1Kahimanawari'y mapagtiisan ninyo ako sa kaunting kamangmangan: nguni't tunay na ako'y inyong pinagtitiisan. 2Sapagka't ako'y naninibugho tungkol sa inyo ng panibughong ukol sa Dios: sapagka't kayo'y aking pinapagasawa sa isa, upang kayo'y maiharap ko kay Cristo na tulad sa dalagang malinis. 3Nguni't ako'y natatakot, baka sa anomang paraan, kung paanong si Eva ay nadaya ng ahas sa kaniyang katusuhan, ang inyong walang malay at malinis na mga pagiisip na kay Cristo ay pasamain. 4Sapagka't kung yaong paririto ay mangaral ng ibang Jesus, na hindi namin ipinangaral, o kung kayo'y nagsisitanggap ng ibang espiritu na hindi ninyo tinanggap, o ibang evangelio na hindi ninyo tinanggap, ay mabuting pagtiisan ninyo. 5Sapagka't inaakala kong sa anoman ay hindi ako huli sa lubhang mga dakilang apostol. 6Datapuwa't bagaman ako ay magaspang sa pananalita, gayon ma'y hindi ako sa kaalaman; hindi, kundi sa lahat ng paraan ay ipinahayag namin ito sa inyo. 7Ako nga baga'y nagkasala sa pagpapakababa ko sa aking sarili, upang kayo'y mangataas dahil sa ipinangaral ko sa inyo na walang bayad ang evangelio ng Dios? 8Aking sinamsaman ang ibang mga iglesia, sa pagtanggap ko ng upa sa kanila, upang ipangasiwa ko sa inyo; 9At pagka ako'y kaharap ninyo at ako'y nagkukulang ng ikabubuhay, ako'y hindi naging pasan sa kanino man; sapagka't mga kapatid nang sila'y manggaling sa Macedonia ay tumakip ng aming pangangailangan; at sa lahat ng mga bagay ay pinagingatan kong huwag maging pasanin ninyo, at magiingat nga ako. 10Kung paanong nasa akin ang katotohanan ni Cristo, sinoman ay hindi makapipigil sa akin sa pagmamapuring ito sa mga dako ng Acaya. 11Bakit? sapagka't hindi ko baga kayo iniibig? Nalalaman ng Dios. 12Datapuwa't ang aking ginagawa ay siya kong gagawin, upang maputol ko ang kadahilanan sa mga nagnanasa ng kadahilanan; upang sa anomang ipinagmamapuri nila ay mangasumpungan sila na gaya namin. 13Sapagka't ang mga gayong tao ay mga bulaang apostol, mga magdarayang manggagawa, na nangagpapakunwaring mga apostol ni Cristo. 14At hindi katakataka: sapagka't si Satanas man ay nagpapakunwaring anghel ng kaliwanagan. 15Hindi malaking bagay nga na ang kaniyang mga ministro naman ay magpakunwari na waring ministro ng katuwiran; na ang kanilang wakas ay masasangayon sa kanilang mga gawa. 16Muling sinasabi ko, Huwag isipin ng sinoman na ako'y mangmang; nguni't kung gayon, gayon ma'y tanggapin ninyo akong gaya ng isang mangmang, upang ako naman ay makapagmapuri ng kaunti. 17Ang ipinangungusap ko ay hindi ko ipinangungusap ayon sa Panginoon, kundi gaya ng sa kamangmangan, sa pagkakatiwalang ito sa pagmamapuri. 18Yamang maraming nagmamapuri ayon sa laman, ako nama'y magmamapuri. 19Sapagka't pinagtitiisan ninyo na may kasayahan ang mga mangmang, palibhasa'y marurunong kayo. 20Sapagka't inyong pinagtitiisan ang sinoman, kung kayo'y inaalipin, kung kayo'y sinasakmal, kung kayo'y binibihag, kung siya'y nagpapalalo, kung kayo'y sinasampal sa mukha. 21Sinasalita ko ang tungkol sa kapulaan, na wari ay naging mahina kami. Nguni't kung ang sinoman ay matapang sa anoman (nangungusap ako sa kamangmangan), ako'y matapang din naman. 22Sila baga'y mga Hebreo? ako man. Sila baga'y mga Israelita? ako man. Sila baga'y binhi ni Abraham? ako man. 23Sila baga'y mga ministro ni Cristo? (ako'y nangungusap na waring nasisira ang bait) lalo pa ako; sa pagpapagal ako'y lubhang sagana, sa mga bilangguan ay lubhang madalas, sa mga palo ay walang bilang, sa mga ikamamatay ay malimit. 24Sa mga Judio ay makalimang tumanggap ako ng tigaapat na pung palo, kulang ng isa. 25Makaitlong ako'y hinampas ng mga panghampas, minsan ako'y binato, makaitlong ako'y nabagbag, isang araw at isang gabi na ako'y nasa kalaliman ng dagat; 26Sa mga paglalakbay ay madalas, sa mga kapanganiban sa mga ilog, sa mga kapanganiban sa mga tulisan, sa mga kapanganiban sa aking mga kababayan, sa mga kapanganiban sa mga Gentil, sa mga kapanganiban sa bayan, sa mga kapanganiban sa mga ilang, sa mga kapanganiban sa dagat, sa mga kapanganiban sa gitna ng mga bulaang kapatid; 27Sa pagpapagal at sa pagdaramdam, sa mga pagpupuyat ay madalas, sa gutom at uhaw, mga pagaayuno ay madalas, sa ginaw at kahubaran. 28Bukod sa mga bagay na yaon, ay may umiinis sa akin sa araw-araw, ang kabalisahan dahil sa lahat ng mga iglesia. 29Sino ang nanghina, at ako'y hindi nanghina? Sino ang napapatisod, at ako'y di nagdaramdam? 30Kung kinakailangang ako'y magmapuri, ako'y magmamapuri sa mga bagay na nauukol sa aking kahinaan. 31Ang Dios at Ama ng Panginoong Jesus, na mapalad magpakailan pa man, ang nakakaalam na ako'y hindi nagsisinungaling. 32Sa Damasco ay binantayan ng gobernador na sakop ng haring Aretas ang bayan ng mga taga Damasco, upang ako'y hulihin: 33At sa isang dungawan, ay napahugos ako sa kuta, sa isang balaong, at ako'y nakatanan sa kanilang mga kamay.
