Epistola II ad Corinthios

2 Corinthians

1

Notam autem facimus vobis, fratres, gratiam Dei, quæ data est in ecclesiis Macedoniæ:

Now we make known unto you, brethren, the grace of God that hath been given in the churches of Macedonia.

Nota autem fac ad vos, fratres, gratia de Deo, que da es in ecclesias de Macedonia:

2

quod in multo experimento tribulationis abundantia gaudii ipsorum fuit, et altissima paupertas eorum, abundavit in divitias simplicitatis eorum:

That in much experience of tribulation, they have had abundance of joy and their very deep poverty hath abounded unto the riches of their simplicity.

Quod in multo experimento de tribulatione abundantia de gaudio ipso es, et altissimo paupertate de illos, abunda in divitias de simplicitate de illos:

3

quia secundum virtutem testimonium illis reddo, et supra virtutem voluntarii fuerunt,

For according to their power (I bear them witness) and beyond their power, they were willing:

Quia secundo virtute testimonio ad illos redde, et supra virtute voluntario es,

4

cum multa exhortatione obsecrantes nos gratiam, et communicationem ministerii, quod fit in sanctos.

With much entreaty begging of us the grace and communication of the ministry that is done toward the saints.

Cum multo exhortatione obsecra nos gratia, et communicatione de ministerio, quod fi in sancto.

5

Et non sicut speravimus, sed semetipsos dederunt primum Domino, deinde nobis per voluntatem Dei,

And not as we hoped: but they gave their own selves, first to the Lord, then to us by the will of God;

Et non sicut spera, sed semetipta da primo ad Domino, deinde ad nos per voluntate de Deo,

6

ita ut rogaremus Titum, ut quemadmodum cœpit, ita et perficiat in vobis etiam gratiam istam.

Insomuch, that we desired Titus, that, as he had begun, so also he would finish among you this same grace.

Ita ut roga Tito, ut quemadmodum incipe, ita et perfice in vos etiam gratia isto.

7

Sed sicut in omnibus abundatis fide, et sermone, et scientia, et omni sollicitudine, insuper et caritate vestra in nos, ut et in hac gratia abundetis.

That as in all things you abound in faith and word and knowledge and all carefulness, moreover also in your charity towards us: so in this grace also you may abound.

Sed sicut in omni abunda fide, et sermone, et scientia, et omni sollicitudine, insuper et caritate vestro in nos, ut et in hoc gratia abunda.

8

Non quasi imperans dico: sed per aliorum sollicitudinem, etiam vestræ caritatis ingenium bonum comprobans.

I speak not as commanding: but by the carefulness of others, approving also the good disposition of your charity.

Non quasi impera dic: sed per alio sollicitudine, etiam vestro de caritate ingenio bono comproba.

9

Scitis enim gratiam Domini nostri Jesu Christi, quoniam propter vos egenus factus est, cum esset dives, ut illius inopia vos divites essetis.

For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that being rich he became poor for your sakes: that through his poverty you might be rich.

Sci nam gratia de Domino nostro de Iesu de Christo, quia propter vos egeno facto es, cum es divite, ut de illo inopia vos divite es.

10

Et consilium in hoc do: hoc enim vobis utile est, qui non solum facere, sed et velle cœpistis ab anno priore:

And herein I give my advice: for this is profitable for you who have begun not only to do but also to be willing, a year ago.

Et consilio in hoc da: hoc nam ad vos utile es, qui non solo facere, sed et velle incipe ab anno priore:

11

nunc vero et facto perficite: ut quemadmodum promptus est animus voluntatis, ita sit et perficiendi ex eo quod habetis.

Now therefore perform ye it also in deed: that as your mind is forward to be willing, so it may be also to perform, out of that which you have.

Nunc vero et fac perfice: ut quemadmodum prompto es animo de voluntate, ita es et perfice ex eo quod habe.

12

Si enim voluntas prompta est, secundum id quod habet, accepta est, non secundum id quod non habet.

For if the will be forward, it is accepted according to that which a man hath: not according to that which he hath not.

