¹And working together also we call upon [you] that ye receive not in vain the grace of God —

¹ܘܐܝܟ ܡܥܕܪܢܐ ܒܥܝܢܢ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܕܠܐ ܬܤܬܪܩ ܒܟܘܢ ܛܝܒܘܬܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܕܩܒܠܬܘܢ ܀

²for He saith, `In an acceptable time I did hear thee, and in a day of salvation I did help thee, lo, now [is] a well-accepted time; lo, now, a day of salvation,` —

²ܐܡܪ ܓܝܪ ܕܒܙܒܢܐ ܡܩܒܠܐ ܥܢܝܬܟ ܘܒܝܘܡܐ ܕܚܝܐ ܥܕܪܬܟ ܗܐ ܗܫܐ ܙܒܢܐ ܡܩܒܠܐ ܘܗܐ ܗܫܐ ܝܘܡܐ ܕܚܝܐ ܀

³in nothing giving any cause of offence, that the ministration may be not blamed,

³ܠܡܐ ܒܡܕܡ ܬܬܠܘܢ ܠܐܢܫ ܥܠܬܐ ܕܬܘܩܠܬܐ ܕܠܐ ܢܗܘܐ ܡܘܡܐ ܒܬܫܡܫܬܢ ܀

⁴but in everything recommending ourselves as God`s ministrants; in much patience, in tribulations, in necessities, in distresses,

⁴ܐܠܐ ܒܟܠ ܡܕܡ ܢܚܘܐ ܢܦܫܢ ܕܡܫܡܫܢܐ ܚܢܢ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܒܡܤܝܒܪܢܘܬܐ ܤܓܝܐܬܐ ܒܐܘܠܨܢܐ ܒܐܢܢܩܤ ܒܚܒܘܫܝܐ ܀

⁵in stripes, in imprisonments, in insurrections, in labours, in watchings, in fastings,

⁵ܒܢܓܕܐ ܒܐܤܘܪܐ ܒܫܓܘܫܝܐ ܒܠܐܘܬܐ ܒܫܗܪܐ ܒܨܘܡܐ ܀

⁶in pureness, in knowledge, in long-suffering, in kindness, in the Holy Spirit, in love unfeigned,

⁶ܒܕܟܝܘܬܐ ܒܝܕܥܬܐ ܒܢܓܝܪܘܬ ܪܘܚܐ ܒܒܤܝܡܘܬܐ ܒܪܘܚܐ ܕܩܘܕܫܐ ܒܚܘܒܐ ܕܠܐ ܢܟܠܐ ܀

⁷in the word of truth, in the power of God, through the armour of the righteousness, on the right and on the left,

⁷ܒܡܠܬܐ ܕܩܘܫܬܐ ܒܚܝܠܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܒܙܝܢܐ ܕܙܕܝܩܘܬܐ ܕܒܝܡܝܢܐ ܘܒܤܡܠܐ ܀

⁸through glory and dishonour, through evil report and good report, as leading astray, and true;

⁸ܒܫܘܒܚܐ ܘܒܨܥܪܐ ܒܩܘܠܤܐ ܘܒܓܘܢܝܐ ܐܝܟ ܡܛܥܝܢܐ ܘܫܪܝܪܐ ܀

⁹as unknown, and recognized; as dying, and lo, we live; as chastened, and not put to death;

⁹ܐܝܟ ܠܐ ܝܕܝܥܐ ܘܝܕܝܥܝܢܢ ܐܝܟ ܡܝܬܝܢܢ ܘܗܐ ܚܝܝܢ ܚܢܢ ܐܝܟ ܕܡܬܪܕܝܢܢ ܘܠܐ ܡܝܬܝܢܢ ܀

¹⁰as sorrowful, and always rejoicing; as poor, and making many rich; as having nothing, and possessing all things.

