我籲上帝鑒吾心、為不爾責、故不至哥林多、

我呼吁神给我的心作见证，我没有往哥林多去是为要宽容你们。

我指着我的性命求告上帝作证，我没有再往哥林多去是为了要宽容你们。

我指着我的性命求告神作证，我没有再往哥林多去是为了要宽容你们。

我求上帝为我作证：我没有去哥林多，是为了宽容你们。

我呼求神给我作证，我没有再到哥林多来，是要宽容你们。

我求告神为我的灵魂见证：我没有再往哥林多去，是因为顾惜你们。

我呼籲神給我的心作見證，我沒有往哥林多去是為要寬容你們。

我指着我的性命求告上帝作證，我沒有再往哥林多去是為了要寬容你們。

我指着我的性命求告神作證，我沒有再往哥林多去是為了要寬容你們。

我求上帝為我作證：我沒有去哥林多，是為了寬容你們。

我呼求神給我作證，我沒有再到哥林多來，是要寬容你們。

我指着我的性命呼求上帝作證，我沒有再往哥林多去、是顧惜你們。

我求告神為我的靈魂見證：我沒有再往哥林多去，是因為顧惜你們。

我籲上帝以我心作證、我不適哥林多者、寬容爾也、

我不復至哥林多、惟因寛容爾曹、我籲天主為我心作證、

吾呼天主為證、吾之所以未來格林多者、乃為爾等着想、不欲予爾等以難堪耳。

I call God as my witness— and I stake my life on it— that it was in order to spare you that I did not return to Corinth.

I call God to be my witness. May he take my life if I’m lying. I wanted to spare you, so I didn’t return to Corinth.

But I call God to witness against me— it was to spare you that I refrained from coming again to Corinth.

Now I call upon God as my witness that I am telling the truth. The reason I didn’t return to Corinth was to spare you from a severe rebuke.

I call on God as a witness, on my life, that it was to spare you that I did not come to Corinth.

But I call God as witness to my soul, that it was to spare you that I did not come again to Corinth.

Moreover I call God as witness against my soul, that to spare you I came no more to Corinth.

But I call God for a witness upon my soul, that to spare you I forbare to come unto Corinth.

I call on God as a witness, on my life, that it was to spare you that I did not come to Corinth.

Moreover I call God for a record upon my soul, that to spare you I came not as yet unto Corinth.

Now I appeal to God as my witness, that to spare you I did not come again to Corinth.

But I call God for a witness to my soul, that I didn’t come to Corinth to spare you.

我一心以其子福音事上帝、上帝監我、緬懷爾不置、

我所書者、上帝知我無偽、

爾何所欲、欲我至以杖叩爾乎、抑以柔惠之意撫爾乎、

吾先言而再言之、如與爾晤對、惟今暌違、故書達犯罪者、及眾人、余復至時、必不恕之、

余暌違時、以書遺爾、使我與爾晤對、不事嚴法、依主所賜之權、非以敗人、乃以輔德、

我言不諛、是爾所知、我不外廉而內貪、上帝可鑒、

爾曹既歸服、我已設備、將譴責諸逆者、爾獨觀外貌乎、如有自恃為基督僕者、則當復思、若彼為基督僕、我亦為基督僕焉、主賜我權、非以敗人、乃以輔德、我雖愈誇、吾亦無愧、蓋余不欲以書驚爾、有言我書嚴厲、及晤對時、身柔言鄙、然彼當思、暌違之日、書言如何、則晤對所行必若是、

其不累爾、何歟、豈不愛爾乎、上帝知之、

我體耶穌基督心、戀慕爾曹、上帝鑒之、

余恐至時、爾不能副我所望、我不能副爾所望、恐有爭鬥、媢嫉、忿怒、朋黨、毀謗、隱刺、妄誇、混亂、

恆久可頌吾主耶穌基督之父上帝、知吾不偽矣、

吾欲再至爾所、不令爾我懷憂、意已決矣、若我令爾憂、則爾之憂、既為我所使、此外誰使我樂乎、昔我以書達爾、恐來時所當使我樂者、轉令我憂耳、蓋我樂即爾樂、吾知之素矣、

交彼與撒但、以苦其身、俾於吾主耶穌基督臨日、救其靈魂、

勿使我近時儼然、蓋有謂我純以血氣行事者、我意當儼然待之、

吾宗基督言真而不偽、我心感聖神為證、

有若許米乃、亞力山大、此二人我交撒但、俾毋謗讟、

上帝言出必行、我指之而誓、凡所語爾、不敢今是後非、
