THE SECOND EPISTLE OF ST. PAUL TO THE CORINTHIANS

Latin	English
[1] ecce tertio hoc venio ad vos in ore duorum vel trium testium stabit omne verbum	Behold, this is the third time I am coming to you: In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word stand.
[2] praedixi et praedico ut praesens bis et nunc absens his qui ante peccaverunt et ceteris omnibus quoniam si venero iterum non parcam	I have told before and foretell, as present and now absent, to them that sinned before and to all the rest, that if I come again, I will not spare.
[3] an experimentum quaeritis eius qui in me loquitur Christi qui in vos non infirmatur sed potens est in vobis	Do you seek a proof of Christ that speaketh in me, who towards you is not weak, but is mighty in you?
[4] nam et si crucifixus est ex infirmitate sed vivit ex virtute Dei nam et nos infirmi sumus in illo sed vivemus cum eo ex virtute Dei in vobis	For although he was crucified through weakness, yet he liveth by the power of God. For we also are weak in him: but we shall live with him by the power of God towards you.
[5] vosmet ipsos temptate si estis in fide ipsi vos probate an non cognoscitis vos ipsos quia Christus Iesus in vobis est nisi forte reprobi estis	Try your own selves if you be in the faith: prove ye yourselves. Know you not your own selves, that Christ Jesus is in you, unless perhaps you be reprobates?
[6] spero autem quod cognoscetis quia nos non sumus reprobi	But I trust that you shall know that we are not reprobates.
[7] oramus autem Deum ut nihil mali faciatis non ut nos probati pareamus sed ut vos quod bonum est faciatis nos autem ut reprobi simus	Now we pray God that you may do no evil, not that we may appear approved, but that you may do that which is good and that we may be as reprobates.
[8] non enim possumus aliquid adversus veritatem sed pro veritate	For we can do nothing against the truth: but for the truth.
[9] gaudemus enim quando nos infirmi sumus vos autem potentes estis hoc et oramus vestram consummationem	For we rejoice that we are weak and you are strong. This also we pray for, your perfection.
[10] ideo haec absens scribo ut non praesens durius agam secundum potestatem quam Dominus dedit mihi in aedificationem et non in destructionem	Therefore I write these things, being absent, that, being present, I may not deal more severely, according to the power which the Lord hath given me unto edification and not unto destruction.
[11] de cetero fratres gaudete perfecti estote exhortamini idem sapite pacem habete et Deus dilectionis et pacis erit vobiscum	For the rest, brethren, rejoice, be perfect, take exhortation, be of one mind, have peace. And the God of grace and of love shall be with you.
[12] salutate invicem in osculo sancto salutant vos sancti omnes	Salute one another with a holy kiss. All the saints salute you.
[13] gratia Domini nostri Iesu Christi et caritas Dei et communicatio Sancti Spiritus cum omnibus vobis amen	The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ and the charity of God and the communication of the Holy Ghost be with you all. Amen.
