| II Corinthians 13: (YLT) |
| 1) This third time do I come unto you; on the mouth of two witnesses or three shall every saying be established; |
| 2) I have said before, and I say [it] before, as being present, the second time, and being absent, now, do I write to those having sinned before, and to all the rest, that if I come again, I will not spare, |
| 3) since a proof ye seek of the Christ speaking in me, who to you is not infirm, but is powerful in you, |
| 4) for even if he was crucified from infirmity, yet he doth live from the power of God; for we also are weak in him, but we shall live with him from the power of God toward you. |
| 5) Your own selves try ye, if ye are in the faith; your own selves prove ye; do ye not know your own selves, that Jesus Christ is in you, if ye be not in some respect disapproved of? |
| 6) and I hope that ye shall know that we -- we are not disapproved of; |
| 7) and I pray before God that ye do no evil, not that we may appear approved, but that ye may do that which is right, and we may be as disapproved; |
| 8) for we are not able to do anything against the truth, but for the truth; |
| 9) for we rejoice when we may be infirm, and ye may be powerful; and this also we pray for -- your perfection! |
| 10) because of this, these things -- being absent -- I write, that being present, I may not treat [any] sharply, according to the authority that the Lord did give me for building up, and not for casting down. |
| 11) Henceforth, brethren, rejoice; be made perfect, be comforted, be of the same mind, be at peace, and the God of the love and peace shall be with you; |
| 12) salute one another in an holy kiss; |
| 13) salute you do all the saints; |
| 14) the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, [is] with you all! Amen. |