1I wish that you would bear with me in a little foolishness, but indeed you do bear with me. 2For I am jealous over you with a godly jealousy. For I married you to one husband, that I might present you as a pure virgin to Christ. 3But I am afraid that somehow, as the serpent deceived Eve in his craftiness, so your minds might be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. 4For if he who comes preaches another Jesus, whom we did not preach, or if you receive a different spirit, which you did not receive, or a different “good news”, which you did not accept, you put up with that well enough. 5For I reckon that I am not at all behind the very best apostles. 6But though I am unskilled in speech, yet I am not unskilled in knowledge. No, in every way we have been revealed to you in all things. 7Or did I commit a sin in humbling myself that you might be exalted, because I preached to you God’s Good News free of charge? 8I robbed other assemblies, taking wages from them that I might serve you. 9When I was present with you and was in need, I wasn’t a burden on anyone, for the brothers, when they came from Macedonia, supplied the measure of my need. In everything I kept myself from being burdensome to you, and I will continue to do so. 10As the truth of Christ is in me, no one will stop me from this boasting in the regions of Achaia. 11Why? Because I don’t love you? God knows. 12But what I do, that I will do, that I may cut off occasion from them that desire an occasion, that in which they boast, they may be found even as we. 13For such men are false apostles, deceitful workers, masquerading as Christ’s apostles. 14And no wonder, for even Satan masquerades as an angel of light. 15It is no great thing therefore if his servants also masquerade as servants of righteousness, whose end will be according to their works. 16I say again, let no one think me foolish. But if so, yet receive me as foolish, that I also may boast a little. 17That which I speak, I don’t speak according to the Lord, but as in foolishness, in this confidence of boasting. 18Seeing that many boast after the flesh, I will also boast. 19For you bear with the foolish gladly, being wise. 20For you bear with a man, if he brings you into bondage, if he devours you, if he takes you captive, if he exalts himself, if he strikes you on the face. 21I speak by way of disparagement, as though we had been weak. Yet however any is bold (I speak in foolishness), I am bold also. 22Are they Hebrews? So am I. Are they Israelites? So am I. Are they the seed of Abraham? So am I. 23Are they servants of Christ? (I speak as one beside himself) I am more so; in labors more abundantly, in prisons more abundantly, in stripes above measure, in deaths often. 24Five times from the Jews I received forty stripes minus one. 25Three times I was beaten with rods. Once I was stoned. Three times I suffered shipwreck. I have been a night and a day in the deep. 26I have been in travels often, perils of rivers, perils of robbers, perils from my countrymen, perils from the Gentiles, perils in the city, perils in the wilderness, perils in the sea, perils among false brothers; 27in labor and travail, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, and in cold and nakedness. 28Besides those things that are outside, there is that which presses on me daily, anxiety for all the assemblies. 29Who is weak, and I am not weak? Who is caused to stumble, and I don’t burn with indignation? 30If I must boast, I will boast of the things that concern my weakness. 31The God and Father of the Lord Jesus Christ, he who is blessed forever more, knows that I don’t lie. 32In Damascus the governor under King Aretas guarded the city of the Damascenes desiring to arrest me. 33Through a window I was let down in a basket by the wall, and escaped his hands.
