1
I wish that you would bear with me in a little foolishness, but indeed you do bear with me.
2
For I am jealous over you with a godly jealousy. For I married you to one husband, that I might present you as a pure virgin to Christ.
3
But I am afraid that somehow, as the serpent deceived Eve in his craftiness, so your minds might be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.
4
For if he who comes preaches another Jesus, whom we did not preach, or if you receive a different spirit, which you did not receive, or a different "good news", which you did not accept, you put up with that well enough.
5
For I reckon that I am not at all behind the very best apostles.
6
But though I am unskilled in speech, yet I am not unskilled in knowledge. No, in every way we have been revealed to you in all things.
7
Or did I commit a sin in humbling myself that you might be exalted, because I preached to you God's Good News free of charge?
8
I robbed other assemblies, taking wages from them that I might serve you.
9
When I was present with you and was in need, I wasn't a burden on anyone, for the brothers, when they came from Macedonia, supplied the measure of my need. In everything I kept myself from being burdensome to you, and I will continue to do so.
10
As the truth of Christ is in me, no one will stop me from this boasting in the regions of Achaia.
11
Why? Because I don't love you? God knows.
12
But what I do, that I will do, that I may cut off occasion from them that desire an occasion, that in which they boast, they may be found even as we.
13
For such men are false apostles, deceitful workers, masquerading as Christ's apostles.
14
And no wonder, for even Satan masquerades as an angel of light.
15
It is no great thing therefore if his servants also masquerade as servants of righteousness, whose end will be according to their works.
Les souffrances endurées par Paul en tant qu'apôtre
16
I say again, let no one think me foolish. But if so, yet receive me as foolish, that I also may boast a little.
17
That which I speak, I don't speak according to the Lord, but as in foolishness, in this confidence of boasting.
18
Seeing that many boast after the flesh, I will also boast.
19
For you bear with the foolish gladly, being wise.
20
For you bear with a man, if he brings you into bondage, if he devours you, if he takes you captive, if he exalts himself, if he strikes you on the face.
21
I speak by way of disparagement, as though we had been weak. Yet however any is bold (I speak in foolishness), I am bold also.
22
Are they Hebrews? So am I. Are they Israelites? So am I. Are they the seed of Abraham? So am I.
23
Are they servants of Christ? (I speak as one beside himself) I am more so; in labors more abundantly, in prisons more abundantly, in stripes above measure, in deaths often.
24
Five times from the Jews I received forty stripes minus one.
25
Three times I was beaten with rods. Once I was stoned. Three times I suffered shipwreck. I have been a night and a day in the deep.
26
I have been in travels often, perils of rivers, perils of robbers, perils from my countrymen, perils from the Gentiles, perils in the city, perils in the wilderness, perils in the sea, perils among false brothers;
27
in labor and travail, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, and in cold and nakedness.
28
Besides those things that are outside, there is that which presses on me daily, anxiety for all the assemblies.
29
Who is weak, and I am not weak? Who is caused to stumble, and I don't burn with indignation?
30
If I must boast, I will boast of the things that concern my weakness.
31
The God and Father of the Lord Jesus Christ, he who is blessed forevermore, knows that I don't lie.
32
In Damascus the governor under King Aretas guarded the city of the Damascenes desiring to arrest me.
33
Through a window I was let down in a basket by the wall, and escaped his hands.

Ὄφελον ἀνείχεσθέ μου μικρόν τι ἀφροσύνης· ἀλλὰ καὶ ἀνέχεσθέ μου.
2
ζηλῶ γὰρ ὑμᾶς θεοῦ ζήλῳ, ἡρμοσάμην γὰρ ὑμᾶς ἑνὶ ἀνδρὶ παρθένον ἁγνὴν παραστῆσαι τῷ Χριστῷ·
3
φοβοῦμαι δὲ μή πως, ὡς ὁ ὄφις ἐξηπάτησεν Εὕαν ἐν τῇ πανουργίᾳ αὐτοῦ, φθαρῇ τὰ νοήματα ὑμῶν ἀπὸ τῆς ἁπλότητος καὶ τῆς ἁγνότητος τῆς εἰς τὸν Χριστόν.
