1Want ons weet dat as ons aardse huis, die tent, afgebreek word, ons 'n gebou van God het, 'n huis wat nie met hande gemaak is nie, ewig in die hemele.Οἴδαμεν γὰρ ὅτι ἐὰν ἡ ἐπίγειος ἡμῶν οἰκία τοῦ σκήνους καταλυθῇ, οἰκοδομὴν ἐκ θεοῦ ἔχομεν οἰκίαν ἀχειροποίητον αἰώνιον ἐν τοῖς οὐρανοῖς.For we know that if the earthly tent we live in is dismantled, we have a building from God, an eternal house in heaven, not built by human hands. 2Want ook hierin sug ons, terwyl ons daarna verlang om ons woonplek wat uit die hemel is, daaroor aan te trek,καὶ γὰρ ἐν τούτῳ στενάζομεν, τὸ οἰκητήριον ἡμῶν τὸ ἐξ οὐρανοῦ ἐπενδύσασθαι ἐπιποθοῦντες,For in this tent we groan, longing to be clothed with our heavenly dwelling, 3as ons tog, wanneer ons beklee is, nie naak gevind sal word nie.

Sommige manuskripte lees: wanneer ons ontklee is, nie naak gevind sal word nie.

⸂εἴ γε⸃ καὶ ⸀ἐνδυσάμενοι οὐ γυμνοὶ εὑρεθησόμεθα.because when we are clothed, we will not be found naked. 4Want ons wat in die tent is, sug ook terwyl ons swaar gedruk word, omdat ons nie wil uittrek nie, maar daaroor wil aantrek, sodat wat sterflik is, deur die lewe verswelg kan word.καὶ γὰρ οἱ ὄντες ἐν τῷ σκήνει στενάζομεν βαρούμενοι ἐφʼ ᾧ οὐ θέλομεν ἐκδύσασθαι ἀλλʼ ἐπενδύσασθαι, ἵνα καταποθῇ τὸ θνητὸν ὑπὸ τῆς ζωῆς.For while we are in this tent, we groan under our burdens, because we do not wish to be unclothed but clothed, so that our mortality may be swallowed up by life. 5En Hy wat ons juis hiervoor toeberei het, is God, wat aan ons die waarborg van die Gees gegee het.ὁ δὲ κατεργασάμενος ἡμᾶς εἰς αὐτὸ τοῦτο θεός, ⸀ὁ δοὺς ἡμῖν τὸν ἀρραβῶνα τοῦ πνεύματος.And it is God who has prepared us for this very purpose and has given us the Spirit as a pledge of what is to come. 6Ons is dus altyd vol moed en weet dat ons, solank ons tuis is in die liggaam, weg is van die Here,Θαρροῦντες οὖν πάντοτε καὶ εἰδότες ὅτι ἐνδημοῦντες ἐν τῷ σώματι ἐκδημοῦμεν ἀπὸ τοῦ κυρίου,Therefore we are always confident, although we know that while we are at home in the body, we are away from the Lord. 7want ons wandel deur geloof, nie deur sig nie—

Of: voorkoms.

διὰ πίστεως γὰρ περιπατοῦμεν, οὐ διὰ εἴδους—For we walk by faith, not by sight. 8Ons het egter goeie moed en verkies eerder om uit die liggaam weg te wees en by die Here tuis te wees.θαρροῦμεν δὲ καὶ εὐδοκοῦμεν μᾶλλον ἐκδημῆσαι ἐκ τοῦ σώματος καὶ ἐνδημῆσαι πρὸς τὸν κύριον·We are confident, then, and would prefer to be away from the body and at home with the Lord. 9Daarom beywer ons ons ook, hetsy ons tuis is hetsy ons weg is, om vir Hom welgevallig te wees.διὸ καὶ φιλοτιμούμεθα, εἴτε ἐνδημοῦντες εἴτε ἐκδημοῦντες, εὐάρεστοι αὐτῷ εἶναι.So we aspire to please Him, whether we are at home in this body or away from it. 10Want ons almal moet geopenbaar word voor die regterstoel van Christus, sodat elkeen kan ontvang wat deur die liggaam gedoen is, volgens wat hy gedoen het, hetsy goed, hetsy sleg.τοὺς γὰρ πάντας ἡμᾶς φανερωθῆναι δεῖ ἔμπροσθεν τοῦ βήματος τοῦ Χριστοῦ, ἵνα κομίσηται ἕκαστος τὰ διὰ τοῦ σώματος πρὸς ἃ ἔπραξεν, εἴτε ἀγαθὸν εἴτε ⸀φαῦλον.For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive his due for the things done in the body, whether good or bad.

11Omdat ons dan die vrees van die Here ken, oorreed ons mense, maar voor God is ons openbaar; en ek hoop om ook in julle gewetens openbaar te wees.Εἰδότες οὖν τὸν φόβον τοῦ κυρίου ἀνθρώπους πείθομεν, θεῷ δὲ πεφανερώμεθα· ἐλπίζω δὲ καὶ ἐν ταῖς συνειδήσεσιν ὑμῶν πεφανερῶσθαι.Therefore, since we know what it means to fear the Lord, we try to persuade men. What we are is clear to God, and I hope it is clear to your conscience as well. 12Ons beveel onsself nie weer by julle aan nie, maar gee julle aanleiding tot roem oor ons, sodat julle iets kan hê teenoor dié wat op die uiterlike roem en nie op die hart nie.

