新约--哥林多后书(2 Corinthians)--第 2 章
2:1 我自己定了主意，再到你们那里去，必须大家没有忧愁。
But I determined this with myself, that I would not come again to you in heaviness.
2:2 倘若我叫你们忧愁，除了我叫那忧愁的人以外，谁能叫我快乐呢。
For if I make you sorry, who is he then that maketh me glad, but the same which is made sorry by me?
2:3 我曾把这事写给你们，恐怕我到的时候，应该叫我快乐的那些人，反倒叫我忧愁。我也深信，你们众人都以我的快乐为自己的快乐。
And I wrote this same unto you, lest, when I came, I should have sorrow from them of whom I ought to rejoice; having confidence in you all, that my joy is the joy of you all.
2:4 我先前心里难过痛苦，多多的流泪，写信给你们。不是叫你们忧愁，乃是叫你们知道我格外的疼爱你们。
For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote unto you with many tears; not that ye should be grieved, but that ye might know the love which I have more abundantly unto you.
2:5 若有叫人忧愁的，他不但叫我忧愁，也是叫你们众人有几分忧愁，我说几分，恐怕说得太重。
But if any have caused grief, he hath not grieved me, but in part: that I may not overcharge you all.
2:6 这样的人，受了众人的责罚，也就够了。
Sufficient to such a man is this punishment, which was inflicted of many.
2:7 倒不如赦免他，安慰他，免得他忧愁太过，甚至沉沦了。
So that contrariwise ye ought rather to forgive him, and comfort him, lest perhaps such a one should be swallowed up with overmuch sorrow.
2:8 所以我劝你们，要向他显出坚定不移的爱心来。
Wherefore I beseech you that ye would confirm your love toward him.
2:9 为此我先前也写信给你们，要试验你们，看你们凡事顺从不顺从。
For to this end also did I write, that I might know the proof of you, whether ye be obedient in all things.
2:10 你们赦免谁，我也赦免谁，我若有所赦免的，是在基督面前为你们赦免的。
To whom ye forgive any thing, I forgive also: for if I forgave any thing, to whom I forgave it, for your sakes forgave I it in the person of Christ;
2:11 免得撒但趁着机会胜过我们。因我们并非不晓得他的诡计。
Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices.
2:12 我从前为基督的福音到了特罗亚，主也给我开了门。
Furthermore, when I came to Troas to preach Christ's gospel, and a door was opened unto me of the Lord,
2:13 那时因为没有遇见兄弟提多，我心里不安，便辞别那里的人往马其顿去了。
I had no rest in my spirit, because I found not Titus my brother: but taking my leave of them, I went from thence into Macedonia.
2:14 感谢神，常帅领我们在基督里夸胜，并藉着我们在各处显扬那因认识基督而有的香气。
Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place.
2:15 因为我们在婉面前，无论在得救的人身上，或灭亡的人身上，都有基督馨香之气。
For we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ, in them that are saved, and in them that perish:
2:16 在这等人，就作了死的香气叫他死。在那等人，就作了活的香气叫他活。这事谁能当得起呢。
To the one we are the savour of death unto death; and to the other the savour of life unto life. And who is sufficient for these things?
2:17 我们不像那许多人，为利混乱神的道。乃是由于诚实，由于神，在神面前凭着基督讲道。
For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ.
