| 哥林多後書-2 Corinthians 第 12 章 |
| 12:1 | 誇口固然無益，但我是不得已的。我要來說主的異象和啟示。 To boast is necessary, though indeed not expedient; yet I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord. |
| 12:2 | 我認得一個在基督裡的人，十四年前，這樣的一位被提，直到第三層天裡，（或在身內，我不曉得，或在身外，我也不曉得，只有神曉得。） I know a man in Christ, fourteen years ago (whether in the body I do not know, or outside the body I do not know; God knows) such a one was caught away to the third heaven. |
| 12:3 | 並且我認得這樣一個人，（或在身內，或在身外，我都不曉得，只有神曉得，） And I know such a man (whether in the body or outside the body, I do not know; God knows), |
| 12:4 | 他被提進樂園裡，聽見不能言傳的話語，是人不可說的。 That he was caught away into Paradise and heard unspeakable words, which it is not allowed for a man to speak. |
| 12:5 | 為這樣的一位，我要誇口，但是為我自己，除了我的軟弱以外，我並不誇口。 On behalf of such a one I will boast, but on behalf of myself I will not boast, except in my weaknesses. |
| 12:6 | 我即使願意誇口，也不是愚妄，因為我必說真話，只是我惜口不說，恐怕有人評估我，過於他在我身上所看見的，或從我所聽見的。 For if I desire to boast, I will not be foolish, for I will speak the truth; but I refrain lest anyone account of me something above what he sees me to be or hears from me. |
| 12:7 | 又恐怕我因所得啟示的超越，就過於高抬自己，所以有一根刺，就是撒但的使者，加在我的肉體上，為要攻擊我，免得我過於高抬自己。 And because of the transcendence of the revelations, in order that I might not be exceedingly lifted up, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, a messenger of Satan, that he might buffet me, in order that I might not be exceedingly lifted up. |
| 12:8 | 為這事，我三次求過主，叫這刺離開我。 Concerning this I entreated the Lord three times that it might depart from me. |
| 12:9 | 祂對我說，我的恩典夠你用的，因為我的能力，是在人的軟弱上顯得完全。所以我極其喜歡誇我的軟弱，好叫基督的能力覆庇我。 And He has said to me, My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is perfected in weakness. Most gladly therefore I will rather boast in my weaknesses that the power of Christ might tabernacle over me. |
| 12:10 | 因此，我為基督的緣故，就以軟弱、凌辱、貧困、逼迫、困苦為可喜悅的，因我什麼時候軟弱，什麼時候就有能力了。 Therefore I am well pleased in weaknesses, in insults, in necessities, in persecutions and distresses, on behalf of Christ; for when I am weak, then I am powerful. |
| 12:11 | 我成了愚妄人，是你們強逼我的。我本該為你們所推薦，因為我即使算不了什麼，也沒有一點趕不上那些超級的使徒。 I have become foolish; you yourselves have compelled me. For it is I who should have been commended by you; for in nothing am I inferior to the super-apostles, even though I am nothing. |
| 12:12 | 我使徒的記號，確已在你們中間，以全般的忍耐，藉著神跡、奇事和異能，完全顯出來了。 Indeed the signs of an apostle were wrought among you in all endurance by signs and wonders and works of power. |
| 12:13 | 因為除了我自己不累著你們以外，你們還有什麼事不及其餘的召會？這不公之處，你們饒恕我吧！ For what is there in which you were treated in a manner inferior to the rest of the churches, except that I myself was not a burden to you? Graciously forgive me this injustice! |
| 12:14 | 看哪，這是我第三次預備好，要到你們那裡去，也必不累著你們，因我所尋求的不是你們的東西，乃是你們自己。因為兒女不該為父母積蓄，父母乃該為兒女積蓄。 Behold, this third time I am ready to come to you, and I will not be a burden; for I do not seek what is yours but you. For the children ought not to store up for the parents, but the parents for the children. |
| 12:15 | 我極其喜歡為你們花費，並完全花上自己。難道我越發愛你們，就越發少得你們的愛麼？ But I, I will most gladly spend and be utterly spent on behalf of your souls. If I love you more abundantly, am I loved less? |
| 12:16 | 罷了！我並沒有加給你們擔子，你們卻有人說，我是狡猾詭詐，用詭計牢籠你們。 But let it be so! I did not burden you; but, as some of you say, being crafty, I took you by guile. |
| 12:17 | 我所差到你們那裡去的人，我藉著其中一個佔過你們的便宜麼？ Did I take advantage of you through anyone whom I have sent to you? |
| 12:18 | 我勸了提多，又差了那位弟兄同去。提多佔過你們的便宜麼？我們行事，不是在同一的靈裡麼？不是在同一的腳蹤裡麼？ I entreated Titus and sent with him the brother. Titus did not take advantage of you, did he? Did we not walk in the same spirit? In the same steps? |
| 12:19 | 你們一向以為我們是向你們分訴，我們乃是在基督裡當著神面前說話。親愛的，一切的事都是為建造你們。 All this time you have been thinking that we are defending ourselves to you. Before God in Christ we speak; but all things, beloved, are for your building up. |
| 12:20 | 我怕我來的時候，或許見到你們不合我所想要的，你們見到我也不合你們所想要的；又怕有爭競、嫉妒、惱怒、私圖好爭、誹謗、讒言、自高自大、混亂的事； For I fear that perhaps when I come, I may find you not such as I wish, and I may be found by you not such as you wish; that perhaps there may be strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, selfish ambitions, slanders, whisperings, demonstrations of being puffed up, tumults; |
| 12:21 | 且怕我再來的時候，我的神在你們面前卑屈我，我還要為那許多從前犯罪，還沒有悔改他們所行污穢淫亂邪蕩之事的人哀慟。 That when I come again my God may humble me before you and I may mourn over many who have sinned before and who have not repented of the uncleanness and fornication and licentiousness which they have practiced. |