1Och, of gij mij een weinig verdroegt in de onwijsheid; ja ook, verdraagt mij! 2Want ik ben ijverig over u met een ijver Gods; want ik heb ulieden toebereid, om u als een reine maagd aan een man voor te stellen, namelijk aan Christus. 3Doch ik vrees, dat niet enigszins, gelijk de slang Eva door haar arglistigheid bedrogen heeft, alzo uw zinnen bedorven worden, om af te wijken van de eenvoudigheid, die in Christus is. 4Want indien degene, die komt, een anderen Jezus predikte, dien wij niet gepredikt hebben, of indien gij een anderen geest ontvingt, dien gij niet hebt ontvangen, of een ander Evangelie, dat gij niet hebt aangenomen, zo verdroegt gij hem met recht. 5Want ik acht, dat ik nergens minder in ben geweest dan de uitnemendste apostelen. 6En indien ik ook slecht ben in woorden, nochtans ben ik het niet in wetenschap; maar alleszins zijn wij in alle dingen onder u openbaar geworden. 7Heb ik zonde gedaan, als ik mijzelven vernederd heb, opdat gij zoudt verhoogd worden, overmits ik u het Evangelie Gods om niet verkondigd heb? 8Ik heb andere Gemeenten beroofd, bezoldiging van haar nemende, om u te bedienen; en als ik bij u tegenwoordig was en gebrek had, ben ik niemand lastig gevallen. 9Want mijn gebrek hebben de broeders vervuld, die van Macedonie kwamen; en ik heb mijzelven in alles gehouden zonder u te bezwaren, en zal mij nog alzo houden. 10De waarheid van Christus is in mij, dat deze roem in de gewesten van Achaje aan mij niet zal verhinderd worden. 11Waarom? Is het, omdat ik u niet liefheb? God weet het! 12Maar wat ik doe, dat zal ik nog doen, om de oorzaak af te snijden dengenen, die oorzaak hebben willen, opdat zij in hetgeen zij roemen, bevonden mochten worden gelijk als wij. 13Want zulke valse apostelen zijn bedriegelijke arbeiders, zich veranderende in apostelen van Christus. 14En het is geen wonder; want de satan zelf verandert zich in een engel des lichts. 15Zo is het dan niets groots, indien ook zijn dienaars zich veranderen, als waren zij dienaars der gerechtigheid; van welke het einde zal zijn naar hun werken. 16Ik zeg wederom, dat niemand mene, dat ik onwijs ben; doch zo niet, neemt mij dan aan als een onwijze, opdat ik ook een weinig moge roemen. 17Dat ik spreek, spreek ik niet naar den Heere, maar als in onwijsheid, in deze vasten grond der roeming. 18Dewijl velen roemen naar het vlees, zo zal ik ook roemen. 19Want gij verdraagt gaarne de onwijzen, dewijl gij wijs zijt. 20Want gij verdraagt het, zo u iemand dienstbaar maakt, zo u iemand opeet, zo iemand van u neemt, zo zich iemand verheft, zo u iemand in het aangezicht slaat. 21Ik zeg dit naar oneer, gelijk of wij zwak waren geweest; maar waarin iemand stout is (ik spreek in onwijsheid), daarin ben ik ook stout. 22Zijn zij Hebreen? Ik ook. Zijn zij Israelieten? Ik ook. Zijn zij het zaad van Abraham? Ik ook. 23Zijn zij dienaars van Christus? (ik spreek onwijs zijnde) ik ben boven hen; in arbeid overvloediger, in slagen uitnemender, in gevangenissen overvloediger, in doods gevaar menigmaal. 24Van de Joden heb ik veertig slagen min een, vijfmaal ontvangen. 25Driemaal ben ik met roeden gegeseld geweest, eens ben ik gestenigd, driemaal heb ik schipbreuk geleden, een gansen nacht en dag heb ik in de diepte doorgebracht. 26In het reizen menigmaal in gevaren van rivieren, in gevaren van moordenaars, in gevaren van mijn geslacht, in gevaren van de heidenen, in gevaren in de stad, in gevaren in de woestijn, in gevaren op de zee, in gevaren onder de valse broeders; 27In arbeid en moeite, in waken menigmaal, in honger en dorst, in vasten menigmaal, in koude en naaktheid. 28Zonder de dingen, die van buiten zijn, overvalt mij dagelijks de zorg van al de Gemeenten. 29Wie is er zwak, dat ik niet zwak ben? Wie wordt er geergerd, dat ik niet brande? 30Indien men moet roemen, zo zal ik roemen de dingen mijner zwakheid. 31De God en Vader van onzen Heere Jezus Christus, Die geprezen is in der eeuwigheid, weet, dat ik niet lieg. 32De stadhouder van den koning Aretas in Damaskus, bezette de stad der Damaskenen, willende mij vangen; 33En ik werd door een venster in een mand over den muur nedergelaten, en ontvlood zijn handen.
