1:1 凭神旨意,作基督耶稣使徒的保罗,和弟兄提摩太,写信给在哥林多神的召会,同着在全亚该亚的众圣徒:
Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God, and Timothy the brother, to the church of God which is in Corinth, with all the saints who are in the whole of Achaia:
1:2 愿恩典与平安,从神我们的父,并主耶稣基督归与你们。
Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
1:3 我们主耶稣基督的神与父,就是那怜恤人的父,和赐诸般安慰的神,是当受颂赞的;
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassions and God of all comfort;
1:4 祂在我们一切的患难中安慰我们,叫我们能用自己从神所受的安慰,安慰那些在各样患难中的人。
Who comforts us in all our affliction that we may be able to comfort those who are in every affliction through the comforting with which we ourselves are comforted by God.
1:5 因为基督的苦难怎样满溢到我们身上,照样我们所受的安慰,也借着基督而洋溢。
For even as the sufferings of the Christ abound unto us, so through the Christ our comfort also abounds.
1:6 我们或是受患难,是为了你们受安慰,得拯救;或是受安慰,也是为了你们受安慰;这安慰叫你们能忍受我们所受的同样苦难。
But whether we are afflicted, it is for your comforting and salvation; or whether we are comforted, it is for your comforting, which operates in the endurance of the same sufferings which we also suffer.
1:7 我们为你们所存的盼望是确定的,知道你们既是同受苦难,也必照样同受安慰。
And our hope for you is firm, knowing that as you are partakers of the sufferings, so also you are of the comfort.
1:8 弟兄们,关于我们在亚西亚所遭遇的患难,我们不愿意你们不知道,就是我们被压太重,力不能胜,甚至连活命的指望都绝了,
For we do not want you to be ignorant, brothers, of our affliction which befell us in Asia, that we were excessively burdened, beyond our power, so that we despaired even of living.
1:9 自己里面也断定是必死的,叫我们不信靠自己,只信靠那叫死人复活的神;
Indeed we ourselves had the response of death in ourselves, that we should not base our confidence on ourselves but on God, who raises the dead;
1:10 祂曾救我们脱离那极大的死亡,并且仍要救我们,我们指望祂将来还要救我们,
Who has delivered us out of so great a death, and will deliver us; in whom we have hoped that He will also yet deliver us,
1:11 只要你们也为着我们以祈求配合帮助,好叫许多人因我们借着许多人所得的恩赐,为我们献上感谢。
If you also help in this by petition on our behalf, that for the gift to us through many, thanks may be given by many persons on our behalf.
1:12 我们所夸的,是我们的良心见证我们凭着神的单纯和纯诚,在世为人,不靠属肉体的智慧,乃靠神的恩典,对你们更是这样。
For our boasting is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in singleness and sincerity of God, not in fleshly wisdom but in the grace of God, we have conducted ourselves in the world, and more abundantly toward you.
1:13 我们写给你们的,并不外乎你们所诵读,甚至所明白的,我也盼望你们能明白到底,
For no other things do we write to you than what you read or even know; and I hope that you will know unto the end,
1:14 正如你们已经有几分明白我们:我们乃是你们的夸耀,好像在我们主耶稣的日子,你们也是我们的夸耀一样。
Even as also you know us in part, that we are your boast, just as you also are ours in the day of our Lord Jesus.
