13 Through the actual evidence of this service they give
tifereth to vuvh for your confession and subjection to the
Besorah of Moshiach, and for your liberal distribution to
them, and to all men;
14 And by their tefillot for you, who long after you for
the great unmerited favor of vuvh in you.
15 Hodu also be to vuvh for His incomparable gift. 5974

Now I Shaul myself appeal to you by the meekness
and gentleness of Moshiach, who in presence am lowly
when among you, but being absent still have confidence
towards you:
2 But I appeal to you, not to be troubled when I arrive,
since I think I will have to be bold and brave against
some, who think that we walk according to the flesh.
3 For though we are walking in the flesh, we do not war
according to the flesh:
4 For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but
mighty through our tvkt to the pulling down of
strongholds;
5 Casting down imaginations, and every high human
matter that exalts itself against the da’at of vuvh, taking
captive every thought to be obedient to Moshiach;
6 And we are ready to revenge all disobedience among
some, when your obedience is complete. 5975
7 Do you look on things after the outward appearance? If
any man trusts that he belongs to Moshiach, let him
rethink and understand, that, as he belongs to Moshiach,
even so we belong to Moshiach.
8 For even if I should boast more of our authority, that
vuvh has given us, not for your destruction but for your
edification, I should not be ashamed:
9 I am hesitant so that I may not terrify you by my letter.
10 For his letters, they say, are weighty and powerful; but
his bodily presence is weak, and his speech is weak.
11 Let the ones who think this understand, that, such as
we are in word by letter when we are absent, so will we
be also in action when we are present.
12 For we dare not count, or compare ourselves with
those who are proud of, or who commend, themselves, for
they measure themselves by themselves, and comparing
themselves among themselves, are not wise. 5976
13 But we will not boast of things outside our limits, but
according to the limits of the authority that vuvh has
distributed to us, the limit needed to reach out even to
you.
14 For we stretch not ourselves beyond our limits of
authority, as if we did not ever reach you: for we have
come all the way to you also by proclaiming the Besorah
of Moshiach:
15 Not boasting of things beyond our limited measure,
that is, of other men’s labors; but having tikvah, that as
your emunah is increased, we also shall be increased by
you, according to our limits among you,
16 And so we shall proclaim the Besorah in the regions
beyond you, so as not to boast in another man’s limited
authority, or what others have accomplished.
17 But he that boasts, let him boast about vuvh.
18 For not he that praises himself is approved, but whom
the Master vuvh praises.
11
I would that you could bear with me a little in my
folly: and indeed you are bearing with me.
QORINTYAH BET - SECOND CORINTHIANS

2 For I am jealous over you with the jealousy of vuvh: for
I have given you in marriage to one Husband, that I may
present you as an innocent virgin to Moshiach.
3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled
Chavah through his tricks, so your minds should also be
corrupted away from the simplicity that is in Moshiach.
4 For when someone comes and proclaims another
gauvh, whom we have not proclaimed, or if you receive
another ruach, which you have not before received, or
another Besorah, which you have not before accepted,
sometimes you still put up with it!
5 For I suppose I am not inferior to the most distinguished
shlichim.
6 But though I may be unskilled in speech, 5977 yet not in
da’at; for we have been fully transparent and open among
you in all things.
7 Have I committed an offense in humbling myself that
you might be exalted, because I have proclaimed to you
the Besorah of vuvh without pay?
8 I robbed other Yisraelite congregations, taking
assistance from them, to do you tov service.
9 And when I was present with you, and was in lack, I
was a burden to no man: for that which was lacking for
me the Yisraelite brothers who came from Makedonia
supplied: and in all things I have kept myself from being
burdensome to you, and so will I continue to keep myself.
10 As the emet of Moshiach is in me, no man shall stop
me from this boasting in the regions of Achayah.
11 Why? Because I don’t love you? vuvh knows I do.
12 But what I do, that I will do, that I may cut off any
opportunity from those who desire opportunity; that in
whatever they boast, they may not be found equal to us.
13 For such are false shlichim, deceitful workers,
transforming themselves into the shlichim of the
Moshiach.
14 And no marvel; for s.a.tan himself is transformed into
a malach of light.
15 Therefore it is no great thing if s.a.tan’s avadim also
become transformed into the avadim of tzedakah; whose
end shall be according to their deeds.
16 I say again, Let no man think me to be a fool; if
otherwise, yet still as a fool then receive me, that I may
boast myself a little.
17 That which I speak here, I speak it not according to
vuvh, but as it were foolishly, in this confidence of
boasting.
18 Seeing that many boast after the flesh, I will
boast also.
19 For you listen to and put up with fools, despite you
yourselves being wise.
20 For you allow them to dominate you, even if a man
brings you into bondage, or if a man devours you, or if a
man takes from you, or if a man exalts himself, or if a
man hits you in the face.
21 I speak this as concerning reproach, as though we have
been weak. But in things that others are bold – I speak
foolishly – I am bold also.
22 Are they Ivrim? So am I. Are they Yisraelites? So am
I. Are they the zera of Avraham? So am I!
23 Are they avadim of Moshiach? – I speak as a fool – I
am even more than them; in labors more abundant, in
beatings above my limit, in prison more frequently, in
near-death experiences more often.
