GNT

1 συνεργοῦντες δὲ καὶ παρακαλοῦμεν μὴ εἰς κενὸν τὴν χάριν τοῦ θεοῦ δέξασθαι ὑμᾶς _

2 λέγει γάρ, καιρῶ δεκτῶ ἐπήκουσά σου καὶ ἐν ἡμέρᾳ σωτηρίας ἐβοήθησά σοι· ἰδοὺ νῦν καιρὸς εὐπρόσδεκτος, ἰδοὺ νῦν ἡμέρα σωτηρίας _

3 μηδεμίαν ἐν μηδενὶ διδόντες προσκοπήν, ἵνα μὴ μωμηθῇ ἡ διακονία,

4 ἀλλ᾽ ἐν παντὶ συνίσταντες ἑαυτοὺς ὡς θεοῦ διάκονοι, ἐν ὑπομονῇ πολλῇ, ἐν θλίψεσιν, ἐν ἀνάγκαις, ἐν στενοχωρίαις,

5 ἐν πληγαῖς, ἐν φυλακαῖς, ἐν ἀκαταστασίαις, ἐν κόποις, ἐν ἀγρυπνίαις, ἐν νηστείαις,

6 ἐν ἁγνότητι, ἐν γνώσει, ἐν μακροθυμίᾳ, ἐν χρηστότητι, ἐν πνεύματι ἁγίῳ, ἐν ἀγάπῃ ἀνυποκρίτῳ,

7 ἐν λόγῳ ἀληθείας, ἐν δυνάμει θεοῦ· διὰ τῶν ὅπλων τῆς δικαιοσύνης τῶν δεξιῶν καὶ ἀριστερῶν,

8 διὰ δόξης καὶ ἀτιμίας, διὰ δυσφημίας καὶ εὐφημίας· ὡς πλάνοι καὶ ἀληθεῖς,

9 ὡς ἀγνοούμενοι καὶ ἐπιγινωσκόμενοι, ὡς ἀποθνῄσκοντες καὶ ἰδοὺ ζῶμεν, ὡς παιδευόμενοι καὶ μὴ θανατούμενοι,

10 ὡς λυπούμενοι ἀεὶ δὲ χαίροντες, ὡς πτωχοὶ πολλοὺς δὲ πλουτίζοντες, ὡς μηδὲν ἔχοντες καὶ πάντα κατέχοντες.

11 τὸ στόμα ἡμῶν ἀνέῳγεν πρὸς ὑμᾶς, κορίνθιοι, ἡ καρδία ἡμῶν πεπλάτυνται·

12 οὐ στενοχωρεῖσθε ἐν ἡμῖν, στενοχωρεῖσθε δὲ ἐν τοῖς σπλάγχνοις ὑμῶν·

13 τὴν δὲ αὐτὴν ἀντιμισθίαν, ὡς τέκνοις λέγω, πλατύνθητε καὶ ὑμεῖς.

14 μὴ γίνεσθε ἑτεροζυγοῦντες ἀπίστοις· τίς γὰρ μετοχὴ δικαιοσύνῃ καὶ ἀνομίᾳ; ἢ τίς κοινωνία φωτὶ πρὸς σκότος;

15 τίς δὲ συμφώνησις χριστοῦ πρὸς βελιάρ, ἢ τίς μερὶς πιστῶ μετὰ ἀπίστου;

16 τίς δὲ συγκατάθεσις ναῶ θεοῦ μετὰ εἰδώλων; ἡμεῖς γὰρ ναὸς θεοῦ ἐσμεν ζῶντος· καθὼς εἶπεν ὁ θεὸς ὅτι ἐνοικήσω ἐν αὐτοῖς καὶ ἐμπεριπατήσω, καὶ ἔσομαι αὐτῶν θεός, καὶ αὐτοὶ ἔσονταί μου λαός.

17 διὸ ἐξέλθατε ἐκ μέσου αὐτῶν καὶ ἀφορίσθητε, λέγει κύριος, καὶ ἀκαθάρτου μὴ ἅπτεσθε· κἀγὼ εἰσδέξομαι ὑμᾶς,

18 καὶ ἔσομαι ὑμῖν εἰς πατέρα, καὶ ὑμεῖς ἔσεσθέ μοι εἰς υἱοὺς καὶ θυγατέρας, λέγει κύριος παντοκράτωρ.

