New Testament in Greek (UBS.Ed.26) |
|
|
| 12 1 | I must boast; there is nothing to be gained by it, but I will go on to visions and revelations of the Lord. | Visions and Revelations 2Cor.12.1-10 | Καυχᾶσθαι δεῖ· οὐ συμφέρον μέν, ἐλεύσομαι δὲ εἰς ὀπτασίας καὶ ἀποκαλύψεις κυρίου. |
|
| 2 | I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven - whether in the body or out of the body I do not know, God knows. | | οἶδα ἄνθρωπον ἐν Χριστῷ πρὸ ἐτῶν δεκατεσσάρων - εἰτε ἐν σώματι οὐκ οἶδα, εἰτε ἐκτὸς τοῦ σώματος οὐκ οἶδα, ὁ θεὸς οἶδεν - ἀρπαγέντα τὸν τοιοῦτον ἑως τρίτου οὐρανοῦ. |
|
| 3 | And I know that this man was caught up into Paradise - whether in the body or out of the body I do not know, God knows - | | καὶ οἶδα τὸν τοιοῦτον ἄνθρωπον - εἰτε ἐν σώματι εἰτε χωρὶς τοῦ σώματος οὐκ οἶδα, ὁ θεὸς οἶδεν - |
|
| 4 | and he heard things that cannot be told, which man may not utter. | | ὁτι ἡρπάγη εἰς τὸν παράδεισον καὶ ἠκουσεν ἀρρητα ῥήματα ἂ οὐκ ἐξὸν ἀνθρώπῳ λαλῆσαι. |
|
| 5 | On behalf of this man I will boast, but on my own behalf I will not boast, except of my weaknesses. | | ὑπὲρ τοῦ τοιούτου καυχήσομαι, ὑπὲρ δὲ ἐμαυτοῦ οὐ καυχήσομαι εἰ μὴ ἐν ταῖς ἀσθενείαις σου. |
|
| 6 | Though if I wish to boast, I shall not be a fool, for I shall be speaking the truth. But I refrain from it, so that no one may think more of me than he sees in me or hears from me. | | ἐὰν γὰρ θελήσω καυχήσασθαι, οὐκ ἐσομαι ἀφρων, ἀλήθειαν γὰρ ἐρῶ· φείδομαι δέ, μή τις εἰς ἐμὲ λογίσηται ὑπὲρ ὃ βλέπει με ἢ ἀκούει τι ἐξ ἐμοῦ |
|
| 7 | And to keep me from being too elated by the abundance of revelations, a thorn was given me in the flesh, a messenger of Satan, to harass me, to keep me from being too elated. | | καὶ τῇ ὑπερβολῇ τῶν ἀποκαλύψεων. διό, ἵνα μὴ ὑπεραίρωμαι, ἐδόθη μοι σκόλοψ τῇ σαρκί, ἀγγελος Σατανᾶ, ἵνα με κολαφίζῃ, ἵνα μὴ ὑπεραίρωμαι. |
|
| 8 | Three times I besought the Lord about this, that it should leave me; | | ὑπὲρ τούτου τρὶς τὸν κύριον παρεκάλεσα ἵνα ἀποστῇ ἀπ' ἐμοῦ· |
|
| 9 | but he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." I will all the more gladly boast of my weaknesses, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. | | καὶ εἰρηκέν μοι, Ἀρκεῖ σοι ἡ χάρις μου· ἡ γὰρ δύναμις ἐν ἀσθενείᾳ τελεῖται. ἡδιστα οὖν μᾶλλον καυχήσομαι ἐν ταῖς ἀσθενείαις μου, ἵνα ἐπισκηνώσῃ ἐπ' ἐμὲ ἡ δύναμις τοῦ Χριστοῦ. |
|
| 10 | For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities; for when I am weak, then I am strong. | | διὸ εὐδοκῶ ἐν ἀσθενείαις, ἐν ὑβρεσιν, ἐν ἀνάγκαις, ἐν διωγμοῖς καὶ στενοχωρίαις, ὑπὲρ Χριστοῦ· ὁταν γὰρ ἀσθενῶ, τότε δυνατός εἰμι. |