4
εἰ μὲν γὰρ ὁ ἐρχόμενος ἄλλον Ἰησοῦν κηρύσσει ὃν οὐκ ἐκηρύξαμεν, ἢ πνεῦμα ἕτερον λαμβάνετε ὃ οὐκ ἐλάβετε, ἢ εὐαγγέλιον ἕτερον ὃ οὐκ ἐδέξασθε, καλῶς ἀνέχεσθε.
5
λογίζομαι γὰρ μηδὲν ὑστερηκέναι τῶν ὑπερλίαν ἀποστόλων·
6
εἰ δὲ καὶ ἰδιώτης τῷ λόγῳ, ἀλλ’ οὐ τῇ γνώσει, ἀλλ’ ἐν παντὶ φανερώσαντες ἐν πᾶσιν εἰς ὑμᾶς.
7
Ἢ ἁμαρτίαν ἐποίησα ἐμαυτὸν ταπεινῶν ἵνα ὑμεῖς ὑψωθῆτε, ὅτι δωρεὰν τὸ τοῦ θεοῦ εὐαγγέλιον εὐηγγελισάμην ὑμῖν;
8
ἄλλας ἐκκλησίας ἐσύλησα λαβὼν ὀψώνιον πρὸς τὴν ὑμῶν διακονίαν,
9
καὶ παρὼν πρὸς ὑμᾶς καὶ ὑστερηθεὶς οὐ κατενάρκησα οὐθενός· τὸ γὰρ ὑστέρημά μου προσανεπλήρωσαν οἱ ἀδελφοὶ ἐλθόντες ἀπὸ Μακεδονίας· καὶ ἐν παντὶ ἀβαρῆ ἐμαυτὸν ὑμῖν ἐτήρησα καὶ τηρήσω.
10
ἔστιν ἀλήθεια Χριστοῦ ἐν ἐμοὶ ὅτι ἡ καύχησις αὕτη οὐ φραγήσεται εἰς ἐμὲ ἐν τοῖς κλίμασι τῆς Ἀχαΐας.
11
διὰ τί; ὅτι οὐκ ἀγαπῶ ὑμᾶς; ὁ θεὸς οἶδεν.
12
Ὃ δὲ ποιῶ καὶ ποιήσω, ἵνα ἐκκόψω τὴν ἀφορμὴν τῶν θελόντων ἀφορμήν, ἵνα ἐν ᾧ καυχῶνται εὑρεθῶσιν καθὼς καὶ ἡμεῖς.
13
οἱ γὰρ τοιοῦτοι ψευδαπόστολοι, ἐργάται δόλιοι, μετασχηματιζόμενοι εἰς ἀποστόλους Χριστοῦ·
14
καὶ οὐ θαῦμα, αὐτὸς γὰρ ὁ Σατανᾶς μετασχηματίζεται εἰς ἄγγελον φωτός·
15
οὐ μέγα οὖν εἰ καὶ οἱ διάκονοι αὐτοῦ μετασχηματίζονται ὡς διάκονοι δικαιοσύνης, ὧν τὸ τέλος ἔσται κατὰ τὰ ἔργα αὐτῶν.

16
Πάλιν λέγω, μή τίς με δόξῃ ἄφρονα εἶναι—εἰ δὲ μή γε, κἂν ὡς ἄφρονα δέξασθέ με, ἵνα κἀγὼ μικρόν τι καυχήσωμαι·
17
ὃ λαλῶ οὐ κατὰ κύριον λαλῶ, ἀλλ’ ὡς ἐν ἀφροσύνῃ, ἐν ταύτῃ τῇ ὑποστάσει τῆς καυχήσεως.
18
ἐπεὶ πολλοὶ καυχῶνται κατὰ σάρκα, κἀγὼ καυχήσομαι.
19
ἡδέως γὰρ ἀνέχεσθε τῶν ἀφρόνων φρόνιμοι ὄντες·
20
ἀνέχεσθε γὰρ εἴ τις ὑμᾶς καταδουλοῖ, εἴ τις κατεσθίει, εἴ τις λαμβάνει, εἴ τις ἐπαίρεται, εἴ τις εἰς πρόσωπον ὑμᾶς δέρει.
