Второ Коринтяни 1
1940 Bulgarian Bible
1 Павел, с Божията воля апостол Исус Христов, и брат Тимотей, до Божията църква, която е в Коринт, и до всичките светии, които са по цяла Ахаия:
2 Благодат и мир да бъде на вас от Бога, нашия Отец, и Господа Исуса Христа.
3 Благословен Бог и Отец на нашия Господ Исус Христос, Отец на милостивите и Бог на всяка утеха.
4 Който ни утешава във всяка наша скръб, за да можем и ние да утешаваме тия, които се намират в каквато и да била скръб, с утехата, с която и ние се утешаваме от Бога.
5 Защото, както изобилват в нас Христовите страдания, така и нашата утеха изобилва чрез Христа.
6 Но, ако ни наскърбяват, <това е> за вашата утеха и спасение, или ако ни утешават, <това е> за вашата утеха [и спасение], която действува да устоявате в същите страдания, които понасяме и ние.
7 И надеждата ни за вас е твърда; понеже знаем, че, както сте участници в страданията, така сте и в утехата.
8 Защото желаем да знаете, братя, за скръбта, която ни сполетя в Азия, че се отеготихме чрезмерно вън от силата си, така щото отчаяхме се дори за живота си;
9 даже ние сами <счетохме, че> бяхме приели смъртна присъда в себе си, - за да не уповаваме на себе си, но на Бога, Който възкресява мъртвите.
10 И Той ни избави от толкоз <близка> смърт, и още избавя, и надяваме се на Него, че пак ще ни избави,
11 като ни съдействувате вие чрез молитва, тъй щото, поради <стореното> на нас чрез мнозина добро, да благодарят мнозина за нас.
12 Защото нашата похвала е тая, свидетелството на нашата съвест, че ние живяхме на света, а най-много между вас, със светост и искреност пред Бога, не с плътска мъдрост, а с Божия благодат.
13 Защото не ви пишем друго освен това, което четете и даже признавате и което надявам се че и до край ще признавате,
14 (както и отчасти ни признахте), че сме похвала за вас, както и вие за нас, в деня на нашия Господ Исус.
15 С тая увереност възнамерявам да дойда първо при вас, за да имате двояка полза,
16 като през вас мина за Македония; а от Македония да дойда пак при вас, и <тогава> вие да ме изпратите за Юдея.
17 Добре, когато имах това намерение, лекоумно ли съм постъпил? или намерението ми е било плътско намерение, та да казвам и: Да, да, и: Не, не?
18 Заради Божията вярност, проповядването ми към вас не е било Да и Не. {В изданието от 1940 г. - "?" вместо "."}
19 Защото Божият Син, Исус Христос, Който биде проповядван помежду ви от нас, (от мене, Сила и Тимотея), не стана Да и Не но в него стана Да;
20 понеже в Него е Да <за всичките> Божии обещания, колкото много и да са; за това и чрез Него е Амин, за Божията слава чрез нас.
21 А тоя, Който ни утвърждава заедно с вас в Христа, и Който ни е помазал, е Бог,
22 Който ни е запечатил, и е дал в сърцата ни Духа в залог.
23 Но аз призовавам Бога за свидетел на моята душа, че за да ви пощадя, въздържах се да дойда в Коринт;
24 защото не господаруваме над вярата ви, но сме помощници на радостта ви; понеже, колкото за вярата, вие стоите <твърди>.
2 Corinthians 1
New International Version
1 Paul, an apostle(A) of Christ Jesus by the will of God,(B) and Timothy(C) our brother,
To the church of God(D) in Corinth,(E) together with all his holy people throughout Achaia:(F)
2 Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.(G)
Praise to the God of All Comfort
3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,(H) the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, 4 who comforts us(I) in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God. 5 For just as we share abundantly in the sufferings of Christ,(J) so also our comfort abounds through Christ. 6 If we are distressed, it is for your comfort and salvation;(K) if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which produces in you patient endurance of the same sufferings we suffer. 7 And our hope for you is firm, because we know that just as you share in our sufferings,(L) so also you share in our comfort.
8 We do not want you to be uninformed,(M) brothers and sisters,[a] about the troubles we experienced(N) in the province of Asia.(O) We were under great pressure, far beyond our ability to endure, so that we despaired of life itself. 9 Indeed, we felt we had received the sentence of death. But this happened that we might not rely on ourselves but on God,(P) who raises the dead.(Q) 10 He has delivered us from such a deadly peril,(R) and he will deliver us again. On him we have set our hope(S) that he will continue to deliver us, 11 as you help us by your prayers.(T) Then many will give thanks(U) on our behalf for the gracious favor granted us in answer to the prayers of many.
