2. list Korinťanom

1 (CPDV) But I myself, Paul, am begging you, through the meekness and modesty of Christ. I am certainly, by appearances, lowly among you, yet I have confidence in you, even while I am absent.
1 (ROH) Ale sám ja Pavel vás prosím krotkou tichosťou a prívetivosťou Krista, ktorý som, ako hovoria, do tvári pokorný medzi vami, ale neprítomný smelý voči vám.

2 (CPDV) So I am petitioning you, lest I be bold, when present, with that bold confidence that I am considered to have by certain ones who judge us as if we were walking according to the flesh.
2 (ROH) Ale vás prosím, žeby som sa prítomný nemusel osmeliť v sebadôvere, v ktorej myslím odvážiť sa na niektorých, ktorí myslia o nás, ako čo by sme chodili podľa tela.

3 (CPDV) For though we walk in the flesh, we do not battle according to the flesh.
3 (ROH) Lebo pravda chodíme v tele, ale nevojujeme podľa tela -

4 (CPDV) For the weapons of our battles are not carnal, yet still they are powerful with God, unto the destruction of fortifications: tearing down every counsel
4 (ROH) lebo zbrane nášho vojovania nie sú telesné, ale mocné Bohu na borenie pevností -,

5 (CPDV) and height that extols itself contrary to the wisdom of God, and leading every intellect into the captivity of obedience to Christ,
5 (ROH) ktorí boríme úmysly a každú vysokosť, ktorá sa povyšuje proti známosti Božej, a zajímame v plen každú myseľ do poslušnosti Krista

6 (CPDV) and standing ready to repudiate every disobedience, when your own obedience has been fulfilled.
6 (ROH) hotoví súc pomstiť každý neposluch, keď sa naplní vaša poslušnosť.

7 (CPDV) Consider the things that are in accord with appearances. If anyone trusts that by these things he belongs to Christ, let him reconsider this within himself. For just as he belongs to Christ, so also do we.
7 (ROH) Či na to, čo je pred očami, hľadíte? Jestli ktosi dôveruje v sebe, že je Kristov, nech zase to myslí u seba, že jako je on Kristov, tak sme aj my Kristovi.

8 (CPDV) And if I were even to glory somewhat more about our authority, which the Lord has given to us for your edification, and not for your destruction, I should not be ashamed.
8 (ROH) Lebo keby som sa i niečo viacej pochválil ohľadne našej moci, ktorú nám dal Pán - budovať a nie vás boriť, nebudem zahanbený,

9 (CPDV) But let it not be said that I am scaring you by means of epistles.
9 (ROH) aby sa nezdalo, jako keby som vás chcel strašiť listami.

10 (CPDV) For they say: “His epistles, indeed, are weighty and strong. But his bodily presence is weak, and his speech is contemptible.”
10 (ROH) Lebo vraj jeho listy sú ťažké a mocné, ale prítomnosť tela slabá a reč mizerná.

11 (CPDV) Let someone like this realize that whatever we are in word through epistles, while absent: we are much the same in deed, while present.
11 (ROH) Taký človek nech myslí toto: že jakí sme v slove listami, keď sme neprítomní, takí budeme aj prítomní v skutku.

12 (CPDV) For we would not dare to interpose or compare ourselves with certain ones who commend themselves. But we measure ourselves by ourselves, and we compare ourselves with ourselves.
12 (ROH) Lebo sa neopovažujeme pripočítať seba alebo sa prirovnať niektorým z tých, ktorí sami seba odporúčajú. Ale oni sami seba sami sebou merajúc a sami seba sami so sebou porovnávajúc nerozumejú ničomu.

13 (CPDV) Thus, we will not glory beyond our measure, but rather according to the measure of the limit which God has measured out to us, a measure which extends even to you.
13 (ROH) Ale my sa nebudeme chváliť do bezmierna, ale podľa miery meradla, ktorým nám Bôh nameral mieru, aby sme dospeli až i k vám.

14 (CPDV) For we are not overextending ourselves, as if we are not able to reach as far as you are able. For we have gone even as far as you have in the Gospel of Christ.
14 (ROH) Lebo sa nevystierame nad mieru, jako keby sme neboli dospeli po vás, lebo až i po vás sme prví stihli s evanjeliom Kristovým

15 (CPDV) We are not glorying immeasurably over the labors of others. Instead, we hold on to the hope of your growing faith, so as to be magnified in you, according to our own limits, but in abundance,
15 (ROH) nechváliac sa do bezmierna cudzími prácami, ale jako takí, ktorí máme nádej, že keď porastie vaša viera, budeme zveličení medzi vami podľa svojho meradla do hojnosti,

16 (CPDV) and even so as to evangelize in those places that are beyond you, not in order to glory in the measure of others, but rather in those things which have already been prepared.
16 (ROH) aby sme zvestovali evanjelium aj v oblastiach ležiacich za vami, a nie aby sme sa chválili cudzím meradlom hotovým.

17 (CPDV) But whoever glories, let him glory in the Lord.
17 (ROH) Ale ten, kto sa chváli, nech sa chváli Pánom.

18 (CPDV) For it is not he who commends himself who is approved, but rather he whom God commends.
18 (ROH) Lebo nie ten, kto sám seba odporúča, je dokázaný, ale ten, koho Pán odporúča.