21
κατὰ ἀτιμίαν λέγω, ὡς ὅτι ἡμεῖς ἠσθενήκαμεν· ἐν ᾧ δ’ ἄν τις τολμᾷ, ἐν ἀφροσύνῃ λέγω, τολμῶ κἀγώ.
22
Ἑβραῖοί εἰσιν; κἀγώ. Ἰσραηλῖταί εἰσιν; κἀγώ. σπέρμα Ἀβραάμ εἰσιν; κἀγώ.
23
διάκονοι Χριστοῦ εἰσιν; παραφρονῶν λαλῶ, ὑπὲρ ἐγώ· ἐν κόποις περισσοτέρως, ἐν φυλακαῖς περισσοτέρως, ἐν πληγαῖς ὑπερβαλλόντως, ἐν θανάτοις πολλάκις·
24
ὑπὸ Ἰουδαίων πεντάκις τεσσεράκοντα παρὰ μίαν ἔλαβον,
25
τρὶς ἐραβδίσθην, ἅπαξ ἐλιθάσθην, τρὶς ἐναυάγησα, νυχθήμερον ἐν τῷ βυθῷ πεποίηκα·
26
ὁδοιπορίαις πολλάκις, κινδύνοις ποταμῶν, κινδύνοις λῃστῶν, κινδύνοις ἐκ γένους, κινδύνοις ἐξ ἐθνῶν, κινδύνοις ἐν πόλει, κινδύνοις ἐν ἐρημίᾳ, κινδύνοις ἐν θαλάσσῃ, κινδύνοις ἐν ψευδαδέλφοις,
27
κόπῳ καὶ μόχθῳ, ἐν ἀγρυπνίαις πολλάκις, ἐν λιμῷ καὶ δίψει, ἐν νηστείαις πολλάκις, ἐν ψύχει καὶ γυμνότητι·
28
χωρὶς τῶν παρεκτὸς ἡ ἐπίστασίς μοι ἡ καθ’ ἡμέραν, ἡ μέριμνα πασῶν τῶν ἐκκλησιῶν.
29
τίς ἀσθενεῖ, καὶ οὐκ ἀσθενῶ; τίς σκανδαλίζεται καὶ οὐκ ἐγὼ πυροῦμαι;
30
Εἰ καυχᾶσθαι δεῖ, τὰ τῆς ἀσθενείας μου καυχήσομαι.
31
ὁ θεὸς καὶ πατὴρ τοῦ κυρίου Ἰησοῦ οἶδεν, ὁ ὢν εὐλογητὸς εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας, ὅτι οὐ ψεύδομαι.
32
ἐν Δαμασκῷ ὁ ἐθνάρχης Ἁρέτα τοῦ βασιλέως ἐφρούρει τὴν πόλιν Δαμασκηνῶν πιάσαι με,
33
καὶ διὰ θυρίδος ἐν σαργάνῃ ἐχαλάσθην διὰ τοῦ τείχους καὶ ἐξέφυγον τὰς χεῖρας αὐτοῦ.

1
Plût à Dieu que vous me supportassiez un peu dans mon imprudence ; mais encore supportez-moi.
2
Car je suis jaloux de vous d'une jalousie de Dieu ; parce que je vous ai unis à un seul mari, pour vous présenter à Christ [comme] une vierge chaste.
3
Mais je crains, que comme le serpent séduisit Eve par sa ruse, vos pensées aussi ne se corrompent, [en se détournant] de la simplicité qui est en Christ.
4
Car si quelqu'un venait qui vous prêchât un autre Jésus que nous n'avons prêché ; ou si vous receviez un autre Esprit que celui que vous avez reçu, ou un autre Evangile que celui que vous avez reçu, feriez-vous bien de l'endurer ?
5
Mais j'estime que je n'ai été en rien moindre que les plus excellents Apôtres.
6
Que si je suis comme quelqu'un du vulgaire par rapport au langage, je ne [le suis] pourtant pas en connaissance ; mais nous avons été entièrement manifestés en toutes choses envers vous.