1  We then,¹¹⁶¹ as workers together⁴⁹⁰³ with him, beseech³⁸⁷⁰ you also²⁵³² that ye⁵²⁰⁹ receive¹²⁰⁹ not³³⁶¹ the³⁵⁸⁸ grace⁵⁴⁸⁵ of God²³¹⁶ in¹⁵¹⁹ vain.²⁷⁵⁶

2  (For¹⁰⁶³ he saith,³⁰⁰⁴ I have heard¹⁸⁷³ thee⁴⁶⁷⁵ in a time²⁵⁴⁰ accepted,¹¹⁸⁴ and²⁵³² in¹⁷²² the day²²⁵⁰ of salvation⁴⁹⁹¹ have I succored⁹⁹⁷ thee:⁴⁶⁷¹ behold,²⁴⁰⁰ now³⁵⁶⁸ is the accepted²¹⁴⁴ time;²⁵⁴⁰ behold,²⁴⁰⁰ now³⁵⁶⁸ is the day²²⁵⁰ of salvation.)⁴⁹⁹¹

3  Giving¹³²⁵ no³³⁶⁷ offense⁴³⁴⁹ in¹⁷²² any thing,³³⁶⁷ that²⁴⁴³ the³⁵⁸⁸ ministry¹²⁴⁸ be not³³⁶¹ blamed:³⁴⁶⁹

4  But²³⁵ in¹⁷²² all³⁹⁵⁶ things approving⁴⁹²¹ ourselves¹⁴³⁸ as⁵⁶¹³ the ministers¹²⁴⁹ of God,²³¹⁶ in¹⁷²² much⁴¹⁸³ patience,⁵²⁸¹ in¹⁷²² afflictions,²³⁴⁷ in¹⁷²² necessities,³¹⁸ in¹⁷²² distresses,⁴⁷³⁰

5  In¹⁷²² stripes,⁴¹²⁷ in¹⁷²² imprisonments,⁵⁴³⁸ in¹⁷²² tumults,¹⁸¹ in¹⁷²² labors,²⁸⁷³ in¹⁷²² watchings,⁷⁰ in¹⁷²² fastings;³⁵²¹

6  By¹⁷²² pureness,⁵⁴ by¹⁷²² knowledge,¹¹⁰⁸ by¹⁷²² longsuffering,³¹¹⁵ by¹⁷²² kindness,⁵⁵⁴⁴ by¹⁷²² the Holy⁴⁰ Ghost,⁴¹⁵¹ by¹⁷²² love²⁶ unfeigned,⁵⁰⁵

7  By¹⁷²² the word³⁰⁵⁶ of truth,²²⁵ by¹⁷²² the power¹⁴¹¹ of God,²³¹⁶ by¹²²³ the³⁵⁸⁸ armor³⁶⁹⁶ of righteousness¹³⁴³ on the³⁵⁸⁸ right hand¹¹⁸⁸ and²⁵³² on the left,⁷¹⁰

8  By¹²²³ honor¹³⁹¹ and²⁵³² dishonor,⁸¹⁹ by¹²²³ evil report¹⁴²⁶ and²⁵³² good report:²¹⁶² as⁵⁶¹³ deceivers,⁴¹⁰⁸ and²⁵³² yet true;²²⁷

9  As⁵⁶¹³ unknown,⁵⁰ and²⁵³² yet well known;¹⁹²¹ as⁵⁶¹³ dying,⁵⁹⁹ and,²⁵³² behold,²⁴⁰⁰ we live;²¹⁹⁸ as⁵⁶¹³ chastened,³⁸¹¹ and²⁵³² not³³⁶¹ killed;²²⁸⁹

10  As⁵⁶¹³ sorrowful,³⁰⁷⁶ yet¹¹⁶¹ always¹⁰⁴ rejoicing;⁵⁴⁶³ as⁵⁶¹³ poor,⁴⁴³⁴ yet¹¹⁶¹ making many rich;^{4148 4183} as⁵⁶¹³ having²¹⁹² nothing,³³⁶⁷ and²⁵³² yet possessing²⁷²² all things.³⁹⁵⁶

11  O ye Corinthians,²⁸⁸¹ our²²⁵⁷ mouth⁴⁷⁵⁰ is open⁴⁵⁵ unto⁴³¹⁴ you,⁵²⁰⁹ our²²⁵⁷ heart²⁵⁸⁸ is enlarged.⁴¹¹⁵

12  Ye are not³⁷⁵⁶ straitened⁴⁷²⁹ in¹⁷²² us,²²⁵⁴ but¹¹⁶¹ ye are straitened⁴⁷²⁹ in¹⁷²² your own⁵²¹⁶ bowels.⁴⁶⁹⁸

13  Now¹¹⁶¹ for a recompense⁴⁸⁹ in the³⁵⁸⁸ same, I⁸⁴⁶ (speak³⁰⁰⁴ as⁵⁶¹³ unto my children,)⁵⁰⁴³ be ye⁵²¹⁰ also²⁵³² enlarged.⁴¹¹⁵

