Notas sobre este texto (2)
- The Old Testament is translated from the Hebrew, not from the Septuagint read in the Orthodox Church; there are no deuterocanonical books.
- Katharevousa (learned 19th-century Greek), as in the CrossWire module (text from theword.gr).

WEB World English Bible (clásica, con deuterocanónicos)
1 Να καυχώμαι βέβαια δεν μοι συμφέρει· διότι θέλω ελθεί εις οπτασίας και αποκαλύψεις Κυρίου.
1 It is doubtless not profitable for me to boast, but I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord.
2 Γνωρίζω άνθρωπον εν Χριστώ προ ετών δεκατεσσάρων, είτε εντός του σώματος δεν εξεύρω, είτε εκτός του σώματος δεν εξεύρω, ο Θεός εξεύρει· ότι ηρπάγη ο τοιούτος έως τρίτου ουρανού.
2 I know a man in Christ who was caught up into the third heaven fourteen years ago—whether in the body, I don’t know, or whether out of the body, I don’t know; God knows.
3 Και γνωρίζω τον τοιούτον άνθρωπον, είτε εντός του σώματος είτε εκτός του σώματος δεν εξεύρω, ο Θεός εξεύρει,
3 I know such a man (whether in the body, or outside of the body, I don’t know; God knows),
4 ότι ηρπάγη εις τον παράδεισον και ήκουσεν ανεκλάλητα λόγια, τα οποία δεν συγχωρείται εις άνθρωπον να λαλήση.
4 how he was caught up into Paradise and heard unspeakable words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter.
5 Υπέρ του τοιούτου θέλω καυχηθή, υπέρ δε εμαυτού δεν θέλω καυχηθή ειμή εις τας ασθενείας μου.
5 On behalf of such a one I will boast, but on my own behalf I will not boast, except in my weaknesses.
6 Διότι εάν θελήσω να καυχηθώ, δεν θέλω είσθαι άφρων, επειδή αλήθειαν θέλω ειπεί· συστέλλομαι όμως μη στοχασθή τις εις εμέ ανώτερόν τι αφ' ό,τι με βλέπει ή ακούει τι εξ εμού.
6 For if I would desire to boast, I will not be foolish; for I will speak the truth. But I refrain, so that no man may think more of me than that which he sees in me or hears from me.
7 Και διά να μη υπεραίρωμαι διά την υπερβολήν των αποκαλύψεων, μοι εδόθη σκόλοψ εις την σάρκα, άγγελος Σατάν διά να με ραπίζη, διά να μη υπεραίρωμαι.
7 By reason of the exceeding greatness of the revelations, that I should not be exalted excessively, a thorn in the flesh was given to me: a messenger of Satan to torment me, that I should not be exalted excessively.
8 Περί τούτου τρίς παρεκάλεσα τον Κύριον διά να απομακρυνθή απ' εμού·
8 Concerning this thing, I begged the Lord three times that it might depart from me.
9 και μοι είπεν· Αρκεί εις σε η χάρις μου· διότι η δύναμίς μου εν αδυναμία δεικνύεται τελεία. Με άκραν λοιπόν ευχαρίστησιν θέλω καυχηθή μάλλον εις τας αδυναμίας μου, διά να κατοικήση εν εμοί η δύναμις του Χριστού.
9 He has said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Most gladly therefore I will rather glory in my weaknesses, that the power of Christ may rest on me.
10 Όθεν ευαρεστούμαι εις τας αδυναμίας, εις τας ύβρεις, εις τας ανάγκας, εις τους διωγμούς, εις τας στενοχωρίας, υπέρ του Χριστού· διότι όταν ήμαι αδύνατος, τότε είμαι δυνατός.
10 Therefore I take pleasure in weaknesses, in injuries, in necessities, in persecutions, and in distresses, for Christ’s sake. For when I am weak, then am I strong.
11 Έγεινα άφρων καυχώμενος· σεις με ηναγκάσατε. Διότι έπρεπεν εγώ να συνιστώμαι από σάς· επειδή εις ουδέν υπήρξα κατώτερος των πρωτίστων αποστόλων, αν και ήμαι μηδέν.
11 I have become foolish in boasting. You compelled me, for I ought to have been commended by you, for I am in no way inferior to the very best apostles, though I am nothing.
12 Τα μεν σημεία του αποστόλου ενηργήθησαν μεταξύ σας εν πάση υπομονή, διά θαυμάτων και τεραστίων και δυνάμεων.
12 Truly the signs of an apostle were worked among you in all perseverance, in signs and wonders and mighty works.
13 Διότι κατά τι εμείνατε κατώτεροι των λοιπών εκκλησιών, ειμή ότι αυτός εγώ δεν σας κατεβάρυνα; συγχωρήσατέ μοι την αδικίαν ταύτην.
13 For what is there in which you were made inferior to the rest of the assemblies, unless it is that I myself was not a burden to you? Forgive me this wrong!
14 Ιδού, τρίτην φοράν είμαι έτοιμος να έλθω προς εσάς, και δεν θέλω σας καταβαρύνει· διότι δεν ζητώ τα υμών, αλλ' υμάς. Διότι δεν χρεωστούσι τα τέκνα να θησαυρίζωσι διά τους γονείς, αλλ' οι γονείς διά τα τέκνα.
14 Behold, this is the third time I am ready to come to you, and I will not be a burden to you; for I seek not your possessions, but you. For the children ought not to save up for the parents, but the parents for the children.
15 Εγώ δε με άκραν χαράν θέλω δαπανήσει και όλως δαπανηθή υπέρ των ψυχών σας, αν και ενώ σας αγαπώ περισσότερον, αγαπώμαι ολιγώτερον.
15 I will most gladly spend and be spent for your souls. If I love you more abundantly, am I loved the less?
16 Έστω όμως, εγώ δεν σας κατεβάρυνα, αλλά πανούργος ων, σας επίασα με δόλον.
16 Even so, I myself didn’t burden you. But you might say that being crafty, I caught you with deception.
17 Μήπως διά τινός εξ εκείνων, τους οποίους έστειλα προς εσάς, δι' αυτού επλεονέκτησα από σας;
17 Did I take advantage of you by anyone of those whom I have sent to you?
18 Παρεκάλεσα τον Τίτον, και μετ' αυτού απέστειλα τον αδελφόν· μήπως ο Τίτος επλεονέκτησέ τι από σας; ουχί με το αυτό πνεύμα περιεπατήσαμεν; ουχί εις τα αυτά ίχνη;
18 I exhorted Titus, and I sent the brother with him. Did Titus take any advantage of you? Didn’t we walk in the same spirit? Didn’t we walk in the same steps?
19 Πάλιν νομίζετε ότι απολογούμεθα προς εσάς; ενώπιον του Θεού λαλούμεν εν Χριστώ· πράττομεν δε τα πάντα, αγαπητοί, διά την οικοδομήν σας.
19 Again, do you think that we are excusing ourselves to you? In the sight of God we speak in Christ. But all things, beloved, are for your edifying.
20 Διότι φοβούμαι μήπως ελθών δεν σας εύρω οποίους θέλω, και εγώ ευρεθώ εις εσάς οποίον δεν θέλετε, μήπως ήναι μεταξύ σας έριδες, ζηλοτυπίαι, θυμοί, μάχαι, καταλαλιαί, ψιθυρισμοί, αλαζονείαι, ακαταστασίαι,
20 For I am afraid that perhaps when I come, I might find you not the way I want to, and that I might be found by you as you don’t desire, that perhaps there would be strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, factions, slander, whisperings, proud thoughts, or riots,
21 μήπως πάλιν όταν έλθω προς εσάς, με ταπεινώση ο Θεός μου και πενθήσω πολλούς των προαμαρτησάντων και μη μετανοησάντων διά την ακαθαρσίαν και πορνείαν και ασέλγειαν, την οποίαν έπραξαν.
21 that again when I come my God would humble me before you, and I would mourn for many of those who have sinned before now, and not repented of the uncleanness, sexual immorality, and lustfulness which they committed.

