1It is not expedient for me doubtless to glory. I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord.2I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;) such an one caught up to the third heaven.3And I knew such a man, (whether in the body, or out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;)4How that he was caught up into paradise, and heard unspeakable words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter.5Of such an one will I glory: yet of myself I will not glory, but in mine infirmities.6For though I would desire to glory, I shall not be a fool; for I will say the truth: but now I forbear, lest any man should think of me above that which he seeth me to be, or that he heareth of me.7And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure.8For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me.9And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.10Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.11I am become a fool in glorying; ye have compelled me: for I ought to have been commended of you: for in nothing am I behind the very chiefest apostles, though I be nothing.12Truly the signs of an apostle were wrought among you in all patience, in signs, and wonders, and mighty deeds.13For what is it wherein ye were inferior to other churches, except it be that I myself was not burdensome to you? forgive me this wrong.14Behold, the third time I am ready to come to you; and I will not be burdensome to you: for I seek not yours, but you: for the children ought not to lay up for the parents, but the parents for the children.15And I will very gladly spend and be spent for you; though the more abundantly I love you, the less I be loved.16But be it so, I did not burden you: nevertheless, being crafty, I caught you with guile.17Did I make a gain of you by any of them whom I sent unto you?18I desired Titus, and with him I sent a brother. Did Titus make a gain of you? walked we not in the same spirit? walked we not in the same steps?19Again, think ye that we excuse ourselves unto you? we speak before God in Christ: but we do all things, dearly beloved, for your edifying.20For I fear, lest, when I come, I shall not find you such as I would, and that I shall be found unto you such as ye would not: lest there be debates, envyings, wraths, strifes, backbitings, whisperings, swellings, tumults:21And lest, when I come again, my God will humble me among you, and that I shall bewail many which have sinned already, and have not repented of the uncleanness and fornication and lasciviousness which they have committed.

الرّسول بولس يختبر السّماء الثالثة

1إِنَّهُ لاَ يُوافِقُنِي أَنْ أَفْتَخِرَ، فَإِنِّي آتِي إِلَى مَنَاظِرِ الرَّبِّ وَإِعْلاَنَاتِهِ.2أَعْرِفُ إِنْسَاناً فِي المَسِيحِ، قَبْلَ أَرْبَعَ عَشَرَةَ سَنَةً، أَفِي الْجَسَدِ؟ لَسْتُ أَعْلَمُ، أَمْ خَارِجَ الْجَسَدِ؟ لَسْتُ أَعْلَمُ، اللهُ يَعْلَمُ، اخْتُطِفَ هَذَا إِلَى السَّمَاءِ الثَّالِثَةِ.3وَأَعْرِفُ هَذَا الإِنْسَانَ، أَفِي الْجَسَدِ أَمْ خَارِجَ الْجَسَدِ، لَسْتُ أَعْلَمُ، اللهُ يَعْلَمُ،4أَنَّهُ اخْتُطِفَ إِلَى الْفِرْدَوْسِ وَسَمِعَ كَلِمَاتٍ لاَ يُنْطَقُ بِهَا وَلاَ يَسُوغُ لإِنْسَانٍ أَنْ يَتَكَلَّمَ بِهَا.5مِنْ جِهَةِ هَذَا أَفْتَخِرُ وَلَكِنْ مِنْ جِهَةِ نَفْسِي لاَ أَفْتَخِرُ إِلاَّ بِضَعَفَاتِي.6فَإِنِّي إِنْ أَرَدْتُ أَنْ أَفْتَخِرَ لاَ أَكُونُ غَبِيّاً، لأَنِّي أَقُولُ الْحَقَّ، وَلَكِنِّي أَتَحَاشَى لِئَلاَّ يَظُنَّ أَحَدٌ مِنْ جِهَتِي فَوْقَ مَا يَرَانِي أَوْ يَسْمَعُ مِنِّي.7وَلِئَلاَّ أَرْتَفِعَ بِفَرْطِ الإِعْلاَنَاتِ، أُعْطِيتُ شَوْكَةً فِي الْجَسَدِ، مَلاَكَ الشَّيْطَانِ، لِيَلْطِمَنِي لِئَلاَّ أَرْتَفِعَ.8مِنْ جِهَةِ هَذَا تَضَرَّعْتُ إِلَى الرَّبِّ ثَلاَثَ مَرَّاتٍ أَنْ يُفَارِقَنِي.9فَقَالَ لِي: تَكْفِيكَ نِعْمَتِي، لأَنَّ قُوَّتِي فِي الضَّعْفِ تُكْمَلُ. فَبِكُلِّ سُرُورٍ أَفْتَخِرُ بِالْحَرِيِّ فِي ضَعَفَاتِي لِكَيْ تَحُلَّ عَلَيَّ قُوَّةُ المَسِيحِ.10لِذَلِكَ أُسَرُّ بِالضَّعَفَاتِ وَالشَّتَائِمِ وَالضَّرُورَاتِ وَالاِضْطِهَادَاتِ وَالضِّيقَاتِ لأَجْلِ المَسِيحِ، لأَنِّي حِينَمَا أَنَا ضَعِيفٌ فَحِينَئِذٍ أَنَا قَوِيٌّ.

