Paul Confronts the Corinthians
1Now I, Paul, myself urge you by the meekness and gentleness of Christ—I who am meek when face to face with you, but bold toward you when absent! 2I ask that when I am present I need not be bold with the confidence with which I intend to be courageous against some, who regard us as if we walked according to the flesh. 3For though we walk in the flesh, we do not wage battle according to the flesh, 4for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but divinely powerful for the destruction of fortresses. 5We are destroying arguments and all arrogance raised against the knowledge of God, and we are taking every thought captive to the obedience of Christ, 6and we are ready to punish all disobedience, whenever your obedience is complete.
1我保羅，就是與你們見面的時候是謙卑的，不在你們那裏的時候向你們是勇敢的，如今親自藉著基督的溫柔和平，勸你們。2有人以為我是憑著血氣行事，我也以為必須用勇敢待這等人，求你們不要叫我在你們那裏的時候，有這樣的勇敢。3因為我們雖然在血氣中行事，卻不憑著血氣爭戰；4我們爭戰的兵器，本不是屬血氣的，乃是在 神面前有能力，可以攻破堅固的營壘，5將各樣的計謀，各樣攔阻人認識神的那些自高之事，一概攻破了，又將人所有的心意奪回，使他都順服基督；6並且我已經豫備好了，等你們十分順服的時候，要責罰那一切不順服的人。
7You are looking at things as they are outwardly. If anyone is confident in himself that he is Christ’s, have him consider this again within himself, that just as he is Christ’s, so too are we. 8For if I boast somewhat more about our authority, which the Lord gave for building you up and not for destroying you, I will not be put to shame, 9for I do not want to seem as if I would terrify you by my letters. 10For they say, “His letters are weighty and strong, but his personal presence is unimpressive and his speech contemptible.” 11Have such a person consider this, that what we are in word by letters when absent, such persons we are also in deed when present.
7你們是看眼前的麼；倘若有人自信是屬基督的，他要再想想，他如何屬基督，我們也是如何屬基督的。8主賜給我們權柄，是要造就你們，並不是要敗壞你們；我就是為這權柄稍微誇口，也不至於慚愧；9我說這話免得你們以為我寫信是要威嚇你們。10因為有人說，他的信，又沉重，又利害；及至見面，卻是氣貌不揚，言語粗俗的。11這等人當想，我們不在那裏的時候，信上的言語如何，見面的時候，行事也必如何。
12For we do not presume to rank or compare ourselves with some of those who commend themselves; but when they measure themselves by themselves and compare themselves with themselves, they have no understanding. 13But we will not boast beyond our measure, but within the measure of the domain which God assigned to us as a measure, to reach even as far as you. 14For we are not overextending ourselves, as if we did not reach to you, for we were the first to come even as far as you in the gospel of Christ; 15not boasting beyond our measure, that is, in other people’s labors, but with the hope that as your faith grows, we will be, within our domain, enlarged even more by you, 16so as to preach the gospel even to the regions beyond you, and not to boast in what has been accomplished in the domain of another. 17But THE ONE WHO BOASTS IS TO BOAST IN THE LORD. 18For it is not the one who commends himself that is approved, but the one whom the Lord commends.
12因為我們不敢將自己和那自薦的人同列相比；他們用自己度量自己，用自己比較自己，乃是不通達的。13我們不願意分外誇口，只要照神所量給我們的界限，搆到你們那裏。14我們並非過了自己的界限，好像搆不到你們那裏；因為我們早到你們那裏，傳了基督的福音。15我們不仗著別人所勞碌的，分外誇口；但指望你們信心增長的時候，所量給我們的界限，就可以因著你們更加開展，16得以將福音傳到你們以外的地方，並不是在別人界限之內，藉著他現成的事誇口。17但誇口的當指著主誇口。18因為蒙悅納的，不是自己稱許的，乃是主所稱許的。
