2 Corinthians 13

1 This is the third time I am coming to you. “At the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established.”

Third this [time] I am coming to you. In [the] mouth of two witnesses or three will be established every declaration.

2 I have warned previously, and I warn again, as when I was present the second time, so now, being absent, I write to those who have sinned before now and to all the rest that if I come again, I will not spare,

I have warned and I warn, as being present the second time and being absent now (I am writing *K) to those having sinned before and to the rest all, that if I may come to the [same] again not I will spare [anyone].

3 seeing that you seek a proof of Christ who speaks in me who is not weak, but is powerful in you.

since a proof you seek in me myself speaking of Christ who toward you not is weak but He is powerful among you.

4 For he was crucified through weakness, yet he lives through the power of God. For we also are weak in him, but we will live with him through the power of God toward you.

And for (if *K) He was crucified in weakness yet He lives by power God’s; Also for we ourselves are weak in Him but (we will live *N+kO) with Him by power God’s toward you.

5 Examine your own selves, whether you are in the faith. Test your own selves. Or don’t you know about your own selves, that Jesus Christ is in you?—unless indeed you are disqualified.

Yourselves do examine whether you are in the faith, yourselves do test; Or surely you do recognize yourselves that Jesus Christ [is] in you (is? *k) except surely even failing you are!

6 But I hope that you will know that we aren’t disqualified.

I hope now that you will know that we ourselves not are unapproved.

7 Now I pray to God that you do no evil; not that we may appear approved, but that you may do that which is honorable, though we may seem to have failed.

(We pray *N+KO) now to God not to do you wrong nothing, not that we ourselves approved may appear, but that you yourselves what [is] right may do, we ourselves though as unapproved may appear.

8 For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth.

Nothing for have we power any against the truth but for the truth.

9 For we rejoice when we are weak and you are strong. We also pray for this: your becoming perfect.

We rejoice for when we ourselves may be weak, you yourselves however strong may be; But this (now *k) also We pray for the of you perfection.

10 For this cause I write these things while absent, that I may not deal sharply when present, according to the authority which the Lord gave me for building up and not for tearing down.

Because of therefore these things being absent I write, so that being present not with severity I may treat [you] according to the authority that the Lord has given me for building up and not for tearing down.

11 Finally, brothers, rejoice! Be perfected. Be comforted. Be of the same mind. Live in peace, and the God of love and peace will be with you.

Finally, brothers, do rejoice do be perfected, do be encouraged, the same do think, do be at peace, And the God of love and peace will be with you.

12 Greet one another with a holy kiss.

do greet one another with a holy kiss.

13 All the saints greet you.

Greet you the saints all.

14 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, God’s love, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all. Amen.

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit [be] with all of you (Amen *KO) (to Corinthians second it was written from Philippi of Macedonia through of Titus and Luke. *K)