Letterlik: in die gesig.

⸀οὐ πάλιν ἑαυτοὺς συνιστάνομεν ὑμῖν, ἀλλὰ ἀφορμὴν διδόντες ὑμῖν καυχήματος ὑπὲρ ἡμῶν, ἵνα ἔχητε πρὸς τοὺς ἐν προσώπῳ καυχωμένους καὶ ⸂μὴ ἐν⸃ καρδίᾳ.We are not commending ourselves to you again. Instead, we are giving you an occasion to be proud of us, so that you can answer those who take pride in appearances rather than in the heart. 13Want as ons buite onsself was, is dit vir God; as ons by ons verstand is, is dit vir julle.εἴτε γὰρ ἐξέστημεν, θεῷ· εἴτε σωφρονοῦμεν, ὑμῖν.If we are out of our mind, it is for God; if we are of sound mind, it is for you. 14Want die liefde van Christus dring ons, omdat ons dit beslis het: dat een vir almal gesterf het; dus het almal gesterf.

Of: die liefde vir Christus.

ἡ γὰρ ἀγάπη τοῦ Χριστοῦ συνέχει ἡμᾶς, κρίναντας τοῦτο ⸀ὅτι εἷς ὑπὲρ πάντων ἀπέθανεν· ἄρα οἱ πάντες ἀπέθανον·For Christ’s love compels us, because we are convinced that One died for all, therefore all died. 15en Hy het vir almal gesterf, sodat dié wat lewe, nie meer vir hulself lewe nie, maar vir Hom wat vir hulle gesterf het en opgewek is.καὶ ὑπὲρ πάντων ἀπέθανεν ἵνα οἱ ζῶντες μηκέτι ἑαυτοῖς ζῶσιν ἀλλὰ τῷ ὑπὲρ αὐτῶν ἀποθανόντι καὶ ἐγερθέντι.And He died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves, but for Him who died for them and was raised again.

16Dus ken ons van nou af niemand volgens die vlees nie; al het ons Christus ook volgens die vlees geken, tog ken ons nou nie meer so nie.Ὥστε ἡμεῖς ἀπὸ τοῦ νῦν οὐδένα οἴδαμεν κατὰ σάρκα· ⸀εἰ καὶ ἐγνώκαμεν κατὰ σάρκα Χριστόν, ἀλλὰ νῦν οὐκέτι γινώσκομεν.So from now on we regard no one according to the flesh. Although we once regarded Christ in this way, we do so no longer. 17Dus, as iemand in Christus is, is dit 'n nuwe skepping; die ou dinge het verbygegaan, kyk, nuwe dinge het ontstaan.

Sommige manuskripte lees: kyk, alles het nuut geword.

ὥστε εἴ τις ἐν Χριστῷ, καινὴ κτίσις· τὰ ἀρχαῖα παρῆλθεν, ἰδοὺ γέγονεν ⸀καινά·Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away. Behold, the new has come! 18Maar alles is uit God, wat ons met Homself versoen het deur Christus en aan ons die diens van die versoening gegee het,

Sommige manuskripte lees: deur Jesus Christus

τὰ δὲ πάντα ἐκ τοῦ θεοῦ τοῦ καταλλάξαντος ἡμᾶς ἑαυτῷ ⸀διὰ Χριστοῦ καὶ δόντος ἡμῖν τὴν διακονίαν τῆς καταλλαγῆς,All this is from God, who reconciled us to Himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: 19naamlik dat God in Christus besig was om die wêreld met Homself te versoen, deurdat Hy hulle oortredinge nie aan hulle toereken nie, en die woord van die versoening in ons neergelê het.ὡς ὅτι θεὸς ἦν ἐν Χριστῷ κόσμον καταλλάσσων ἑαυτῷ, μὴ λογιζόμενος αὐτοῖς τὰ παραπτώματα αὐτῶν, καὶ θέμενος ἐν ἡμῖν τὸν λόγον τῆς καταλλαγῆς.that God was reconciling the world to Himself in Christ, not counting men’s trespasses against them. And He has committed to us the message of reconciliation. 20Ons is dus gesante namens Christus, asof God deur ons 'n beroep doen; ons smeek namens Christus: “Laat julle met God versoen.”ὑπὲρ Χριστοῦ οὖν πρεσβεύομεν ὡς τοῦ θεοῦ παρακαλοῦντος διʼ ἡμῶν· δεόμεθα ὑπὲρ Χριστοῦ, καταλλάγητε τῷ θεῷ.Therefore we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were making His appeal through us. We implore you on behalf of Christ: Be reconciled to God. 21Hom wat geen sonde geken het nie, het Hy vir ons sonde gemaak, sodat ons in Hom geregtigheid van God kan word.⸀τὸν μὴ γνόντα ἁμαρτίαν ὑπὲρ ἡμῶν ἁμαρτίαν ἐποίησεν, ἵνα ἡμεῖς γενώμεθα δικαιοσύνη θεοῦ ἐν αὐτῷ.God made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God.
