林后2:1 我自己决定了，到你们那里去的时候，不再是忧愁的。
林后2:1 But it was my decision for myself, not to come again to you with sorrow.
林后2:2 如果我使你们忧愁，除了那因我而忧愁的人以外，谁能使我快乐呢？
林后2:2 For if I give you sorrow, who then will make me glad, but he who is made sad by me?
林后2:3 我写了这样的信，免得我来的时候，应该使我快乐的人反而使我忧愁；我深信你们众人都以我的喜乐为你们的喜乐。
林后2:3 And I said this very thing in my letter, for fear that when I came I might have sorrow from those from whom it was right for me to have joy; being certain of this, that my joy is the joy of you all.
林后2:4 我从前心里痛苦难过，流着眼泪写信给你们，并不是要使你们忧愁，而是要你们知道我是多么爱你们。
林后2:4 For out of much trouble and pain of heart and much weeping I sent my letter to you; not to give you sorrow, but so that you might see how great is the love which I have to you.
林后2:5 如果有人使人忧愁，他不是使我忧愁，而是使你们众人都有一点忧愁；我只说有一点，是避免说得过分。
林后2:5 But if anyone has been a cause of sorrow, he has been so, not to me only, but in some measure to all of you (I say this that I may not be over-hard on you).
林后2:6 这样的人受了许多人的责备，也就够了，
林后2:6 Let it be enough for such a man to have undergone the punishment which the church put on him;
林后2:7 倒不如饶恕他，安慰他，免得他因忧愁过度而受不了。
林后2:7 So that now, on the other hand, it is right for him to have forgiveness and comfort from you, for fear that his sorrow may be over-great.
林后2:8 所以，我劝你们要向他确实显明你们的爱心。
林后2:8 For which cause my desire is that you will make your love to him clear by your acts.
林后2:9 为这缘故，我写了那封信，要考验你们是不是凡事都顺从。
林后2:9 And for the same reason I sent you a letter so that I might be certain of your desire to do my orders in all things.
林后2:10 你们饶恕谁，我也饶恕谁；我所饶恕了的（如果我饶恕过什么），是为了你们在基督面前饶恕的，
林后2:10 But if you give forgiveness to anyone, I do the same: for if I have given forgiveness for anything, I have done it because of you, in the person of Christ;
林后2:11 免得撒但有机可乘，因为我们并不是不晓得他的诡计。
林后2:11 So that Satan may not get the better of us: for we are not without knowledge of his designs.
林后2:12 从前我为基督的福音到了特罗亚，虽然主给我开了门，
林后2:12 Now when I came to Troas for the good news of Christ, and there was an open door for me in the Lord,
林后2:13 我心里仍然没有安宁，因为见不到提多弟兄。于是我辞别了那里的人，到马其顿去了。
林后2:13 I had no rest in my spirit because Titus my brother was not there: so I went away from them, and came into Macedonia.
林后2:14 感谢 神，他常常在基督里，使我们这些作俘虏的，列在凯旋的队伍当中，又借着我们在各地散播香气，就是使人认识基督。
林后2:14 But praise be to God who makes us strong to overcome in Christ, and makes clear through us in every place the value of the knowledge of him.
林后2:15 因为无论在得救的人或灭亡的人中间，我们都是基督的馨香，是献给 神的。
林后2:15 For we are a sweet perfume of Christ to God in those who are getting salvation and in those who are going to destruction;
林后2:16 对于灭亡的人，这是死亡的气味叫人死；对于得救的人，这却是生命的香气使人活。这些事谁够资格作呢？
林后2:16 To the one it is a perfume of death to death; to the other a perfume of life to life. And who is enough for such things?
林后2:17 我们不像那许多的人，为了图利而谬讲 神的道。相反地，我们讲话，是出于真诚，出于 神，是在 神面前、在基督里的。
林后2:17 For we are not like the great number who make use of the word of God for profit: but our words are true, as from God, being said as before God in Christ.
