哥林多后书 2

Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)

爱之深责之切

2 我已经决定了，下次到你们那里时不再使大家忧伤。 ²如果我使你们忧伤，那么除了因我而忧伤的你们，还有谁能使我喜乐呢？ ³我曾为这事写信给你们，免得我到你们那里时，那些本该使我喜乐的人反而使我忧伤。我也深信你们会以我的喜乐为你们的喜乐。 ⁴我万分难过、泪流满面地给你们写了前一封信，并非要使你们忧伤，而是要你们明白我是多么疼爱你们。

要饶恕犯罪的人

⁵那个令人痛心的人与其说使我忧伤，倒不如说使你们大家都有几分忧伤。我只说几分忧伤，是怕说得太重，他受不了。 ⁶这样的人受了众人的谴责也就够了。 ⁷你们现在要饶恕他、安慰他，免得他忧伤过度而一蹶不振。 ⁸我劝你们要让他确实知道你们仍然爱他。 ⁹为此，我也曾写信给你们，想知道你们是否凡事顺服。 ¹⁰你们饶恕谁，我也饶恕谁。我若饶恕，是为了你们的缘故在基督面前饶恕的， ¹¹免得撒旦乘虚而入，因为我们并非不知道它的诡计。

基督的香气

¹²我前往特罗亚传扬基督的福音时，主为我打开了传福音的大门。 ¹³那时，因为没有找到提多弟兄，我心里不安，便辞别众人来到马其顿。

¹⁴感谢上帝，祂常常在基督里率领我们走在凯旋的行列中，又借着我们到处散发那因认识基督而有的香气。 ¹⁵不论是在得救的人当中还是在灭亡的人当中，对上帝来说，我们都是基督的馨香之气。 ¹⁶对灭亡的人而言，这香气是叫人死亡的香气；对得救的人来说，这香气却是叫人得生命的香气。谁能担当这样的重任呢？ ¹⁷我们并不像许多人为了谋利而出卖上帝的道。我们是上帝差遣的，在上帝面前靠着基督诚诚实实地讲道。

2 Corinthians 2

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

2 ¹So I made up my mind not to make another visit that causes you grief.^(A) ²For if I cause you grief, who is there to make me glad but the one whom I have grieved? ³And I wrote as I did, so that when I came, I might not suffer grief from those who should have made me rejoice, for I am confident about all of you, that my joy would be the joy of all of you.^(B) ⁴For I wrote you out of much distress and anguish of heart and with many tears, not to cause you grief but to let you know the abundant love that I have for you.

Forgiveness for the Offender

⁵But if anyone has caused grief, he has caused it not to me but to some extent—not to exaggerate it—to all of you. ⁶This punishment by the majority is enough for such a person;^(C) ⁷so now instead you should forgive and console him, so that he may not be overwhelmed by even worse grief. ⁸So I urge you to reaffirm your love for him. ⁹I wrote for this reason: to test you and to know whether you are obedient in everything.^(D) ¹⁰Anyone whom you forgive, I also forgive. In fact, what I have forgiven, if I have forgiven anything, has been for your sake in the presence of Christ. ¹¹And we do this so that we may not be outwitted by Satan, for we are not ignorant of his designs.

Paul’s Anxiety in Troas

¹²When I came to Troas to proclaim the good news^[a] of Christ, a door was opened for me in the Lord,^(E) ¹³but my mind could not rest because I did not find my brother Titus there. So I said farewell to them and went on to Macedonia.

¹⁴But thanks be to God, who in Christ always leads us in triumphal procession and through us spreads in every place the fragrance that comes from knowing him.^[b] ¹⁵For we are the aroma of Christ to God among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing:^(F) ¹⁶to the one group a fragrance from death^[c] to death, to the other a fragrance from life^[d] to life. Who is qualified for these things?^(G) ¹⁷For we are not peddlers of God’s word like so many,^[e] but as persons of sincerity, as persons sent from God, we are speaking in Christ before God.^(H)
