2.Korinther 2 | English Standard Version الكتاب المقدس

2.Korinther 2 | English Standard Version
1 For I made up my mind not to make another painful visit to you. 2 For if I cause you pain, who is there to make me glad but the one whom I have pained? 3 And I wrote as I did, so that when I came I might not suffer pain from those who should have made me rejoice, for I felt sure of all of you, that my joy would be the joy of you all. 4 For I wrote to you out of much affliction and anguish of heart and with many tears, not to cause you pain but to let you know the abundant love that I have for you.

Forgive the Sinner

5 Now if anyone has caused pain, he has caused it not to me, but in some measure—not to put it too severely—to all of you. 6 For such a one, this punishment by the majority is enough, 7 so you should rather turn to forgive and comfort him, or he may be overwhelmed by excessive sorrow. 8 So I beg you to reaffirm your love for him. 9 For this is why I wrote, that I might test you and know whether you are obedient in everything. 10 Anyone whom you forgive, I also forgive. Indeed, what I have forgiven, if I have forgiven anything, has been for your sake in the presence of Christ, 11 so that we would not be outwitted by Satan; for we are not ignorant of his designs.

Triumph in Christ

12 When I came to Troas to preach the gospel of Christ, even though a door was opened for me in the Lord, 13 my spirit was not at rest because I did not find my brother Titus there. So I took leave of them and went on to Macedonia. 14 But thanks be to God, who in Christ always leads us in triumphal procession, and through us spreads the fragrance of the knowledge of him everywhere. 15 For we are the aroma of Christ to God among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing, 16 to one a fragrance from death to death, to the other a fragrance from life to life. Who is sufficient for these things? 17 For we are not, like so many, peddlers of God’s word, but as men of sincerity, as commissioned by God, in the sight of God we speak in Christ.

الكتاب المقدس
1 وَلَكِنِّي قَرَّرْتُ أَنْ لَا يَكُونَ مَجِيئِي إِلَيْكُمْ سَبَباً لإِحْزَانِكُمْ. 2 فَإِنْ أَحْزَنْتُكُمْ فَمَنْ ذَا يُفَرِّحُنِي إِلّا الَّذِي أَحْزَنْتُهُ؟ 3 لِهَذَا أَكْتُبُ إِلَيْكُمْ مَا أَكْتُبُهُ هُنَا، حَتَّى عِنْدَمَا أَجِيءُ لَا يَأْتِينِي الْحُزْنُ مِنَ الَّذِي كَانَ يَجِبُ أَنْ يَأْتِيَنِي مِنْهُ الْفَرَحُ. وَلِي ثِقَةٌ بِجَمِيعِكُمْ أَنَّ فَرَحِي هُوَ فَرَحُكُمْ جَمِيعاً. 4 فَإِنَّ مَا كَتَبْتُهُ إِلَيْكُمْ سَابِقاً كَانَ نَابِعاً مِنْ ضِيقٍ شَدِيدٍ وَاكْتِئَابٍ فِي الْقَلْبِ، وَمَصْحُوباً بِدُمُوعٍ كَثِيرَةٍ. وَمَا كَانَ قَصْدِي أَنْ أُحْزِنَكُمْ، بَلْ أَنْ تَعْرِفُوا الْمَحَبَّةَ الْفَيَّاضَةَ الَّتِي عِنْدِي مِنْ نَحْوِكُمْ.

مسامحة المذنب

5 وَإذَا كَانَ أَحَدٌ قَدْ سَبَّبَ الْحُزْنَ، فَإِنَّهُ لَمْ يُسَبِّبِ الْحُزْنَ لِي شَخْصِيًّا، بَلْ لِجَمِيعِكُمْ إِلَى حَدٍّ مَا، هَذَا لِكَيْ لَا أُبَالِغَ! 6 وَالآنَ، يَكْفِي ذَلِكَ الرَّجُلَ الْمُذْنِبَ الْقِصَاصُ الَّذِي أَنْزَلَهُ بِهِ أَكْثَرُكُمْ. 7 وَعَلَى نَقِيضِ ذَلِكَ، فَأَحْرَى بِكُمُ الآنَ أَنْ تُسَامِحُوهُ وَتُشَجِّعُوهُ، وَإلَّا فَإِنَّهُ قَدْ يُبْتَلَعُ فِي غَمْرَةِ الْحُزْنِ الشَّدِيدِ. 8 لِذَلِكَ أُنَاشِدُكُمْ أَنْ تُؤَكِّدُوا لَهُ مَحَبَّتَكُمْ. 9 وَقَدْ كَانَ مَا كَتَبْتُهُ إِلَيْكُمْ بِهَدَفِ اخْتِبَارِكُمْ أَيْضاً، لأَعْرِفَ مَدَى طَاعَتِكُمْ فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ. 10 فَمَنْ تُسَامِحُونَهُ بِشَيْءٍ، أُسَامِحُهُ أَنَا أَيْضاً. وَإذَا كُنْتُ أَنَا أَيْضاً قَدْ سَامَحْتُ ذَلِكَ الرَّجُلَ بِشَيْءٍ، فَقَدْ سَامَحْتُهُ مِنْ أَجْلِكُمْ فِي حَضْرَةِ الْمَسِيحِ، 11 مَخَافَةَ أَنْ يَسْتَغِلَّنَا الشَّيْطَانُ لأَنَنَا لَا نَجْهَلُ نِيَّاتِهِ.

خدام العهد الجديد

12 وَلَمَّا وَصَلْتُ إِلَى مَدِينَةِ تَرُوَاسَ لأَجْلِ إِنْجِيلِ الْمَسِيحِ، وَفَتَحَ لِيَ الرَّبُّ بَاباً لِلْخِدْمَةِ 13 لَمْ تَسْتَرِحْ رُوحِي لأَنِّي لَمْ أَجِدْ تِيطُسَ أَخِي. فَوَدَّعْتُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ هُنَاكَ وَتَوَجَّهْتُ إِلَى مُقَاطَعَةِ مَقِدُونِيَّةَ. 14 وَلكِنْ، شُكْراً لِلهِ الَّذِي يَقُودُنَا دَائِماً فِي مَوْكِبِ النَّصْرِ فِي الْمَسِيحِ، وَيَنْشُرُ بِنَا رَائِحَةَ مَعْرِفَتِهِ فِي كُلِّ مَكَانٍ. 15 فَإِنَّنَا رَائِحَةُ الْمَسِيحِ الطَّيِّبَةُ الْمُرْتَفِعَةُ إِلَى اللهِ، الْمُنْتَشِرَةُ عَلَى السَّوَاءِ عِنْدَ الَّذِينَ يَخْلُصُونَ وَعِنْدَ الَّذِينَ يَهْلِكُونَ: 16 هَؤُلاءِ يَشُمُّونَ فِيهَا رَائِحَةً مِنَ الْمَوْتِ وَإِلَى الْمَوْتِ، وَأُولئِكَ رَائِحَةً مِنَ الْحَيَاةِ وَإِلَى الْحَيَاةِ. وَمَنْ هُوَ صَاحِبُ الْكَفَاءَةِ لِتَأْدِيَةِ هذِهِ الأُمُورِ؟ 17 فَإِنَّنَا لَا نُتَاجِرُ بِكَلِمَةِ اللهِ كَمَا يَفْعَلُ الْكَثِيرُونَ، وَإِنَّمَا بِإِخْلاصٍ وَمِنْ قِبَلِ اللهِ، وَأَمَامَ اللهِ، نَتَكَلَّمُ فِي الْمَسِيحِ.