¹⁰ܐܝܟ ܕܟܪܝܐ ܠܢ ܘܒܟܠܙܒܢ ܚܕܝܢܢ ܐܝܟ ܡܤܟܢܐ ܘܠܤܓܝܐܐ ܡܥܬܪܝܢܢ ܐܝܟ ܕܡܕܡ ܠܝܬ ܠܢ ܘܟܠ ܡܕܡ ܐܚܝܕܝܢܢ ܀

¹¹Our mouth hath been open unto you, O Corinthians, our heart hath been enlarged!

¹¹ܦܘܡܢ ܦܬܝܚ ܗܘ ܠܘܬܟܘܢ ܩܘܪܢܬܝܐ ܘܠܒܢ ܪܘܝܚ ܀

¹²ye are not straitened in us, and ye are straitened in your [own] bowels,

¹²ܠܐ ܐܠܝܨܝܬܘܢ ܒܢ ܐܠܝܨܝܬܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܒܪܚܡܝܟܘܢ ܀

¹³and [as] a recompense of the same kind, (as to children I say [it],) be ye enlarged — also ye!

¹³ܐܝܟ ܕܠܒܢܝܐ ܕܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܦܘܪܥܘܢܝ ܚܘܒܠܝ ܕܠܘܬܟܘܢ ܘܪܘܚܘ ܚܘܒܟܘܢ ܠܘܬܝ ܀

¹⁴Become not yoked with others — unbelievers, for what partaking [is there] to righteousness and lawlessness?

¹⁴ܘܠܐ ܬܗܘܘܢ ܒܢܝ ܙܘܓܐ ܠܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܠܐ ܡܗܝܡܢܝܢ ܐܝܕܐ ܓܝܪ ܫܘܬܦܘܬܐ ܐܝܬ ܠܙܕܝܩܘܬܐ ܥܡ ܥܘܠܐ ܐܘ ܐܝܢܐ ܚܘܠܛܢܐ ܐܝܬ ܠܢܗܝܪܐ ܥܡ ܚܫܘܟܐ ܀

¹⁵and what fellowship to light with darkness? and what concord to Christ with Belial? or what part to a believer with an unbeliever?

¹⁵ܐܘ ܐܝܕܐ ܫܠܡܘܬܐ ܐܝܬ ܠܡܫܝܚܐ ܥܡ ܤܛܢܐ ܐܘ ܐܝܕܐ ܡܢܬܐ ܐܝܬ ܠܕܡܗܝܡܢ ܥܡ ܕܠܐ ܡܗܝܡܢ ܀

¹⁶and what agreement to the sanctuary of God with idols? for ye are a sanctuary of the living God, according as God said — `I will dwell in them, and will walk among [them], and I will be their God, and they shall be My people,

¹⁶ܐܝܕܐ ܕܝܢ ܐܘܝܘܬܐ ܐܝܬ ܠܗܝܟܠܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܥܡ ܕܫܐܕܐ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܗܝܟܠܗ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܚܝܐ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܐܡܝܪ ܕܐܥܡܪ ܒܗܘܢ ܘܐܗܠܟ ܒܗܘܢ ܘܐܗܘܐ ܐܠܗܗܘܢ ܘܗܢܘܢ ܢܗܘܘܢ ܠܝ ܥܡܐ ܀

¹⁷wherefore, come ye forth out of the midst of them, and be separated, saith the Lord, and an unclean thing do not touch, and I — I will receive you,

¹⁷ܡܛܠ ܗܢܐ ܦܘܩܘ ܡܢ ܒܝܢܬܗܘܢ ܘܐܬܦܪܫܘ ܡܢܗܘܢ ܐܡܪ ܡܪܝܐ ܘܠܛܡܐܐ ܠܐ ܬܬܩܪܒܘܢ ܘܐܢܐ ܐܩܒܠܟܘܢ ܀

¹⁸and I will be to you for a Father, and ye — ye shall be to Me for sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.`

¹⁸ܘܐܗܘܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܠܐܒܐ ܘܐܢܬܘܢ ܬܗܘܘܢ ܠܝ ܠܒܢܝܐ ܘܠܒܢܬܐ ܐܡܪ ܡܪܝܐ ܕܟܠ ܐܚܝܕ ܀
