The Latin Vulgate VUL
New King James Version NKJV
1 adiuvantes autem et exhortamur ne in vacuum gratiam Dei recipiatis
1
We then, as workers together with Him also plead with you not to receive the grace of God in vain.
2 ait enim tempore accepto exaudivi te et in die salutis adiuvavi te ecce nunc tempus acceptabile ecce nunc dies salutis
2
For He says: "In an acceptable time I have heard you, And in the day of salvation I have helped you." Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.
3 nemini dantes ullam offensionem ut non vituperetur ministerium
3
We give no offense in anything, that our ministry may not be blamed.
4 sed in omnibus exhibeamus nosmet ipsos sicut Dei ministros in multa patientia in tribulationibus in necessitatibus in angustiis
4
But in all things we commend ourselves as ministers of God: in much patience, in tribulations, in needs, in distresses,
5 in plagis in carceribus in seditionibus in laboribus in vigiliis in ieiuniis
5
in stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labors, in sleeplessness, in fastings;
6 in castitate in scientia in longanimitate in suavitate in Spiritu Sancto in caritate non ficta
6
by purity, by knowledge, by longsuffering, by kindness, by the Holy Spirit, by sincere love,
7 in verbo veritatis in virtute Dei per arma iustitiae a dextris et sinistris
7
by the word of truth, by the power of God, by the armor of righteousness on the right hand and on the left,
8 per gloriam et ignobilitatem per infamiam et bonam famam ut seductores et veraces sicut qui ignoti et cogniti
8
by honor and dishonor, by evil report and good report; as deceivers, and yet true;
9 quasi morientes et ecce vivimus ut castigati et non mortificati
9
as unknown, and yet well known; as dying, and behold we live; as chastened, and yet not killed;
10 quasi tristes semper autem gaudentes sicut egentes multos autem locupletantes tamquam nihil habentes et omnia possidentes
10
as sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and yet possessing all things.
11 os nostrum patet ad vos o Corinthii cor nostrum dilatatum est
11
O Corinthians! We have spoken openly to you, our heart is wide open.
12 non angustiamini in nobis angustiamini autem in visceribus vestris
12
You are not restricted by us, but you are restricted by your own affections.
13 eandem autem habentes remunerationem tamquam filiis dico dilatamini et vos
13
Now in return for the same (I speak as to children), you also be open.
14 nolite iugum ducere cum infidelibus quae enim participatio iustitiae cum iniquitate aut quae societas luci ad tenebras
14
Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness?
15 quae autem conventio Christi ad Belial aut quae pars fideli cum infidele
15
And what accord has Christ with Belial? Or what part has a believer with an unbeliever?
16 qui autem consensus templo Dei cum idolis vos enim estis templum Dei vivi sicut dicit Deus quoniam inhabitabo in illis et inambulabo et ero illorum Deus et ipsi erunt mihi populus
16
And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God. As God has said: "I will dwell in them And walk among them. I will be their God, And they shall be My people."
17 propter quod exite de medio eorum et separamini dicit Dominus et inmundum ne tetigeritis
17
Therefore "Come out from among them And be separate, says the Lord. Do not touch what is unclean, And I will receive you."
18 et ego recipiam vos et ero vobis in patrem et vos eritis mihi in filios et filias dicit Dominus omnipotens
18
"I will be a Father to you, And you shall be My sons and daughters, Says the Lord Almighty."