Paul’s Change of Plans
12 Now this is our boast: Our conscience(V) testifies that we have conducted ourselves in the world, and especially in our relations with you, with integrity[b](W) and godly sincerity.(X) We have done so, relying not on worldly wisdom(Y) but on God’s grace. 13 For we do not write you anything you cannot read or understand. And I hope that, 14 as you have understood us in part, you will come to understand fully that you can boast of us just as we will boast of you in the day of the Lord Jesus.(Z)
15 Because I was confident of this, I wanted to visit you(AA) first so that you might benefit twice.(AB) 16 I wanted to visit you on my way(AC) to Macedonia(AD) and to come back to you from Macedonia, and then to have you send me on my way(AE) to Judea.(AF) 17 Was I fickle when I intended to do this? Or do I make my plans in a worldly manner(AG) so that in the same breath I say both “Yes, yes” and “No, no”?
18 But as surely as God is faithful,(AH) our message to you is not “Yes” and “No.” 19 For the Son of God,(AI) Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us—by me and Silas[c](AJ) and Timothy(AK)—was not “Yes” and “No,” but in him it has always(AL) been “Yes.” 20 For no matter how many promises(AM) God has made, they are “Yes” in Christ. And so through him the “Amen”(AN) is spoken by us to the glory of God.(AO) 21 Now it is God who makes both us and you stand firm(AP) in Christ. He anointed(AQ) us, 22 set his seal(AR) of ownership on us, and put his Spirit in our hearts as a deposit, guaranteeing what is to come.(AS)
23 I call God as my witness(AT)—and I stake my life on it—that it was in order to spare you(AU) that I did not return to Corinth. 24 Not that we lord it over(AV) your faith, but we work with you for your joy, because it is by faith you stand firm.(AW)

Hoffnung für Alle
Paulus und sein Dienst als Apostel (Kapitel 1,1–2,13)
Anschrift und Gruß
1 Paulus, den Gott zum Apostel von Jesus Christus berufen hat, und sein Mitarbeiter Timotheus schreiben diesen Brief an die Gemeinde Gottes in Korinth und an alle in der Provinz Achaja, die zu Gott gehören.
2 Ich wünsche euch Gnade und Frieden von Gott, unserem Vater, und von Jesus Christus, unserem Herrn.
Dank für Gottes Hilfe
3 Gelobt sei Gott, der Vater unseres Herrn Jesus Christus! Er ist der barmherzige Vater, der Gott, von dem aller Trost kommt! 4 In allen Schwierigkeiten ermutigt er uns und steht uns bei, so dass wir auch andere trösten können, die wegen ihres Glaubens angefeindet werden. Wir ermutigen sie, wie Gott uns ermutigt hat. 5 Weil wir Christus gehören und ihm dienen, müssen wir viel leiden, aber in ebenso reichem Maße erfahren wir auch seine Hilfe. 6 Deshalb kommt es euch zugute, wenn wir verfolgt werden, denn unser Leid dient zu eurer Ermutigung und Rettung. Und wenn wir getröstet werden, dann geschieht auch das zu eurem Besten. Es gibt euch Kraft, die gleichen Leiden wie wir geduldig zu ertragen.
7 Darum sind wir zuversichtlich und haben keine Angst um euch. Denn ihr werdet zwar leiden müssen wie wir, aber genauso werdet ihr auch Gottes Trost und Ermutigung erfahren wie wir. 8 Liebe Brüder und Schwestern! Ihr sollt wissen, dass wir in der Provinz Asia Schweres erdulden mussten. Wir waren mit unseren Kräften am Ende und hatten schon mit dem Leben abgeschlossen. 9 Unser Tod schien unausweichlich. Aber Gott wollte, dass wir uns nicht auf uns selbst verlassen, sondern auf ihn, der die Toten zu neuem Leben erweckt. 10 Und tatsächlich hat Gott uns vor dem sicheren Tod gerettet und wird es auch in Zukunft tun. Wir setzen unser Vertrauen auf ihn: Er wird uns immer wieder aus Todesgefahr befreien. 11 Dazu tragen auch eure Gebete für uns bei. Und so werden nicht nur wir, sondern viele Gott dafür danken, dass er uns gnädig ist und uns bewahrt hat.
