For we rejoice, when we are weak, and ye are strong: this we also pray for, even your perfecting.

即便我们软弱，你们刚强，我们也欢喜；并且我们所求的，就是你们作完全人。

当我们软弱而你们刚强时，我们也欢喜。我们所祈求的是：你们能成为完全人。

当我们软弱而你们刚强时，我们也欢喜。我们所祈求的是：你们能成为完全人。

只要你们刚强，我们就是软弱也欢喜。我们为你们祈祷，盼望你们做纯全的人。

当我们软弱、你们刚强的时候，我们就欢喜；我们所求的，就是要你们完全。

实际上，当我们软弱而你们刚强的时候，我们就欢喜；我们还祈求这一点：就是你们得以完全。

即便我們軟弱，你們剛強，我們也歡喜；並且我們所求的，就是你們作完全人。

當我們軟弱而你們剛強時，我們也歡喜。我們所祈求的是：你們能成為完全人。

我弱而爾強、我則喜、所求者爾之完全也、

我柔、而爾有能、則喜、余所願者、爾德備也、

我弱而爾強、我則喜、我所願者、爾之全備也、

若能以吾之弱、證爾之強；此正吾之所樂也。蓋吾所為馨香禱祝者欲見爾曹之成完人耳。

We are glad whenever we are weak but you are strong; and our prayer is that you may be fully restored.

I’m glad when I am weak but you are strong. I pray that there will be no more problems among you.

For we are glad when we are weak and you are strong. Your restoration is what we pray for.

We are glad to seem weak if it helps show that you are actually strong. We pray that you will become mature.

We rejoice when we are weak and you are strong. We also pray that you become fully mature.

For we rejoice when we ourselves are weak, but you are strong; this we also pray for, that you become mature.

For we are glad when we are weak and you are strong. And this also we pray, that you may be made complete.

In fact, we rejoice when we are weak and you are strong. We also pray that you become fully mature.

For we are glad, when we are weak, and ye are strong: and this also we wish,[ even] your perfection.

For we rejoice whenever we are weak, but you are strong. And we pray for this: that you may become fully qualified.

For we rejoice when we are weak and you are strong. We also pray for this: your becoming perfect.

Finally, brethren, farewell. Be perfected; be comforted; be of the same mind; live in peace: and the God of love and peace shall be with you.

We are fools for Christ’s sake, but ye are wise in Christ; we are weak, but ye are strong; ye have glory, but we have dishonor.

night and day praying exceedingly that we may see your face, and may perfect that which is lacking in your faith?

And the God of all grace, who called you unto his eternal glory in Christ, after that ye have suffered a little while, shall himself perfect, establish, strengthen you.

On behalf of such a one will I glory: but on mine own behalf I will not glory, save in my weaknesses.For if I should desire to glory, I shall not be foolish; for I shall speak the truth: but I forbear, lest any man should account of me above that which he seeth me to be, or heareth from me.And by reason of the exceeding greatness of the revelations, that I should not be exalted overmuch, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, a messenger of Satan to buffet me, that I should not be exalted overmuch.Concerning this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me.And he hath said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my power is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my weaknesses, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.Wherefore I take pleasure in weaknesses, in injuries, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ’s sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.

Now we pray to God that ye do no evil; not that we may appear approved, but that ye may do that which is honorable, though we be as reprobate.For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth.

If I must needs glory, I will glory of the things that concern my weakness.

Having therefore these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all defilement of flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.

for the perfecting of the saints, unto the work of ministering, unto the building up of the body of Christ:till we all attain unto the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a fullgrown man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:

to the general assembly and church of the firstborn who are enrolled in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect,

make you perfect in every good thing to do his will, working in us that which is well- pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be the glory for ever and ever. Amen.

Epaphras, who is one of you, a servant of Christ Jesus, saluteth you, always striving for you in his prayers, that ye may stand perfect and fully assured in all the will of God.

Wherefore leaving the doctrine of the first principles of Christ, let us press on unto perfection; not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God,

whom we proclaim, admonishing every man and teaching every man in all wisdom, that we may present every man perfect in Christ;

Not that I have already obtained, or am already made perfect: but I press on, if so be that I may lay hold on that for which also I was laid hold on by Christ Jesus.Brethren, I count not myself yet to have laid hold: but one thing I do, forgetting the things which are behind, and stretching forward to the things which are before,I press on toward the goal unto the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.Let us therefore, as many as are perfect, be thus minded: and if in anything ye are otherwise minded, this also shall God reveal unto you:

that the man of God may be complete, furnished completely unto every good work.
