1我們與 神同工的,也勸你們不可他的恩典。As God’s fellow workers, then, we urge you not to receive God’s grace in vain.
2因為他說:「在,我應允了你;在拯救的日子,我搭救了你。」看哪,現在正是悅納的時候!現在正是拯救的日子;For He says: “In the time of favor I heard you, and in the day of salvation I helped you.” Behold, now is the time of favor; now is the day of salvation!
3我們凡事都不叫人有妨礙,免得這職分被人毀謗;We put no obstacle in anyone’s way, so that no one can discredit our ministry.
4反倒在各樣的事上表明自己是 神的,就如在許多的忍耐、患難、窮乏、困苦、Rather, as servants of God we commend ourselves in every way: in great endurance; in troubles, hardships, and calamities;
5鞭打、監禁、、勤勞、警醒、、in beatings, imprisonments, and riots; in labor, sleepless nights, and hunger;
6廉潔、知識、、恩慈、聖靈的感化、無偽的愛心、in purity, knowledge, patience, and kindness; in the Holy Spirit and in sincere love;
7真實的道理、 神的大能;仁義的兵器;in truthful speech and in the power of God; with the weapons of righteousness in the right hand and in the left;
8榮耀、羞辱,惡名、美名;似乎是誘惑人的,卻是誠實的;through glory and dishonor, slander and praise; viewed as imposters, yet genuine;
9似乎不為人所知,卻是人所共知的;似乎要死,卻是活著的;似乎受責罰,卻是不至喪命的;unknown, yet well-known; dying, and yet we live on; punished, yet not killed;
10似乎憂愁,卻是常常快樂的;似乎貧窮,卻是叫許多人富足的;似乎一無所有,卻是樣樣都有的。sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; poor, yet making many rich; having nothing, and yet possessing everything.
11哪,我們向你們,口是張開的,心是寬宏的。We have spoken freely to you, Corinthians. Our hearts are open wide.
12你們狹窄,原不在乎我們,是在乎自己的狹窄。It is not our affection, but yours, that is restrained.
13你們也要照樣用寬宏的心報答我。我這話正像對自己的孩子說的。As a fair exchange—I speak as to my children—open wide your hearts also.
14你們和不信的原不相配,不要。義和不義有甚麼相交呢?光明和黑暗有甚麼呢?Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. For what partnership can righteousness have with wickedness? Or what fellowship does light have with darkness?
15基督和(彼列就是撒但的別名)有甚麼相和呢?信主的和不信主的有甚麼相干呢?What harmony is there between Christ and Belial? Or what does a believer have in common with an unbeliever?
16神的殿和偶像有甚麼相同呢?因為我們是永生 神的殿,就如 神曾說:我要在他們中間居住,在他們中間來往;我要作他們的 神;他們要作我的子民。What agreement can exist between the temple of God and idols? For we are the temple of the living God. As God has said: “I will dwell with them and walk among them, and I will be their God, and they will be My people.”
17又說:你們務要從他們中間出來,與他們分別;不要沾不潔淨的物,我就收納你們。“Therefore come out from among them and be separate, says the Lord. Touch no unclean thing, and I will receive you.”
18我要作你們的父;你們要作我的兒女。這是全能的主說的。And: “I will be a Father to you, and you will be My sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty.”