14  Be¹⁰⁹⁶ ye not³³⁶¹ unequally yoked together²⁰⁸⁶ with unbelievers:⁵⁷¹ for¹⁰⁶³ what⁵¹⁰¹ fellowship³³⁵² hath righteousness¹³⁴³ with²⁵³² unrighteousness?⁴⁵⁸ and¹¹⁶¹ what⁵¹⁰¹ communion²⁸⁴² hath light⁵⁴⁵⁷ with⁴³¹⁴ darkness?⁴⁶⁵⁵

15  And¹¹⁶¹ what⁵¹⁰¹ concord⁴⁸⁵⁷ hath Christ⁵⁵⁴⁷ with⁴³¹⁴ Belial?⁹⁵⁵ or²²²⁸ what part³³¹⁰ hath he that believeth⁴¹⁰³ with³³²⁶ an infidel?⁵⁷¹

16  And¹¹⁶¹ what⁵¹⁰¹ agreement⁴⁷⁸³ hath the temple³⁴⁸⁵ of God²³¹⁶ with³³²⁶ idols?¹⁴⁹⁷ for¹⁰⁶³ ye⁵²¹⁰ are²⁰⁷⁵ the temple³⁴⁸⁵ of the living²¹⁹⁸ God;²³¹⁶ as²⁵³¹ God²³¹⁶ hath said,²⁰³⁶ I will dwell¹⁷⁷⁴ in¹⁷²² them,⁸⁴⁶ and²⁵³² walk in¹⁷⁰⁴ them; and²⁵³² I will be²⁰⁷¹ their⁸⁴⁶ God,²³¹⁶ and²⁵³² they⁸⁴⁶ shall be²⁰⁷¹ my³⁴²⁷ people.²⁹⁹²

17  Wherefore¹³⁵² come out¹⁸³¹ from¹⁵³⁷ among³³¹⁹ them,⁸⁴⁶ and²⁵³² be ye separate,⁸⁷³ saith³⁰⁰⁴ the Lord,²⁹⁶² and²⁵³² touch⁶⁸⁰ not³³⁶¹ the unclean¹⁶⁹ thing; and I²⁵⁰⁴ will receive¹⁵²³ you.⁵²⁰⁹

18  And²⁵³² will be²⁰⁷¹ a¹⁵¹⁹ Father³⁹⁶² unto you,⁵²¹³ and²⁵³² ye⁵²¹⁰ shall be^{2071 1519} my³⁴²⁷ sons⁵²⁰⁷ and²⁵³² daughters,²³⁶⁴ saith³⁰⁰⁴ the Lord²⁹⁶² Almighty.³⁸⁴¹

Vul

1 Adjuvantes autem exhortamur ne in vacuum gratiam Dei recipiatis.

2 Ait enim: Tempore accepto exaudivi te, et in die salutis adjuvi te. Ecce nunc tempus acceptabile, ecce nunc dies salutis.

3 Nemini dantes ullam offensionem, ut non vituperetur ministerium nostrum:

4 sed in omnibus exhibeamus nosmetipsos sicut Dei ministros in multa patientia, in tribulationibus, in necessitatibus, in angustiis,

5 in plagis, in carceribus, in seditionibus, in laboribus, in vigiliis, in jejuniis,

6 in castitate, in scientia, in longanimitate, in suavitate, in Spiritu Sancto, in caritate non ficta,

7 in verbo veritatis, in virtute Dei, per arma justitiæ a dextris et a sinistris,

8 per gloriam, et ignobilitatem, per infamiam, et bonam famam: ut seductores, et veraces, sicut qui ignoti, et cogniti:

9 quasi morientes, et ecce vivimus: ut castigati, et non mortificati:

10 quasi tristes, semper autem gaudentes: sicut egentes, multos autem locupletantes: tamquam nihil habentes, et omnia possidentes.

11 Os nostrum patet ad vos, o Corinthii; cor nostrum dilatatum est.

12 Non angustiamini in nobis: angustiamini autem in visceribus vestris:

13 eamdem autem habentes remunerationem, tamquam filiis dico, dilatamini et vos.

14 Nolite jugum ducere cum infidelibus. Quæ enim participatio justitiæ cum iniquitate? aut quæ societas luci ad tenebras?

15 quæ autem conventio Christi ad Belial? aut quæ pars fideli cum infideli?

16 qui autem consensus templo Dei cum idolis? vos enim estis templum Dei vivi, sicut dicit Deus: [Quoniam inhabitabo in illis, et inambulabo inter eos,
et ero illorum Deus, et ipsi erunt mihi populus.

17 Propter quod exite de medio eorum,
et separamini, dicit Dominus,
et immundum ne tetigeritis:

18 et ego recipiam vos:
et ero vobis in patrem,
et vos eritis mihi in filios et filias,
dicit Dominus omnipotens.]