Paulus wehrt sich gegen falsche Anschuldigungen
12 Wenn es etwas gibt, worauf wir stolz sein können, dann ist es unser gutes Gewissen: Wir leben so, wie Gott es will; wir haben euch nichts vorgemacht. Nicht eigensüchtige Überlegungen haben unser Handeln bestimmt, sondern allein Gottes Barmherzigkeit. So haben wir uns überall verhalten, und ganz besonders bei euch. 13 Auch unsere Briefe wollen nichts anderes sagen, als was ihr lesen und verstehen könnt. Ich hoffe, ihr werdet einmal voll und ganz begreifen, was ich meine. 14 Wenigstens zum Teil habt ihr schon verstanden, dass ihr auf uns stolz sein könnt, genauso wie wir auf euch, wenn Jesus, unser Herr, kommen wird.
15 In dieser Zuversicht wollte ich zuerst euch besuchen. Gerne wäre ich zweimal zu euch gekommen und hätte euch beide Male Gottes Liebe nahegebracht – 16 sowohl auf dem Weg nach Mazedonien als auch auf der Rückreise von dort. Einige von euch hätten mich dann nach Judäa begleiten können. 17 Bin ich denn wirklich leichtfertig gewesen, als ich diese Reise plante? Entscheide ich etwa so, wie ich selbst es für richtig halte, ohne nach Gottes Willen zu fragen? Gehöre ich zu den unzuverlässigen Leuten, die »Ja« sagen, wenn sie »Nein« meinen?
18 Gott ist mein Zeuge, dass wir niemals etwas anderes sagen, als wir wirklich meinen. 19 Auch Jesus Christus, der Sohn Gottes, den Silvanus, Timotheus und ich euch verkündet haben, war nicht gleichzeitig »Ja« und »Nein«. Er selbst ist in seiner Person das Ja Gottes zu uns, 20 denn alle Zusagen Gottes erfüllen sich in ihm. Und auf das, was Christus für uns getan hat, antworten wir zur Ehre Gottes mit »Amen«.
21 Gott selbst hat unser und euer Leben auf ein festes Fundament gestellt, auf Christus, und uns mit seinem Geist erfüllt[a]. 22 So drückte er uns sein Siegel auf, wir sind sein Eigentum geworden. Das Geschenk des Geistes in unseren Herzen ist Gottes sicheres Pfand für das, was er uns noch schenken wird.
23 Warum bin ich dann nicht wie geplant nach Korinth gekommen? Ich rufe Gott als Zeugen an; er soll mich strafen, wenn ich nicht die Wahrheit sage: Es geschah nur, um euch zu schonen. 24 Damit will ich nicht sagen, dass wir über euch und euren Glauben herrschen wollten. – Nein! Unser Auftrag ist es zu helfen, dass ihr euch freuen könnt. Im Glauben steht ihr ja bereits fest.

2 Corinthians 1
King James Version
1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timothy our brother, unto the church of God which is at Corinth, with all the saints which are in all Achaia:
2 Grace be to you and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort;
4 Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.
5 For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also aboundeth by Christ.
6 And whether we be afflicted, it is for your consolation and salvation, which is effectual in the enduring of the same sufferings which we also suffer: or whether we be comforted, it is for your consolation and salvation.
7 And our hope of you is stedfast, knowing, that as ye are partakers of the sufferings, so shall ye be also of the consolation.
8 For we would not, brethren, have you ignorant of our trouble which came to us in Asia, that we were pressed out of measure, above strength, insomuch that we despaired even of life:
9 But we had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God which raiseth the dead:
10 Who delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver: in whom we trust that he will yet deliver us;
11 Ye also helping together by prayer for us, that for the gift bestowed upon us by the means of many persons thanks may be given by many on our behalf.
12 For our rejoicing is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity and godly sincerity, not with fleshly wisdom, but by the grace of God, we have had our conversation in the world, and more abundantly to you-ward.
13 For we write none other things unto you, that what ye read or acknowledge; and I trust ye shall acknowledge even to the end;
14 As also ye have acknowledged us in part, that we are your rejoicing, even as ye also are our's in the day of the Lord Jesus.
15 And in this confidence I was minded to come unto you before, that ye might have a second benefit;
16 And to pass by you into Macedonia, and to come again out of Macedonia unto you, and of you to be brought on my way toward Judaea.
17 When I therefore was thus minded, did I use lightness? or the things that I purpose, do I purpose according to the flesh, that with me there should be yea yea, and nay nay?
18 But as God is true, our word toward you was not yea and nay.
19 For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us, even by me and Silvanus and Timotheus, was not yea and nay, but in him was yea.
20 For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us.
21 Now he which stablisheth us with you in Christ, and hath anointed us, is God;
22 Who hath also sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.
23 Moreover I call God for a record upon my soul, that to spare you I came not as yet unto Corinth.
24 Not for that we have dominion over your faith, but are helpers of your joy: for by faith ye stand.
