哥林多后书 5
Chinese Standard Bible (Simplified)
死后的盼望
5 我们知道,当我们属地的家——这帐篷被拆毁的时候,我们就有从神而来的殿宇[a],不是人手所造的,而是在天上的永恒的家。 2 实际上,我们就是在这帐篷里呻吟叹息,切切地想穿上我们那从天上而来的居所。 3 如果真的穿上[b],我们将来被看见时,就不是赤身的。 4 原来我们在这帐篷里的人,承受着压力,甚至呻吟叹息;不是因为想要脱下,而是想要穿上,好让这会死的被生命所吞没。 5 为此而预备我们的就是神;他赐给我们圣灵做为预付凭据[c]。
6 因此我们总是满怀勇气,尽管知道我们还住在这身体里的时候,是与主相离的; 7 原来我们行事是藉着信,不是藉着眼见。 8 是的,我们满怀勇气,更乐意离开这身体,与主同住。 9 所以我们立定心志,无论是住在身体里,还是离开身体,都要得主的喜悦, 10 因为我们大家都必须站[d]在基督的审判台前,好使每个人都为自己藉着身体所做的,或善或恶,领受回报。
11 既然如此,我们因为知道敬畏主,就劝导人。我们在神面前是显明的,但我希望在你们的良心里,也是显明的。 12 我们不是再次向你们推荐自己,而是给你们一个夸耀我们的机会,好让你们可以应对那些只凭外貌、不凭内心夸耀的人, 13 因为我们如果癫狂,是为了神;如果清醒,是为了你们。 14 实际上,基督的爱催逼着我们,因为我们如此判定:既然一个人[e]替所有的人死了,所有的人就都死了; 15 基督替所有的人死了,好让那些活着的人不再为自己活,却为替他们死而复活的基督而活。
劝人与神和好的服事
16 所以,从今以后,我们不按人的标准[f]看任何人了。虽然我们曾经按人的标准[g]认识基督,但现在我们不再这样认识他了。 17 因此,如果有人在基督里,他就是新造的人[h];旧的已经过去,看哪,新的已经来临[i]。 18 这一切都是出于神,他藉着基督[j]使我们与他自己和好,并且把这劝人与他[k]和好的服事工作赐给了我们。 19 这就是说,在基督里,神使世人与自己和好,不把他们的过犯算在他们的身上,又把这和好的福音[l]托付了我们。 20 因此我们是基督的特使,就像神藉着我们在劝告人——我们代替基督请求说:“与神和好吧!” 21 神使那位没有罪[m]的替我们成为罪[n],好使我们在他里面成为神的义。

2 Corinthians 5
King James Version
5 For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.
2 For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven:
3 If so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked.
4 For we that are in this tabernacle do groan, being burdened: not for that we would be unclothed, but clothed upon, that mortality might be swallowed up of life.
5 Now he that hath wrought us for the selfsame thing is God, who also hath given unto us the earnest of the Spirit.
6 Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord:
7 (For we walk by faith, not by sight:)
8 We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.
9 Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him.
10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.
11 Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are made manifest unto God; and I trust also are made manifest in your consciences.
12 For we commend not ourselves again unto you, but give you occasion to glory on our behalf, that ye may have somewhat to answer them which glory in appearance, and not in heart.
13 For whether we be beside ourselves, it is to God: or whether we be sober, it is for your cause.
14 For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead:
15 And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again.
16 Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh: yea, though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we him no more.
17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
18 And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation;
19 To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.
20 Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God.
21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.
2 Corinthians 5
New International Version
Awaiting the New Body
5 For we know that if the earthly(A) tent(B) we live in is destroyed, we have a building from God, an eternal house in heaven, not built by human hands. 2 Meanwhile we groan,(C) longing to be clothed instead with our heavenly dwelling,(D) 3 because when we are clothed, we will not be found naked. 4 For while we are in this tent, we groan(E) and are burdened, because we do not wish to be unclothed but to be clothed instead with our heavenly dwelling,(F) so that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life. 5 Now the one who has fashioned us for this very purpose is God, who has given us the Spirit as a deposit, guaranteeing what is to come.(G)
6 Therefore we are always confident and know that as long as we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord. 7 For we live by faith, not by sight.(H) 8 We are confident, I say, and would prefer to be away from the body and at home with the Lord.(I) 9 So we make it our goal to please him,(J) whether we are at home in the body or away from it. 10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each of us may receive what is due us(K) for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad.
The Ministry of Reconciliation
11 Since, then, we know what it is to fear the Lord,(L) we try to persuade others. What we are is plain to God, and I hope it is also plain to your conscience.(M) 12 We are not trying to commend ourselves to you again,(N) but are giving you an opportunity to take pride in us,(O) so that you can answer those who take pride in what is seen rather than in what is in the heart. 13 If we are “out of our mind,”(P) as some say, it is for God; if we are in our right mind, it is for you. 14 For Christ’s love compels us, because we are convinced that one died for all, and therefore all died.(Q) 15 And he died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves(R) but for him who died for them(S) and was raised again.
16 So from now on we regard no one from a worldly(T) point of view. Though we once regarded Christ in this way, we do so no longer. 17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ,(U) the new creation(V) has come:[a] The old has gone, the new is here!(W) 18 All this is from God,(X) who reconciled us to himself through Christ(Y) and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: 19 that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting people’s sins against them.(Z) And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation. 20 We are therefore Christ’s ambassadors,(AA) as though God were making his appeal through us.(AB) We implore you on Christ’s behalf: Be reconciled to God.(AC) 21 God made him who had no sin(AD) to be sin[b] for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.(AE)
