Chap. I. By his troubles in Asia he comforteth them. and (against his Aduersaries the false apostles of the Ievves) alleageth to them the testimonie of his ovvne and also of their conscience, 17 ansvvering them that obiected lightnes against him, for not comming to Corinth according to his promis.

1   Pavl an Apostle of Iesvs Christ by the vvil of God, and Timothee our brother: to the Church of God that is at Corinth, vvith al the saincts that are in al Achaia.

2   Grace vnto you and peace from God our father, and from our Lord Iesvs Christ.

3    noteBlessed be the God and father of our Lord Iesvs Christ, the father of mercies, and God of al comfort,

4   vvho comforteth vs in al our tribulation: that vve also may be able to comfort them that are in all distresse, note by the exhortation vvherevvith vve also are exhorted of God.

5   For as the09Q1149 passions of Christ abound in vs: so also by Christ doth our09Q1150 comfort abound.

6   And vvhether vve be in tribulation, for your exhortation and saluation: vvhether vve be exhorted, for your exhortation and saluation, vvhich vvorketh the toleration of the same passions vvhich vve also doe suffer:

7   and our hope is firme for you: knovving that as you are partakers of the passions, so shal you be of the consolation also. &cross4;

8   For vve vvil not haue you ignorant brethren: concerning our tribulation, vvhich happened in Asia, that vve vvere pressed aboue measure aboue our povver, so that it vvas tedious vnto vs euen to liue.

9   But vve in our selues had the ansvver of death, that vve be not trusting in our selues, but in

-- --

God vvho raiseth vp the dead,

10   vvho hath deliuered and doth deliuer vs out of so great dangers: in vvhom vve hope that he vvil yet also deliuer vs,

11   you09Q1151 helping vvithal in praier for vs, that09Q1152 by many mens persons, thankes for that gift vvhich is in vs, may be giuen by many in our behalfe.

12   For our glorie is this, the testimonie of our conscience, that in simplicity and sincerity of God, and not in carnal vvised&obar;, but in the grace of God vve haue conuersed in this vvorld: and more aboundantly tovvards you.

13   For vve vvrite no other things to you, then that you haue read and knovv. And I hope that you shal knovv vnto the ende:

14   as also you haue knovven vs in part, that vve are09Q1153 your glorie, as you also ours in the day of our Lord Iesvs Christ.

15   And in this confidence I vvould first haue come to you, that you might haue a second grace:

16   and by you passe into Macedonia, and againe from Macedonia come to you, and of you be brought on my vvay into Ievvrie.

17   Vvhereas then I vvas thus minded, did I vse lightenes? Or the things that I minde, do I minde according to the flesh, that there be vvith me, It is and It is not?

18   But God is faithful, because our preaching vvhich vvas to you, there is not in it, 09Q1154 It is, and, It is not.

19   For the Sonne of God Iesvs Christ, vvho by vs vvas preached among you, by me and Syluanus and Timothee, vvas not, It is, and, It is not. but, It is, vvas in him.

20   For al the promises of God that are, in him It is: therfore also by him, Amen to God, vnto our glorie.

21   And he that confirmeth vs vvith you in Christ, and that hath anointed vs, God:

22   vvho also09Q1155 hath sealed vs, and giuen the pledge of the Spirit in our hartes.

23   And I call God to vvitnesse vpon my soul, that sparing you, I came not any more to Corinth,

24   09Q1156not because vve ouerrule your faith: but, vve are helpers of your ioy. for in the faith you stand.
