3 Blessed be YHWH, even the Father of our Master Yahushua the Messiah, the Father of mercies, and the Elohim of all comfort;

Blessed [be] God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all consolation.

4 Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of Elohim.

Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them who are in any trouble by the consolation with which we ourselves are comforted by God.

5 For as the sufferings of the Messiah abound in us, so our consolation also aboundeth by the Messiah.

For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also aboundeth by Christ.

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.

And whether we are 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 are comforted, [it is] for your consolation and salvation.

And our hope of you [is] steadfast, knowing, that as ye are partakers of the sufferings, so [shall ye be] also of the consolation.

10 Who delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver: in whom we trust that he will yet deliver us;

11 Ye also helping together by prayer for us, that for the gift bestowed upon us by the means of many persons thanks may be given by many on our behalf.

Ye also helping together by prayer for us, that for the gift [bestowed] upon us by the means of many persons, thanks may be given by many on our behalf.

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 manner of life in the world, and more abundantly toward you.

13 For we write none other things unto you, than what ye read or acknowledge; and I trust ye shall acknowledge even to the end;

For we write no other things to you, than what ye read or acknowledge; and I trust ye will acknowledge even to the end;

14 As also ye have acknowledged us in part, that we are your rejoicing, even as ye also are ours in the day of the Master Yahushua.

As also ye have acknowledged us in part, that we are your rejoicing, even as ye also [are] ours in the day of the Lord Jesus.

15 And in this confidence I was minded to come unto you before, that ye might have a second benefit;

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 yea yea, and nay nay?

When I therefore was thus minded, did I use levity? or the things that I purpose, do I purpose according to the flesh, that with me there should be yea, yea, and nay, nay?

18 But as YHWH is true, our word toward you was not yea and nay.

But [as] God [is] true, our word towards you was not yea and nay.

19 For the Son of YHWH, Yahushua the Messiah, who was preached among you by us, even by me and Silvanus and Timotheus, was not yea and nay, but in him was yea.

For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us, [even] by me, and Silvanus, and Timothy, was not yea and nay, but in him was yea.

20 For all the promises of YHWH in him are yea, and in him amein, unto the glory of YHWH by us.

For all the promises of God in him [are] yea, and in him Amen, to the glory of God by us.

21 Now he which stablisheth us with you in the Messiah, and hath anointed us, is YHWH;

Now he who establisheth us with you in Christ, and hath anointed us, [is] God;

22 Who hath also sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.

23 Moreover I call YHWH for a record upon my soul, that to spare you I came not as yet unto Corinth.

Moreover, I call God for a witness upon my soul, that to spare you I have not as yet come to Corinth.

24 Not for that we have dominion over your faith, but are helpers of your joy: for by faith ye stand.
