2 Corinthians 1

New Century Version NCV

1 From Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus. I am an apostle because that is what God wanted. Also from Timothy our brother in Christ. To the church of God in Corinth, and to all of God's people everywhere in Southern Greece:

2 Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. God is the Father who is full of mercy and all comfort.

4 He comforts us every time we have trouble, so when others have trouble, we can comfort them with the same comfort God gives us.

5 We share in the many sufferings of Christ. In the same way, much comfort comes to us through Christ.

6 If we have troubles, it is for your comfort and salvation, and if we have comfort, you also have comfort. This helps you to accept patiently the same sufferings we have.

7 Our hope for you is strong, knowing that you share in our sufferings and also in the comfort we receive.

8 Brothers and sisters, we want you to know about the trouble we suffered in Asia. We had great burdens there that were beyond our own strength. We even gave up hope of living.

9 Truly, in our own hearts we believed we would die. But this happened so we would not trust in ourselves but in God, who raises people from the dead.

10 God saved us from these great dangers of death, and he will continue to save us. We have put our hope in him, and he will save us again.

11 And you can help us with your prayers. Then many people will give thanks for us -- that God blessed us because of their many prayers.

12 This is what we are proud of, and I can say it with a clear conscience: In everything we have done in the world, and especially with you, we have had an honest and sincere heart from God. We did this by God's grace, not by the kind of wisdom the world has.

13

14 We write to you only what you can read and understand. And I hope that as you have understood some things about us, you may come to know everything about us. Then you can be proud of us, as we will be proud of you on the day our Lord Jesus Christ comes again.

15 I was so sure of all this that I made plans to visit you first so you could be blessed twice.

16 I planned to visit you on my way to Macedonia and again on my way back. I wanted to get help from you for my trip to Judea.

17 Do you think that I made these plans without really meaning it? Or maybe you think I make plans as the world does, so that I say yes, yes and at the same time no, no.

18 But if you can believe God, you can believe that what we tell you is never both yes and no.

19 The Son of God, Jesus Christ, that Silas and Timothy and I preached to you, was not yes and no. In Christ it has always been yes.

20 The yes to all of God's promises is in Christ, and through Christ we say yes to the glory of God.

21 Remember, God is the One who makes you and us strong in Christ. God made us his chosen people.

22 He put his mark on us to show that we are his, and he put his Spirit in our hearts to be a guarantee for all he has promised.

23 I tell you this, and I ask God to be my witness that this is true: The reason I did not come back to Corinth was to keep you from being punished or hurt.

24 We are not trying to control your faith. You are strong in faith. But we are workers with you for your own joy.

The Latin Vulgate VUL

1 Paulus apostolus Iesu Christi per voluntatem Dei et Timotheus frater ecclesiae Dei quae est Corinthi cum sanctis omnibus qui sunt in universa Achaia

2 gratia vobis et pax a Deo Patre nostro et Domino Iesu Christo

3 benedictus Deus et Pater Domini nostri Iesu Christi Pater misericordiarum et Deus totius consolationis

4 qui consolatur nos in omni tribulatione nostra ut possimus et ipsi consolari eos qui in omni pressura sunt per exhortationem qua exhortamur et ipsi a Deo

5 quoniam sicut abundant passiones Christi in nobis ita et per Christum abundat consolatio nostra

6 sive autem tribulamur pro vestra exhortatione et salute sive exhortamur pro vestra exhortatione quae operatur in tolerantia earundem passionum quas et nos patimur

7 et spes nostra firma pro vobis scientes quoniam sicut socii passionum estis sic eritis et consolationis

8 non enim volumus ignorare vos fratres de tribulatione nostra quae facta est in Asia quoniam supra modum gravati sumus supra virtutem ita ut taederet nos etiam vivere

9 sed ipsi in nobis ipsis responsum mortis habuimus ut non simus fidentes in nobis sed in Deo qui suscitat mortuos

10 qui de tantis periculis eripuit nos et eruet in quem speramus quoniam et adhuc eripiet

11 adiuvantibus et vobis in oratione pro nobis ut ex multis personis eius quae in nobis est donationis per multos gratiae agantur pro nobis

12 nam gloria nostra haec est testimonium conscientiae nostrae quod in simplicitate et sinceritate Dei et non in sapientia carnali sed in gratia Dei conversati sumus in mundo abundantius autem ad vos

13 non enim alia scribimus vobis quam quae legistis et cognoscitis spero autem quod usque in finem cognoscetis

14 sicut et cognovistis nos ex parte quia gloria vestra sumus sicut et vos nostra in die Domini nostri Iesu Christi

15 et hac confidentia volui prius venire ad vos ut secundam gratiam haberetis

16 et per vos transire in Macedoniam et iterum a Macedonia venire ad vos et a vobis deduci in Iudaeam

17 cum hoc ergo voluissem numquid levitate usus sum aut quae cogito secundum carnem cogito ut sit apud me est et non

18 fidelis autem Deus quia sermo noster qui fit apud vos non est in illo est et non

19 Dei enim Filius Iesus Christus qui in vobis per nos praedicatus est per me et Silvanum et Timotheum non fuit est et non sed est in illo fuit

20 quotquot enim promissiones Dei sunt in illo est ideo et per ipsum amen Deo ad gloriam nostram

21 qui autem confirmat nos vobiscum in Christum et qui unxit nos Deus

22 et qui signavit nos et dedit pignus Spiritus in cordibus nostris

23 ego autem testem Deum invoco in animam meam quod parcens vobis non veni ultra Corinthum

24 non quia dominamur fidei vestrae sed adiutores sumus gaudii vestri nam fide stetistis
