< 2 Corinthians 1 >

1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timothy our brother, to the church of God which is at Corinth, with all the saints which are in all Achaia:
παυλοσ αποστολοσ ιησου χριστου δια θεληματοσ θεου και τιμοθεοσ ο αδελφοσ τη εκκλησια του θεου τη ουση εν κορινθω συν τοισ αγιοισ πασιν τοισ ουσιν εν ολη τη αχαια
2 Grace be to you and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
χαρισ υμιν και ειρηνη απο θεου πατροσ ημων και κυριου ιησου χριστου
3 Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort;
ευλογητοσ ο θεοσ και πατηρ του κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου ο πατηρ των οικτιρμων και θεοσ πασησ παρακλησεωσ
4 Who comforts us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted of God.
ο παρακαλων ημασ επι παση τη θλιψει ημων εισ το δυνασθαι ημασ παρακαλειν τουσ εν παση θλιψει δια τησ παρακλησεωσ ησ παρακαλουμεθα αυτοι υπο του θεου
5 For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also abounds by Christ.
οτι καθωσ περισσευει τα παθηματα του χριστου εισ ημασ ουτωσ δια του χριστου περισσευει και η παρακλησισ ημων
6 And whether we be afflicted, it is for your consolation and salvation, which is effectual in the enduring of the same sufferings which we also suffer: or whether we be comforted, it is for your consolation and salvation.
ειτε δε θλιβομεθα υπερ τησ υμων παρακλησεωσ και σωτηριασ τησ ενεργουμενησ εν υπομονη των αυτων παθηματων ων και ημεισ πασχομεν και η ελπισ ημων βεβαια υπερ υμων ειτε παρακαλουμεθα υπερ τησ υμων παρακλησεωσ και σωτηριασ
7 And our hope of you is steadfast, knowing, that as you are partakers of the sufferings, so shall you be also of the consolation.
ειδοτεσ οτι ωσπερ κοινωνοι εστε των παθηματων ουτωσ και τησ παρακλησεωσ
8 For we would not, brothers, have you ignorant of our trouble which came to us in Asia, that we were pressed out of measure, above strength, so that we despaired even of life:
ου γαρ θελομεν υμασ αγνοειν αδελφοι υπερ τησ θλιψεωσ ημων τησ γενομενησ ημιν εν τη ασια οτι καθ υπερβολην εβαρηθημεν υπερ δυναμιν ωστε εξαπορηθηναι ημασ και του ζην
9 But we had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God which raises the dead:
αλλα αυτοι εν εαυτοισ το αποκριμα του θανατου εσχηκαμεν ινα μη πεποιθοτεσ ωμεν εφ εαυτοισ αλλ επι τω θεω τω εγειροντι τουσ νεκρουσ
10 Who delivered us from so great a death, and does deliver: in whom we trust that he will yet deliver us;
οσ εκ τηλικουτου θανατου ερρυσατο ημασ και ρυεται εισ ον ηλπικαμεν οτι και ετι ρυσεται
11 You also helping together by prayer for us, that for the gift bestowed on us by the means of many persons thanks may be given by many on our behalf.
συνυπουργουντων και υμων υπερ ημων τη δεησει ινα εκ πολλων προσωπων το εισ ημασ χαρισμα δια πολλων ευχαριστηθη υπερ υμων
12 For our rejoicing is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity and godly sincerity, not with fleshly wisdom, but by the grace of God, we have had our conversation in the world, and more abundantly to you-ward.
η γαρ καυχησισ ημων αυτη εστιν το μαρτυριον τησ συνειδησεωσ ημων οτι εν απλοτητι και ειλικρινεια θεου ουκ εν σοφια σαρκικη αλλ εν χαριτι θεου ανεστραφημεν εν τω κοσμω περισσοτερωσ δε προσ υμασ
13 For we write none other things to you, than what you read or acknowledge; and I trust you shall acknowledge even to the end;
ου γαρ αλλα γραφομεν υμιν αλλ η α αναγινωσκετε η και επιγινωσκετε ελπιζω δε οτι και εωσ τελουσ επιγνωσεσθε
14 As also you have acknowledged us in part, that we are your rejoicing, even as you also are ours in the day of the Lord Jesus.
καθωσ και επεγνωτε ημασ απο μερουσ οτι καυχημα υμων εσμεν καθαπερ και υμεισ ημων εν τη ημερα του κυριου ιησου
15 And in this confidence I was minded to come to you before, that you might have a second benefit;
και ταυτη τη πεποιθησει εβουλομην ελθειν προσ υμασ το προτερον ινα δευτεραν χαριν εχητε
16 And to pass by you into Macedonia, and to come again out of Macedonia to you, and of you to be brought on my way toward Judaea.
και δι υμων διελθειν εισ μακεδονιαν και παλιν απο μακεδονιασ ελθειν προσ υμασ και υφ υμων προπεμφθηναι εισ την ιουδαιαν
17 When I therefore was thus minded, did I use lightness? or the things that I purpose, do I purpose according to the flesh, that with me there should be yes yes, and no no?
τουτο ουν βουλευομενοσ μητι αρα τη ελαφρια εχρησαμην η α βουλευομαι κατα σαρκα βουλευομαι ινα η παρ εμοι το ναι ναι και το ου ου
18 But as God is true, our word toward you was not yes and no.
πιστοσ δε ο θεοσ οτι ο λογοσ ημων ο προσ υμασ ουκ εγενετο ναι και ου
19 For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us, even by me and Silvanus and Timotheus, was not yes and no, but in him was yes.
ο γαρ του θεου υιοσ ιησουσ χριστοσ ο εν υμιν δι ημων κηρυχθεισ δι εμου και σιλουανου και τιμοθεου ουκ εγενετο ναι και ου αλλα ναι εν αυτω γεγονεν
20 For all the promises of God in him are yes, and in him Amen, to the glory of God by us.
οσαι γαρ επαγγελιαι θεου εν αυτω το ναι και εν αυτω το αμην τω θεω προσ δοξαν δι ημων
21 Now he which establishes us with you in Christ, and has anointed us, is God;
ο δε βεβαιων ημασ συν υμιν εισ χριστον και χρισασ ημασ θεοσ
22 Who has also sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.
ο και σφραγισαμενοσ ημασ και δουσ τον αρραβωνα του πνευματοσ εν ταισ καρδιαισ ημων
23 Moreover I call God for a record on my soul, that to spare you I came not as yet to Corinth.
εγω δε μαρτυρα τον θεον επικαλουμαι επι την εμην ψυχην οτι φειδομενοσ υμων ουκετι ηλθον εισ κορινθον
24 Not for that we have dominion over your faith, but are helpers of your joy: for by faith you stand.
ουχ οτι κυριευομεν υμων τησ πιστεωσ αλλα συνεργοι εσμεν τησ χαρασ υμων τη γαρ πιστει εστηκατε
