WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Итак я рассудил сам в себе не приходить к вам опять с огорчением.
1 ESTO pues determiné para conmigo, no venir otra vez á vosotros con tristeza.
1 But I determined this for myself, that I would not come to you again in sorrow.
2 Ибо если я огорчаю вас, то кто обрадует меня, как не тот, кто огорчен мною?
2 Porque si yo os contristo, ¿quién será luego el que me alegrará, sino aquel á quien yo contristare?
2 For if I make you grieve, then who will make me glad but he who is made to grieve by me?
3 Это самое и писал я вам, дабы, придя, не иметь огорчения от тех, о которых мне надлежало радоваться: ибо я во всех вас уверен, что моя радость есть радость и для всех вас.
3 Y esto mismo os escribí, porque cuando llegare no tenga tristeza sobre tristeza de los que me debiera gozar; confiando en vosotros todos que mi gozo es [el] de todos vosotros.
3 And I wrote this very thing to you, so that when I came, I wouldn’t have sorrow from them of whom I ought to rejoice; having confidence in you all that my joy would be shared by all of you.
4 От великой скорби и стесненного сердца я писал вам со многими слезами, не для того, чтобы огорчить вас, но чтобы вы познали любовь, какую я в избытке имею к вам.
4 Porque por la mucha tribulación y angustia del corazón os escribí con muchas lágrimas; no para que fueseis contristados, mas para que supieseis cuánto más amor tengo para con vosotros.
4 For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote to you with many tears, not that you should be made to grieve, but that you might know the love that I have so abundantly for you.
5 Если же кто огорчил, то не меня огорчил, но частью, — чтобы не сказать много, — и всех вас.
5 Que si alguno [me] contristó, no me contristó á mí, sino en parte, por no cargaros, á todos vosotros.
5 But if any has caused sorrow, he has caused sorrow not to me, but in part (that I not press too heavily) to you all.
6 Для такого довольно сего наказания от многих,
6 Bástale al tal esta reprensión [hecha] de muchos;
6 This punishment which was inflicted by the many is sufficient for such a one;
7 так что вам лучше уже простить его и утешить, дабы он не был поглощен чрезмерною печалью.
7 Así que, al contrario, vosotros más bien lo perdonéis y consoléis, porque no sea el tal consumido de demasiada tristeza.
7 so that, on the contrary, you should rather forgive him and comfort him, lest by any means such a one should be swallowed up with his excessive sorrow.
8 И потому прошу вас оказать ему любовь.
8 Por lo cual os ruego que confirméis el amor para con él.
8 Therefore I beg you to confirm your love toward him.
9 Ибо я для того и писал, чтобы узнать на опыте, во всем ли вы послушны.
9 Porque también por este fin [os] escribí, para tener experiencia de vosotros si sois obedientes en todo.
9 For to this end I also wrote, that I might know the proof of you, whether you are obedient in all things.
10 А кого вы в чем прощаете, того и я; ибо и я, если в чем простил кого, простил для вас от лица Христова,
10 Y al que vosotros perdonareis, yo también: porque también yo lo que he perdonado, si algo he perdonado, por vosotros [lo he hecho] en persona de Cristo;
10 Now I also forgive whomever you forgive anything. For if indeed I have forgiven anything, I have forgiven that one for your sakes in the presence of Christ,
11 чтобы не сделал нам ущерба сатана, ибо нам не безызвестны его умыслы.
11 Porque no seamos engañados de Satanás: pues no ignoramos sus maquinaciones.
11 that no advantage may be gained over us by Satan, for we are not ignorant of his schemes.
12 Придя в Троаду для благовествования о Христе, хотя мне и отверста была дверь Господом,
12 Cuando vine á Troas para el evangelio de Cristo, aunque me fué abierta puerta en el Señor,
12 Now when I came to Troas for the Good News of Christ, and when a door was opened to me in the Lord,
13 я не имел покоя духу моему, потому что не нашел там брата моего Тита; но, простившись с ними, я пошел в Македонию.
13 No tuve reposo en mi espíritu, por no haber hallado á Tito mi hermano: así, despidiéndome de ellos, partí para Macedonia.
13 I had no relief for my spirit, because I didn’t find Titus my brother, but taking my leave of them, I went out into Macedonia.
14 Но благодарение Богу, Который всегда дает нам торжествовать во Христе и благоухание познания о Себе распространяет нами во всяком месте.
14 Mas á Dios gracias, el cual hace que siempre triunfemos en Cristo Jesús, y manifiesta el olor de su conocimiento por nosotros en todo lugar.
14 Now thanks be to God who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and reveals through us the sweet aroma of his knowledge in every place.
15 Ибо мы Христово благоухание Богу в спасаемых и в погибающих:
15 Porque para Dios somos buen olor de Cristo en los que se salvan, y en los que se pierden:
15 For we are a sweet aroma of Christ to God in those who are being saved and in those who perish:
16 для одних запах смертоносный на смерть, а для других запах живительный на жизнь. И кто способен к сему?
16 A éstos ciertamente olor de muerte para muerte; y á aquéllos olor de vida para vida. Y para estas cosas ¿quién es suficiente?
16 to the one a stench from death to death, to the other a sweet aroma from life to life. Who is sufficient for these things?
17 Ибо мы не повреждаем слова Божия, как многие, но проповедуем искренно, как от Бога, пред Богом, во Христе.
17 Porque no somos como muchos, mercaderes falsos de la palabra de Dios: antes con sinceridad, como de Dios, delante de Dios, hablamos en Cristo.
17 For we are not as so many, peddling the word of God. But as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God, we speak in Christ.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
These words seem on the one hand to be unworthy of Paul, if because of a brother's absence he threw away so great an opportunity of saving; and on the other, to hang apart from the context. What then?

… strain also the Apostle Paul, inasmuch as he had a good conscience, said to the Corinthians: "For we are not as many, who corrupt the Word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ;" "We have injured no man, corrupted no man, circumvented no man."
To the one we are the savor of life unto life, to the other the savor of death unto death: and who is sufficient for these things?" The lesson of the holy Gospel before us affords us the opportunity of so speaking of that savor, that we on our part may give worthy utterance, and you diligent heed, to what …

Now if ye grieve at hearing these things, I thank you much, for "who is he that maketh me glad, but he which is made sorry by me?" Do not then ever cease to grieve and be vexed for them, for the sorrow that comes of such things will be to you a beginning of a change for the better.

Then on the nostrils; that receiving the sacred ointment ye may say, We are to God a sweet savour of Christ, in them that are saved.