محبة الرّسول لكنيسة كورنثوس

11قَدْ صِرْتُ غَبِيّاً وَأَنَا أَفْتَخِرُ، أَنْتُمْ أَلْزَمْتُمُونِي، لأَنَّهُ كَانَ يَنْبَغِي أَنْ أُمْدَحَ مِنْكُمْ إِذْ لَمْ أَنْقُصْ شَيْئاً عَنْ فَائِقِي الرُّسُلِ، وَإِنْ كُنْتُ لَسْتُ شَيْئاً.12إِنَّ عَلاَمَاتِ الرَّسُولِ صُنِعَتْ بَيْنَكُمْ فِي كُلِّ صَبْرٍ بِآيَاتٍ وَعَجَائِبَ وَقُوَّاتٍ.13لأَنَّهُ مَا هُوَ الَّذِي نَقَصْتُمْ عَنْ سَائِرِ الْكَنَائِسِ، إِلاَّ أَنِّي أَنَا لَمْ أُثَقِّلْ عَلَيْكُمْ؟ سَامِحُونِي بِهَذَا الظُّلْمِ.14هُوَذَا المَرَّةُ الثَّالِثَةُ أَنَا مُسْتَعِدٌّ أَنْ آتِيَ إِلَيْكُمْ وَلاَ أُثَقِّلَ عَلَيْكُمْ، لأَنِّي لَسْتُ أَطْلُبُ مَا هُوَ لَكُمْ بَلْ إِيَّاكُمْ، لأَنَّهُ لاَ يَنْبَغِي أَنَّ الأَوْلاَدَ يَذْخَرُونَ لِلْوَالِدِينَ بَلِ الْوَالِدُونَ لِلأَوْلاَدِ.15وَأَمَّا أَنَا فَبِكُلِّ سُرُورٍ أُنْفِقُ وَأُنْفَقُ لأَجْلِ أَنْفُسِكُمْ، وَإِنْ كُنْتُ كُلَّمَا أُحِبُّكُمْ أَكْثَرَ أُحَبُّ أَقَلَّ.16فَلْيَكُنْ. أَنَا لَمْ أُثَقِّلْ عَلَيْكُمْ، لَكِنْ إِذْ كُنْتُ مُحْتَالاً أَخَذْتُكُمْ بِمَكْرٍ؟17هَلْ طَمِعْتُ فِيكُمْ بِأَحَدٍ مِنَ الَّذِينَ أَرْسَلْتُهُمْ إِلَيْكُمْ؟18طَلَبْتُ إِلَى تِيطُسَ وَأَرْسَلْتُ مَعَهُ الأَخَ. هَلْ طَمِعَ فِيكُمْ تِيطُسُ؟ أَمَا سَلَكْنَا بِذَاتِ الرُّوحِ الْوَاحِدِ، أَمَا بِذَاتِ الْخَطَوَاتِ الْوَاحِدَةِ.

الإجتهاد للتوبة

19أَتَظُنُّونَ أَيْضاً أَنَّنَا نَحْتَجُّ لَكُمْ؟ أَمَامَ اللهِ فِي المَسِيحِ نَتَكَلَّمُ، وَلَكِنَّ الْكُلَّ، أَيُّهَا الأَحِبَّاءُ، لأَجْلِ بُنْيَانِكُمْ.20لأَنِّي أَخَافُ إِذَا جِئْتُ أَنْ لاَ أَجِدَكُمْ كَمَا أُرِيدُ وَأُوجَدَ مِنْكُمْ كَمَا لاَ تُرِيدُونَ، أَنْ تُوجَدَ خُصُومَاتٌ وَمُحَاسَدَاتٌ وَسَخَطَاتٌ وَتَحَزُّبَاتٌ وَمَذَمَّاتٌ وَنَمِيمَاتٌ وَتَكَبُّرَاتٌ وَتَشْوِيشَاتٌ،21أَنْ يُذِلَّنِي إِلَهِي عِنْدَكُمْ، إِذَا جِئْتُ أَيْضاً وَأَنُوحُ عَلَى كَثِيرِينَ مِنَ الَّذِينَ أَخْطَأُوا مِنْ قَبْلُ وَلَمْ يَتُوبُوا عَنِ النَّجَاسَةِ وَالزِّنَا وَالْعَهَارَةِ الَّتِي فَعَلُوهَا.
