavyaṁ|

For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he has done, whether it be good or bad.

11 ataēva prabhō rbhayānakatvaṁ vijñāya vayaṁ manujān anunayāmaḥ kiñcēśvarasya gōcarē saprakāśā bhavāmaḥ, yuṣmākaṁ saṁvēdagōcarē'pi saprakāśā bhavāma ityāśaṁsāmahē|

Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are made manifest to God; and I trust also are made manifest in your consciences.

12 anēna vayaṁ yuṣmākaṁ sannidhau punaḥ svān praśaṁsāma iti nahi kintu yē manō vinā mukhaiḥ ślāghantē tēbhyaḥ pratyuttaradānāya yūyaṁ yathāsmābhiḥ ślāghituṁ śaknutha tādr̥śam upāyaṁ yuṣmabhyaṁ vitarāmaḥ|

For we commend not ourselves again to you, but give you occasion to glory on our behalf, that you may have somewhat to answer them which glory in appearance, and not in heart.

13 yadi vayaṁ hatajñānā bhavāmastarhi tad īśvarārthakaṁ yadi ca sajñānā bhavāmastarhi tad yuṣmadarthakaṁ|

For whether we be beside ourselves, it is to God: or whether we be sober, it is for your cause.

14 vayaṁ khrīṣṭasya prēmnā samākr̥ṣyāmahē yataḥ sarvvēṣāṁ vinimayēna yadyēkō janō'mriyata tarhi tē sarvvē mr̥tā ityāsmābhi rbudhyatē|

For the love of Christ constrains us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead:

15 aparañca yē jīvanti tē yat svārthaṁ na jīvanti kintu tēṣāṁ kr̥tē yō janō mr̥taḥ punarutthāpitaśca tamuddiśya yat jīvanti tadarthamēva sa sarvvēṣāṁ kr̥tē mr̥tavān|

And that he died for all, that they which live should not from now on live to themselves, but to him which died for them, and rose again.

16 atō hētōritaḥ paraṁ kō'pyasmābhi rjātitō na pratijñātavyaḥ|yadyapi pūrvvaṁ khrīṣṭō jātitō'smābhiḥ pratijñātastathāpīdānīṁ jātitaḥ puna rna pratijñāyatē|

Why from now on know we no man after the flesh: yes, though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now from now on know we him no more.

17 kēnacit khrīṣṭa āśritē nūtanā sr̥ṣṭi rbhavati purātanāni lupyantē paśya nikhilāni navīnāni bhavanti|

Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.

18 sarvvañcaitad īśvarasya karmma yatō yīśukhrīṣṭēna sa ēvāsmān svēna sārddhaṁ saṁhitavān sandhānasambandhīyāṁ paricaryyām asmāsu samarpitavāṁśca|

And all things are of God, who has reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and has given to us the ministry of reconciliation;

19 yataḥ īśvaraḥ khrīṣṭam adhiṣṭhāya jagatō janānām āgāṁsi tēṣām r̥ṇamiva na gaṇayan svēna sārddhaṁ tān saṁhitavān sandhivārttām asmāsu samarpitavāṁśca|

To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, not imputing their trespasses to them; and has committed to us the word of reconciliation.

20 atō vayaṁ khrīṣṭasya vinimayēna dautyaṁ karmma sampādayāmahē, īśvaraścāsmābhi ryuṣmān yāyācyatē tataḥ khrīṣṭasya vinimayēna vayaṁ yuṣmān prārthayāmahē yūyamīśvarēṇa sandhatta|

Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be you reconciled to God.

21 yatō vayaṁ tēna yad īśvarīyapuṇyaṁ bhavāmastadarthaṁ pāpēna saha yasya jñātēyaṁ nāsīt sa ēva tēnāsmākaṁ vinimayēna pāpaḥ kr̥taḥ|

For he has made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.
