哥林多後書-2 Corinthians 第 13 章

13:1這是我第三次要到你們那裡去,憑兩三個見證人的口,句句都要定准。
This third time I am coming to you; at the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established.
13:2我從前說過,現今不在的時候,事先又對那些從前犯了罪的,和所有其餘的人說,正如我第二次同在的時候所說的;我若再來,必不寬容,
I have previously said and I say beforehand, when I was present the second time and being absent now, to those who have sinned before and to all the rest, that if I come again, I will not spare,
13:3因為你們尋求基督在我裡面說話的憑證。基督向著你們不是軟弱的,在你們裡面乃是有大能的。
Since you seek a proof of the Christ who is speaking in me, who is not weak unto you but is powerful in you.
13:4祂固然由於軟弱被釘十字架,卻由於神的大能仍然活著。我們在祂裡面也是軟弱,但由於神向著你們的大能,必與祂同活。
For indeed He was crucified out of weakness, but He lives by the power of God. For indeed we are weak in Him, but we will live together with Him by the power of God directed toward you.
13:5你們要試驗自己是否在信仰中;你們要驗證自己。豈不知你們有耶穌基督在你們裡面麼?除非你們是經不起試驗的。
Test yourselves whether you are in the faith; prove yourselves. Or do you not realize about yourselves that Jesus Christ is in you, unless you are disapproved?
13:6我卻盼望你們曉得,我們不是經不起試驗的。
But I hope that you will know that we are not disapproved.
13:7我們求神,叫你們一件惡事都不作。這不是要顯明我們是經得起試驗的,乃是要你們行善,讓我們就像是經不起試驗的吧!
Now we pray to God that you do nothing wrong, not that we may appear approved, but that you yourselves may do what is good and we may be as if disapproved.
13:8因為我們不能作任何事抵擋真理,只能擁護真理。
For we are not able to do anything against the truth but rather for the truth.
13:9無論何時我們軟弱,你們有能力,我們就喜樂了;我們還祈求一件事,就是你們被成全。
For we rejoice whenever we are weak and you are powerful; this also we pray for, your perfecting.
13:10所以我不在的時候,寫這些事,好叫我同在的時候,不必照著主所賜給我的權柄,嚴厲的待你們;這權柄是為著建造人,並不是為著拆毀人。
Therefore I write these things while being absent in order that when present I would not have to use severity, according to the authority which the Lord has given me for building up and not for overthrowing.
13:11末了,弟兄們,要喜樂,要被成全,要受安慰,要思念相同的事,要和睦,如此那愛與和平的神,必與你們同在。
Finally, brothers, rejoice, be perfected, be comforted, think the same thing, be at peace; and the God of love and peace will be with you.
13:12你們要用聖別的親嘴彼此問安。
Greet one another with a holy kiss.
13:13眾聖徒都問你們安。
All the saints greet you.
13:14願主耶穌基督的恩,神的愛,聖靈的交通,與你們眾人同在。
The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.
