Reaffirm Your Love | ||||
 NASB | KJV | ASV | DRB | YLT |
| 1 But I determined this for my own sake, that I would not come to you in sorrow again. | 1 But I determined this with myself, that I would not come again to you in heaviness. | 1 But I determined this for myself, that I would not come again to you with sorrow. | 1 But I determined this with myself, not to come to you again in sorrow. | 1 And I decided this to myself, not again to come in sorrow unto you, | 2 For if I cause you sorrow, who then makes me glad but the one whom I made sorrowful? | 2 For if I make you sorry, who is he then that maketh me glad, but the same which is made sorry by me? | 2 For if I make you sorry, who then is he that maketh me glad but he that is made sorry by me? | 2 For if I make you sorrowful, who is he then that can make me glad, but the same who is made sorrowful by me? | 2 for if I make you sorry, then who is he who is making me glad, except he who is made sorry by me? | 3 This is the very thing I wrote you, so that when I came, I would not have sorrow from those who ought to make me rejoice; having confidence in you all that my joy would be the joy of you all. | 3 And I wrote this same unto you, lest, when I came, I should have sorrow from them of whom I ought to rejoice; having confidence in you all, that my joy is the joy of you all. | 3 And I wrote this very thing, lest, when I came, I should have sorrow from them of whom I ought to rejoice; having confidence in you all, that my joy is the joy of you all. | 3 And I wrote this same to you; that I may not, when I come, have sorrow upon sorrow, from them of whom I ought to rejoice: having confidence in you all, that my joy is the joy of you all. | 3 and I wrote to you this same thing, that having come, I may not have sorrow from them of whom it behoved me to have joy, having confidence in you all, that my joy is of you all, | 4 For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote to you with many tears; not so that you would be made sorrowful, but that you might know the love which I have especially for you. | 4 For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote unto you with many tears; not that ye should be grieved, but that ye might know the love which I have more abundantly unto you. | 4 For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote unto you with many tears; not that ye should be made sorry, but that ye might know the love that I have more abundantly unto you. | 4 For out of much affliction and anguish of heart, I wrote to you with many tears: not that you should be made sorrowful: but that you might know the charity I have more abundantly towards you. | 4 for out of much tribulation and pressure of heart I wrote to you through many tears, not that ye might be made sorry, but that ye might know the love that I have more abundantly toward you. | 5 But if any has caused sorrow, he has caused sorrow not to me, but in some degree-- in order not to say too much-- to all of you. | 5 But if any have caused grief, he hath not grieved me, but in part: that I may not overcharge you all. | 5 But if any hath caused sorrow, he hath caused sorrow, not to me, but in part (that I press not too heavily) to you all. | 5 And if any one have caused grief, he hath not grieved me; but in part, that I may not burden you all. | 5 And if any one hath caused sorrow, he hath not caused sorrow to me, but in part, that I may not burden you all; | NASB | KJV | ASV | DRB | YLT |
| 6 Sufficient for such a one is this punishment which was inflicted by the majority, | 6 Sufficient to such a man is this punishment, which was inflicted of many. | 6 Sufficient to such a one is this punishment which was inflicted by the many; | 6 To him who is such a one, this rebuke is sufficient, which is given by many: | 6 sufficient to such a one is this punishment, that is by the more part, | 7 so that on the contrary you should rather forgive and comfort him, otherwise such a one might be overwhelmed by excessive sorrow. | 7 So that contrariwise ye ought rather to forgive him, and comfort him, lest perhaps such a one should be swallowed up with overmuch sorrow. | 7 so that contrariwise ye should rather forgive him and comfort him, lest by any means such a one should be swallowed up with his overmuch sorrow. | 7 So that on the contrary, you should rather forgive him and comfort him, lest perhaps such a one be swallowed up with overmuch sorrow. | 7 so that, on the contrary, it is rather for you to forgive and to comfort, lest by over abundant sorrow such a one may be swallowed up; | 8 Wherefore I urge you to reaffirm your love for him. | 8 Wherefore I beseech you that ye would confirm your love toward him. | 8 Wherefore I beseech you to confirm your love toward him. | 8 Wherefore, I beseech you, that you would confirm your charity towards him. | 8 wherefore, I call upon you to confirm love to him, | 9 For to this end also I wrote, so that I might put you to the test, whether you are obedient in all things. | 9 For to this end also did I write, that I might know the proof of you, whether ye be obedient in all things. | 9 For to this end also did I write, that I might know the proof of you, whether ye are obedient in all things. | 