II Corinthians 13

ecce tertio hoc venio ad vos in ore duorum vel trium testium stabit omne verbum

This is the third time I am coming to you. In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established.

praedixi et praedico ut praesens bis et nunc absens his qui ante peccaverunt et ceteris omnibus quoniam si venero iterum non parcam

I told you before, and foretell you, as if I were present, the second time; and being absent now I write to them which heretofore have sinned, and to all other, that, if I come again, I will not spare:

an experimentum quaeritis eius qui in me loquitur Christi qui in vos non infirmatur sed potens est in vobis

Since ye seek a proof of Christ speaking in me, which to you-ward is not weak, but is mighty in you.

nam et si crucifixus est ex infirmitate sed vivit ex virtute Dei nam et nos infirmi sumus in illo sed vivemus cum eo ex virtute Dei in vobis

For though he was crucified through weakness, yet he liveth by the power of God. For we also are weak in him, but we shall live with him by the power of God toward you.

vosmet ipsos temptate si estis in fide ipsi vos probate an non cognoscitis vos ipsos quia Christus Iesus in vobis est nisi forte reprobi estis

Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?

spero autem quod cognoscetis quia nos non sumus reprobi

But I trust that ye shall know that we are not reprobates.

oramus autem Deum ut nihil mali faciatis non ut nos probati pareamus sed ut vos quod bonum est faciatis nos autem ut reprobi simus

Now I pray to God that ye do no evil; not that we should appear approved, but that ye should do that which is honest, though we be as reprobates.

non enim possumus aliquid adversus veritatem sed pro veritate

For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth.

gaudemus enim quando nos infirmi sumus vos autem potentes estis hoc et oramus vestram consummationem

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

ideo haec absens scribo ut non praesens durius agam secundum potestatem quam Dominus dedit mihi in aedificationem et non in destructionem

Therefore I write these things being absent, lest being present I should use sharpness, according to the power which the Lord hath given me to edification, and not to destruction.

de cetero fratres gaudete perfecti estote exhortamini idem sapite pacem habete et Deus dilectionis et pacis erit vobiscum

Finally, brethren, farewell. Be perfect, be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace shall be with you.

salutate invicem in osculo sancto

Greet one another with an holy kiss.

<13-12> salutant vos sancti omnes

All the saints salute you.

<13-13> gratia Domini nostri Iesu Christi et caritas Dei et communicatio Sancti Spiritus cum omnibus vobis amen

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen. The second epistle to the Corinthians was written from Philippi, a city of Macedonia, by Titus and Lucas.