Si nam voluntate prompto es, secundo id quod habe, accipe es, non secundo id quod non habe.

13

Non enim ut aliis sit remissio, vobis autem tribulatio, sed ex æqualitate.

For I mean not that others should be eased and you burdened, but by an equality.

Non nam ut ad alio remissione es, ad vos autem tribulatione, sed ex aequalitate.

14

In præsenti tempore vestra abundantia illorum inopiam suppleat: ut et illorum abundantia vestræ inopiæ sit supplementum, ut fiat æqualitas, sicut scriptum est:

In this present time let your abundance supply their want, that their abundance also may supply your want: that there may be an equality,

In praesenti tempore vestro abundantia supple de illos inopia: ut et de illos abundantia vestro de inopia es supplemento, ut aequalitate que fi, sicut scripto es:

15

Qui multum, non abundavit: et qui modicum, non minoravit.

As it is written: He that had much had nothing over; and he that had little had no want.

Qui multo, non abunda: et qui modico, non minora.

16

Gratias autem Deo, qui dedit eamdem sollicitudinem pro vobis in corde Titi,

And thanks be to God, who hath given the same carefulness for you in the heart of Titus.

Gratias autem ad Deo, qui da idem sollicitudine pro vos in corde de Tito,

17

quoniam exhortationem quidem suscepit: sed cum sollicitior esset, sua voluntate profectus est ad vos.

For indeed he accepted the exhortation: but, being more careful, of his own will he went unto you.

Quia exhortatione quidem suscipe: sed cum sollicito es, suo voluntate proficiscor es ad vos.

18

Misimus etiam cum illo fratrem, cujus laus est in Evangelio per omnes ecclesias:

We have sent also with him the brother whose praise is in the gospel through all the churches.

Mitte etiam cum illo fratre, de que laude es in Evangelio per omni ecclesias:

19

non solum autem, sed et ordinatus est ab ecclesiis comes peregrinationis nostræ in hanc gratiam, quæ ministratur a nobis ad Domini gloriam, et destinatam voluntatem nostram:

And not that only: but he was also ordained by the churches companion of our travels, for this grace, which is administered by us, to the glory of the Lord and our determined will:

Non solo autem, sed et ordina es ab ecclesias comite de peregrinatione nostro in hoc gratia, que ministra ab nos ad Domino gloria, et destina voluntate nostro:

20

devitantes hoc, ne quis nos vituperet in hac plenitudine, quæ ministratur a nobis.

Avoiding this, lest any man should blame us in this abundance which is administered by us.

Devita hoc, ne qui vitupera nos in hoc plenitudine, que ministra ab nos.

21

Providemus enim bona non solum coram Deo, sed etiam coram hominibus.

For we forecast what may be good, not only before God but also before men.

Provide nam bono non solo coram Deo, sed etiam coram homines.

22

Misimus autem cum illis et fratrem nostrum, quem probavimus in multis sæpe sollicitum esse: nunc autem multo sollicitiorem, confidentia multa in vos,

And we have sent with them our brother also, whom we have often proved diligent in many things, but now much more diligent: with much confidence in you,

Mitte autem cum illos et fratre nostro, quem proba in multo saepe sollicito es: nunc autem multo sollicito, confidentia multo in vos,

23

sive pro Tito, qui est socius meus, et in vos adjutor, sive fratres nostri, Apostoli ecclesiarum, gloria Christi.

Either for Titus, who is my companion and fellow labourer towards you, or our brethren, the apostles of the churches, the glory of Christ.

Sive pro Tito, qui es socio meo, et in vos adiutore, sive fratres nostro, Apostolos de ecclesias, gloria de Christo.

24

Ostensionem ergo, quæ est caritatis vestræ, et nostræ gloriæ pro vobis, in illos ostendite in faciem ecclesiarum.

Wherefore shew ye to them, in the sight of the churches, the evidence of your charity and of our boasting on your behalf.

Ostensione ergo, que es de caritate vestro, et nostro de gloria pro vos, in illos ostende in facie de ecclesias.
