2 Corinthians 1 ~ 2

Settings

1:1Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God, and Timothy the brother, to the church of God which is in Corinth, with all the saints who are in the whole of Achaia: Compare
1:2Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. Compare
1:3Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassions and God of all comfort, Compare
1:4Who comforts us in all our affliction that we may be able to comfort those who are in every affliction through the comforting with which we ourselves are comforted by God. Compare
1:5For even as the sufferings of the Christ abound unto us, so through the Christ our comfort also abounds. Compare
1:6But whether we are afflicted, it is for your comforting and salvation; or whether we are comforted, it is for your comforting, which operates in the endurance of the same sufferings which we also suffer. Compare
1:7And our hope for you is firm, knowing that as you are partakers of the sufferings, so also you are of the comfort. Compare
1:8For we do not want you to be ignorant, brothers, of our affliction which befell us in Asia, that we were excessively burdened, beyond our power, so that we despaired even of living. Compare
1:9Indeed we ourselves had the response of death in ourselves, that we should not base our confidence on ourselves but on God, who raises the dead; Compare
1:10Who has delivered us out of so great a death, and will deliver us; in whom we have hoped that He will also yet deliver us, Compare
1:11If you also help in this by petition on our behalf, that for the gift to us through many, thanks may be given by many persons on our behalf. Compare
1:12For our boasting is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in singleness and sincerity of God, not in fleshly wisdom but in the grace of God, we have conducted ourselves in the world, and more abundantly toward you. Compare
1:13For no other things do we write to you than what you read or even know; and I hope that you will know unto the end, Compare
1:14Even as also you know us in part, that we are your boast, just as you also are ours in the day of our Lord Jesus. Compare
1:15And in this confidence I intended to come to you previously that you might have double grace, Compare
1:16And through you to pass through into Macedonia, and again from Macedonia to come to you and be sent forward by you into Judea. Compare
1:17This therefore intending, did I then use fickleness? Or the things which I purpose, do I purpose according to the flesh, so that with me there should be Yes, yes and No, no? Compare
1:18But as God is faithful, our word toward you is not yes and no. Compare
1:19For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you through us, through me and Silvanus and Timothy, did not become yes and no, but our word has become yes in Him. Compare
1:20For as many promises of God as there are, in Him is the Yes; therefore also through Him is the Amen to God, for glory through us to God. Compare
1:21But the One who firmly attaches us with you unto Christ and has anointed us is God, Compare
1:22He who has also sealed us and given the Spirit in our hearts as a pledge. Compare
1:23But I call on God as a witness against my soul that to spare you I have not yet come to Corinth. Compare
1:24Not that we lord it over your faith, but we are fellow workers with you for your joy; for by faith you stand. Compare
2:1But I determined this for myself, that I would not come again to you in sorrow. Compare
2:2For if I cause you sorrow, who then is the one who makes me glad, except the one who is made sorrowful by me? Compare
2:3And I wrote this very thing to you that when I come I would not have sorrow from those who ought to make me rejoice, having confidence in you all that my joy is the joy of you all. Compare
2:4For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote to you through many tears, not that you would be made sorrowful but that you would know the love which I have more abundantly toward you. Compare
2:5But if anyone has caused sorrow, he has not caused me to sorrow, but in part (lest I lay too heavy a burden) all of you. Compare
2:6Sufficient for such a one is this punishment by the majority, Compare
2:7So that on the contrary you should rather forgive and comfort him, lest perhaps such a one be swallowed up with excessive sorrow. Compare
2:8Therefore I exhort you to confirm your love toward him. Compare
2:9For to this end also I wrote, that I might know your approvedness, whether you are obedient in all things. Compare
2:10But whom you forgive anything, I also forgive; for also what I have forgiven, if I have forgiven anything, it is for your sake in the person of Christ; Compare
2:11That we may not be taken advantage of by Satan, for we are not ignorant of his schemes. Compare
