Paulos, an apostle of Y'shua the Mashiyach by the will of Elohim, and Timotheos a brother, to the assembly of Elohim that is in Qorinthos, and to all the holy ones that are in all Achaia.

Grace be with you, and peace, from Elohim our Father and from our Master Y'shua the Mashiyach.

Blessed is Elohim, the Father of our Master Y'shua the Mashiyach, the Father of mercies and Elohim of all comfort,

who comforts us in all our afflictions, so that we also may be able to comfort those who are in every affliction with the comfort with which we are comforted by Elohim.

For as the sufferings of the Mashiyach abound in us, so also our comfort abounds through the Mashiyach.

And if we are afflicted, it is for your comfort and for your life that we are afflicted; and if we are comforted, it is so that you may be comforted, and that there may be in you an eagerness to endure those sufferings which we also suffer.

And our hope concerning you is firm, for we know that if you share in the sufferings, you also share in the consolation.

But we want you to know, our brothers, about the affliction that came upon us in Asia, that we were afflicted exceedingly beyond our strength, so that our life was near to being destroyed.

And we passed a sentence of death upon ourselves, that we might not have confidence in ourselves, but in Elohim who raises the dead;

who rescued us from near death, and again we hope that he will rescue us,

by the help of your prayers on our behalf, so that his gift toward us may be a favor done for the sake of many, and many may give thanks to him on our behalf.

For our boasting is this, the testimony of our mind, that in simplicity and in purity and by the grace of Elohim we have conducted ourselves in the world, and not in the wisdom of the flesh, and especially toward you.

We are not writing other things to you, but those that you know and also acknowledge. And I am confident that you will acknowledge them to the end.

as you have also acknowledged in part that we are your boasting, just as you also are ours, in the day of our Master Y'shua the Mashiyach.

And in this confidence I was wanting beforehand to come to you, that you might receive grace a second time;

and pass by you into Macedonia, and again come to you from Macedonia, and so you would accompany me to Yehuda.

When therefore I purposed this, did I purpose it as one who is hasty? Or are the things I purpose of the flesh, so that there should be in them Yes, yes, and No, no?

Elohim is faithful, that our word to you was not Yes and No.

For the Son of Elohim, Y'shua the Mashiyach, who was preached to you by us, namely, by me, by Silvanus, and by Timotheus, was not Yes and No; but it was Yes in him.

For all the promises of Elohim in him, the Mashiyach, are Yes; for which cause, we through him give our Amen, to the glory of Elohim.

Now it is Elohim who establishes us, with you, in the Mashiyach, and has anointed us,

and has sealed us, and has given the earnest of his Ruach in our hearts.

Moreover, I call Elohim for a witness on my soul, that it was in order to spare you that I did not come to Corinth.

Not that we are masters over your faith, but we are helpers of your joy; for it is by faith you stand.
