2 Corinthians 13
New American Standard Bible
Examine Yourselves
13 (A)This is the third time that I am coming to you. (B)On the [a]testimony of two or three witnesses every matter shall be confirmed. 2 I have previously said when I was present the second time, and though now absent I say in advance to those who have (C)sinned in the past and to all the rest as well, that (D)if I come again I will not (E)spare anyone, 3 since you are (F)seeking proof of the (G)Christ who speaks in me, who is not weak toward you, but (H)mighty in you. 4 For indeed He was (I)crucified because of weakness, yet He lives (J)because of the power of God. For we too are (K)weak [b]in Him, yet (L)we will live with Him because of the power of God directed toward you.
5 (M)Test yourselves to see if you are in the faith; (N)examine yourselves! Or do you not recognize this about yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you—unless indeed you [c](O)fail the test? 6 But I expect that you will realize that we ourselves [d]do not fail the test. 7 Now we pray to God that you do nothing wrong; not so that we ourselves may appear approved, but that you may do what is right, though we may [e]appear unapproved. 8 For we cannot do anything against the truth, but only for the truth. 9 For we rejoice when we ourselves are (P)weak, but you are strong; this we also pray for, [f]that you (Q)become mature. 10 For this reason I am writing these things while absent, so that when present (R)I need not use (S)severity, in accordance with the (T)authority which the Lord gave me for building up and not for tearing down.
11 (U)Finally, brothers and sisters, [g]rejoice, (V)mend your ways, be comforted, (W)be like-minded, (X)live in peace; and (Y)the God of love and peace will be with you. 12 (Z)Greet one another with a holy kiss. 13 (AA)All the [h]saints greet you.
14 (AB)The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the (AC)love of God, and the (AD)fellowship of the Holy Spirit, be with you all.

Второ Коринтяни 13
Библия, синодално издание
13 (A)Трети път вече ида при вас: „от устата на двама или трима свидетели ще се потвърди всяка дума“.
2 (B)Напред казах и казвам, като да съм при вас втори път, и сега, като отсъствувам, пиша на съгрешилите отнапред и на всички други, че, кога дойда пак, няма да щадя;
3 вие търсите доказателства за Христа, Който говори в мене: Той не е безсилен спрямо вас, но е силен във вас.
4 (C)Защото, ако и да бе разпнат по немощ, ала е жив чрез силата Божия; и ние също, ако и да сме немощни в Него, ще бъдем живи с Него чрез сила Божия спрямо вас.
5 (D)Изследвайте сами себе си, дали сте във вярата; сами себе си опитвайте. Или не се съзнавате, че Иисус Христос е във вас? Не съзнавате, само ако сте недостойни.
6 А за нас, надявам се, ще узнаете, че ние не сме недостойни.
7 Молим Бога да не вършите никакво зло, не за да се покажем ние достойни, но за да вършите вие добро, та ние да бъдем като недостойни.
8 Защото ние сме силни не против истината, а за истината.
9 Радваме се, кога сме ние слаби, а вие силни; тъкмо за това се и молим – за ваше съвършенство.
10 (E)Пиша тия неща, като не съм при вас, та, кога дойда при вас, да не употребя строгост според властта, що ми е дадена от Господа за съзидване, а не за разстройване.
11 (F)И тъй, братя, радвайте се, съвършенствувайте се, утешавайте се, бъдете единомислени, живейте в мир, – и Бог на любовта и на мира ще бъде с вас.
12 (G)Поздравете се един други със свето целуване. Поздравяват ви всички светии.
13 Благодатта на Господа нашего Иисуса Христа, и любовта на Бога и Отца, и общуването на Светаго Духа да бъдат с всички вас. Амин.
2 Corinthians 13
King James Version
13 This is the third time I am coming to you. In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established.
2 I told you before, and foretell you, as if I were present, the second time; and being absent now I write to them which heretofore have sinned, and to all other, that, if I come again, I will not spare:
3 Since ye seek a proof of Christ speaking in me, which to you-ward is not weak, but is mighty in you.
4 For though he was crucified through weakness, yet he liveth by the power of God. For we also are weak in him, but we shall live with him by the power of God toward you.
5 Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?
6 But I trust that ye shall know that we are not reprobates.
7 Now I pray to God that ye do no evil; not that we should appear approved, but that ye should do that which is honest, though we be as reprobates.
8 For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth.
9 For we are glad, when we are weak, and ye are strong: and this also we wish, even your perfection.
10 Therefore I write these things being absent, lest being present I should use sharpness, according to the power which the Lord hath given me to edification, and not to destruction.
11 Finally, brethren, farewell. Be perfect, be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace shall be with you.
12 Greet one another with an holy kiss.
13 All the saints salute you.
14 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen.