9 For to this end also did I write, that I may know the experiment of you, whether you be obedient in all things. | 9 for, for this also did I write, that I might know the proof of you, whether in regard to all things ye are obedient. | 10 But one whom you forgive anything, I forgive also; for indeed what I have forgiven, if I have forgiven anything, I did it for your sakes in the presence of Christ, | 10 To whom ye forgive any thing, I forgive also: for if I forgave any thing, to whom I forgave it, for your sakes forgave I it in the person of Christ; | 10 But to whom ye forgive anything, I forgive also: for what I also have forgiven, if I have forgiven anything, for your sakes have I forgiven it in the presence of Christ; | 10 And to whom you have pardoned any thing, I also. For, what I have pardoned, if I have pardoned any thing, for your sakes have I done it in the person of Christ. | 10 And to whom ye forgive anything -- I also; for I also, if I have forgiven anything, to whom I have forgiven it, because of you -- in the person of Christ -- I forgive it, | NASB | KJV | ASV | DRB | YLT |
| 11 so that no advantage would be taken of us by Satan, for we are not ignorant of his schemes. | 11 Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. | 11 that no advantage may be gained over us by Satan: for we are not ignorant of his devices. | 11 That we be not overreached by Satan. For we are not ignorant of his devices. | 11 that we may not be over-reached by the Adversary, for of his devices we are not ignorant. | 12 Now when I came to Troas for the gospel of Christ and when a door was opened for me in the Lord, | 12 Furthermore, when I came to Troas to preach Christ's gospel, and a door was opened unto me of the Lord, | 12 Now when I came to Troas for the gospel of Christ, and when a door was opened unto me in the Lord, | 12 And when I was come to Troas for the gospel of Christ, and a door was opened unto me in the Lord, | 12 And having come to Troas for the good news of the Christ, and a door to me having been opened in the Lord, | 13 I had no rest for my spirit, not finding Titus my brother; but taking my leave of them, I went on to Macedonia. | 13 I had no rest in my spirit, because I found not Titus my brother: but taking my leave of them, I went from thence into Macedonia. | 13 I had no relief for my spirit, because I found not Titus my brother: but taking my leave of them, I went forth into Macedonia. | 13 I had no rest in my spirit, because I found not Titus my brother; but bidding them farewell, I went into Macedonia. | 13 I have not had rest to my spirit, on my not finding Titus my brother, but having taken leave of them, I went forth to Macedonia; | 14 But thanks be to God, who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and manifests through us the sweet aroma of the knowledge of Him in every place. | 14 Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place. | 14 But thanks be unto God, who always leadeth us in triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest through us the savor of his knowledge in every place. | 14 Now thanks be to God, who always maketh us to triumph in Christ Jesus, and manifesteth the odour of his knowledge by us in every place. | 14 and to God are thanks, who at all times is leading us in triumph in the Christ, and the fragrance of His knowledge He is manifesting through us in every place, | 15 For we are a fragrance of Christ to God among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing; | 15 For we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ, in them that are saved, and in them that perish: | 15 For we are a sweet savor of Christ unto God, in them that are saved, and in them that perish; | 15 For we are the good odour of Christ unto God, in them that are saved, and in them that perish. | 15 because of Christ a sweet fragrance we are to God, in those being saved, and in those being lost; | NASB | KJV | ASV | DRB | YLT |
| 16 to the one an aroma from death to death, to the other an aroma from life to life. And who is adequate for these things? | 16 To the one we are the savour of death unto death; and to the other the savour of life unto life. And who is sufficient for these things? | 16 to the one a savor from death unto death; to the other a savor from life unto life. And who is sufficient for these things? | 16 To the one indeed the odour of death unto death: but to the others the odour of life unto life. And for these things who is so sufficient? | 16 to the one, indeed, a fragrance of death to death, and to the other, a fragrance of life to life; and for these things who is sufficient? | 17 For we are not like many, peddling the word of God, but as from sincerity, but as from God, we speak in Christ in the sight of God. | 17 For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ. | 17 For we are not as the many, corrupting the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God, speak we in Christ. | 17 For we are not as many, adulterating the word of God; but with sincerity, but as from God, before God, in Christ we speak. | 17 for we are not as the many, adulterating the word of God, but as of sincerity -- but as of God; in the presence of God, in Christ we do speak. |