Lo que dijeron los Padres
Pasajes de los Padres de la Iglesia que comentan o citan este capítulo, tal como aparecen en la edición de Schaff (traducciones inglesas del siglo XIX, de dominio público). Los textos están en inglés.
Cómo se eligieron
«Comentario» es el comienzo de una homilía o exposición sobre este capítulo (homilías de san Juan Crisóstomo; tratados, sermones y comentarios a los Salmos de san Agustín). «Cita» es una frase en la que las notas de la propia edición identifican la cita de un versículo de este capítulo; solo se conserva si el texto coincide con el versículo. Solo se usan obras de autoría segura. Los Salmos siguen la numeración hebrea (Agustín usa la de los Setenta: su Salmo 50 es aquí el 51).
What is this? Doth he who has spoken such great things say, [It is not expedient] "doubtless to glory?" as if he had said nothing?

For that there are spiritual creatures in the heavens, all the Scriptures loudly proclaim; and Paul expressly testifies that there are spiritual things when he declares that he was caught up into the third heaven, and again, that he was carried away to paradise, and heard unspeakable words which it is not lawful for a man to utter.
… ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God; and expressing not only his sorrow, but bitter lamentation over some who had formally sinned and had not repented of their uncleanness and fornications. If these emotions and affections, arising as they do from the love of what is …

… when in much danger and affliction, often besought God that the temptations might depart from him: nevertheless God regarded not his request, but his profit, and to signify this He said, "My grace is sufficient for thee, for my strength is made perfect in weakness." So that before He hath told him the reason, He benefits him against his will, …

For Peter was there, who carrieth the keys of heaven: and nothing wonderful, for Paul was there, who was caught up to the third heaven, and into Paradise, and heard unspeakable words, which it is not lawful far a man to utter.