7
Ai-je commis une faute en ce que je me suis abaissé moi-même, afin que vous fussiez élevés, parce que sans rien prendre je vous ai annoncé l'Évangile de Dieu ?
8
J'ai dépouillé les autres Églises, prenant de quoi m'entretenir pour vous servir.
9
Et lorsque j'étais avec vous, et que j'ai été en nécessité, je ne me suis point relâché du travail afin de n'être à charge à personne ; car les frères qui étaient venus de Macédoine ont suppléé à ce qui me manquait ; et je me suis gardé de vous être à charge en aucune chose, et je m'en garderai encore.
10
La vérité de Christ est en moi, que cette gloire ne me sera point ravie dans les contrées de l'Achaïe.
11
Pourquoi ? est-ce parce que je ne vous aime point ? Dieu le sait !
12
Mais ce que je fais, je le ferai encore, pour retrancher l'occasion à ceux qui cherchent l'occasion ; afin qu'en ce de quoi ils se glorifient, ils soient aussi trouvés tout tels que nous sommes.
13
Car tels faux Apôtres sont des ouvriers trompeurs, qui se déguisent en Apôtres de Christ.
14
Et cela n'est pas étonnant : car satan lui-même se déguise en Ange de lumière.
15
Ce n'est donc pas un grand sujet d'étonnement si ses ministres aussi se déguisent en ministres de justice ; [mais] leur fin sera conforme à leurs oeuvres.
Les souffrances endurées par Paul en tant qu'apôtre
16
Je le dis encore, afin que personne ne pense que je sois imprudent ; ou bien supportez-moi comme un imprudent, afin que je me glorifie aussi un peu.
17
Ce que je vais dire, en rapportant les sujets que j'aurais de me glorifier, je ne le dirai pas selon le Seigneur, mais comme par imprudence.
18
Puis [donc] que plusieurs se vantent selon la chair, je me vanterai moi aussi.
19
Car vous souffrez volontiers les imprudents, parce que vous êtes sages.
20
Même si quelqu'un vous asservit, si quelqu'un vous mange, si quelqu'un prend [votre bien], si quelqu'un s'élève [sur vous], si quelqu'un vous frappe au visage, vous le souffrez.
21
Je le dis avec honte, même comme si nous avions été sans aucune force ; mais si en quelque chose quelqu'un ose [se glorifier] (je parle en imprudent) j'ai la même hardiesse.
22
Sont-ils Hébreux ? je le suis aussi. Sont-ils Israélites ? je le suis aussi. Sont-ils de la semence d'Abraham ? je le suis aussi.
23
Sont-ils ministres de Christ ? (je parle comme un imprudent) je le suis plus qu'eux ; en travaux davantage, en blessures plus qu'eux, en prison davantage, en morts plusieurs fois.
24
J'ai reçu des Juifs par cinq fois quarante coups, moins un.
25
J'ai été battu de verges trois fois ; j'ai été lapidé une fois ; j'ai fait naufrage trois fois ; j'ai passé un jour et une nuit en la profonde mer.
26
En voyages souvent, en périls des fleuves, en périls des brigands, en périls de [ma] nation, en périls des Gentils, en périls dans les villes, en périls dans les déserts, en périls en mer, en périls parmi de faux frères ;
27
En peine et en travail, en veilles souvent, en faim et en soif, en jeûnes souvent, dans le froid et dans la nudité.
28
Outre les choses de dehors ce qui me tient assiégé tous les jours, c'est le soin que j'ai de toutes les Églises.
29
Qui est-ce qui est affaibli, que je ne sois aussi affaibli ? qui est-ce qui est scandalisé, que je n'en sois aussi brûlé ?
30
S'il faut se glorifier, je me glorifierai des choses qui sont de mon infirmité.
31
Dieu, qui est le Père de notre Seigneur Jésus-Christ, et qui est béni éternellement, sait que je ne mens point.
32
A Damas, le Gouverneur pour le roi Arétas avait mis des gardes dans la ville des Damascéniens pour me prendre ;
33
Mais on me descendit de la muraille dans une corbeille par une fenêtre, et ainsi j'échappai de ses mains.
