2 Corinthians

1我们与 神同工的，也劝你们不可徒受他的恩典。

2因为他说：「在悦纳的时候，我应允了你；在拯救的日子，我搭救了你。」看哪，现在正是悦纳的时候！现在正是拯救的日子；

3我们凡事都不叫人有妨碍，免得这职分被人毁谤；

4反倒在各样的事上表明自己是 神的用人，就如在许多的忍耐、患难、穷乏、困苦、

5鞭打、监禁、扰乱、勤劳、警醒、不食、

6廉洁、知识、恒忍、恩慈、圣灵的感化、无伪的爱心、

7真实的道理、 神的大能；仁义的兵器在左在右；

8荣耀、羞辱，恶名、美名；似乎是诱惑人的，却是诚实的；

9似乎不为人所知，却是人所共知的；似乎要死，却是活着的；似乎受责罚，却是不至丧命的；

10似乎忧愁，却是常常快乐的；似乎贫穷，却是叫许多人富足的；似乎一无所有，却是样样都有的。

11哥林多人哪，我们向你们，口是张开的，心是宽宏的。

12你们狭窄，原不在乎我们，是在乎自己的心肠狭窄。

13你们也要照样用宽宏的心报答我。我这话正像对自己的孩子说的。

永生 神的殿

14你们和不信的原不相配，不要同负一轭。义和不义有什么相交呢？光明和黑暗有什么相通呢？

15基督和彼列有什么相和呢？信主的和不信主的有什么相干呢？

16神的殿和偶像有什么相同呢？因为我们是永生 神的殿，就如 神曾说：我要在他们中间居住， 在他们中间来往； 我要作他们的 神； 他们要作我的子民。

17又说：你们务要从他们中间出来， 与他们分别； 不要沾不洁净的物，我就收纳你们。

18我要作你们的父； 你们要作我的儿女。 这是全能的主说的。

1And we helping do exhort you, that you receive not the grace of God in vain.

2For he saith: In an accepted time have I heard thee; and in the day of salvation have I helped thee. Behold, now is the acceptable time; behold, now is the day of salvation.

3Giving no offence to any man, that our ministry be not blamed:

4But in all things let us exhibit ourselves as the ministers of God, in much patience, in tribulation, in necessities, in distresses,

5In stripes, in prisons, in seditions, in labours, in watchings, in fastings,

6In chastity, in knowledge, in longsuffering, in sweetness, in the Holy Ghost, in charity unfeigned,

7In the word of truth, in the power of God; by the armour of justice on the right hand and on the left;

8By honour and dishonour, by evil report and good report; as deceivers, and yet true; as unknown, and yet known;

9As dying, and behold we live; as chastised, and not killed;

10As sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; as needy, yet enriching many; as having nothing, and possessing all things.

11Our mouth is open to you, O ye Corinthians, our heart is enlarged.

12You are not straitened in us, but in your own bowels you are straitened.

13But having the same recompense, (I speak as to my children,) be you also enlarged.

14Bear not the yoke with unbelievers. For what participation hath justice with injustice? Or what fellowship hath light with darkness?

15And what concord hath Christ with Belial? Or what part hath the faithful with the unbeliever?

16And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God; as God saith: I will dwell in them, and walk among them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

17Wherefore, Go out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing:

18And I will receive you; and I will be a Father to you; and you shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.
