1.1 1.2 1.3 1.4
2 For I have made up my mind not to come to you again in sadness.2 For if I make you sad, who will be there to cheer me up except the one I saddened?3 I wrote what I did, so that when I come I may not be saddened by those over whom I ought to rejoice, because I have confidence that what brings me joy brings all of you the same joy.4 For out of much tribulation and anguish of heart I wrote you with many tears, not to sadden you,+ but to let you know the depth of love I have for you.5 Now if anyone has caused sadness,+ he has saddened, not me, but all of you to an extent—not to be too harsh in what I say.6 This rebuke given by the majority is sufficient for such a man;7 now you should instead kindly forgive and comfort him,+ so that he may not be overwhelmed* by excessive sadness.+8 I therefore exhort you to confirm your love for him.+9 For this is also why I wrote to you: to determine whether you would give proof of your obedience in all things.10 If you forgive anyone for anything, I do also. In fact, whatever I have forgiven (if I have forgiven anything) has been for your sake in Christ’s sight,11 so that we may not be overreached* by Satan,+ for we are not ignorant of his designs.*+12 Now when I arrived in Tro′as+ to declare the good news about the Christ and a door was opened to me in the Lord,13 my spirit felt no relief because of not finding Titus+ my brother. So I said good-bye to them and departed for Mac·e·do′ni·a.+14 But thanks be to God, who always leads us in a triumphal procession in company with the Christ and through us spreads* the fragrance of the knowledge of him in every place!15 For to God we are a sweet fragrance of Christ among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing;16 to the latter ones an odor* of death leading to death,+ to the former ones a fragrance of life leading to life. And who is adequately qualified for these things?17 We are, for we are not peddlers of* the word of God+ as many men are, but we speak in all sincerity as sent from God, yes, in the sight of God and in company with Christ.

2 Zato sam u sebi odlučio da vam ne donesem žalost kad ponovno dođem k vama.+2 Jer ako ja vas ražalostim,+ tko će mene razveseliti? Zar oni koje sam ja ražalostio?3 Što sam vam napisao, napisao sam zato da se, kad dođem, ne ražalostim+ zbog onih zbog kojih bih se trebao radovati.+ S obzirom na sve vas, uvjeren sam+ da ono što raduje mene raduje i sve vas.4 Jer pisao sam vam potaknut velikom brigom i tjeskobom u srcu, uz mnogo suza,+ ne da se ražalostite,+ nego da spoznate veliku ljubav koju osjećam prema vama.5 A ako me tko ražalostio,+ nije ražalostio mene, nego u neku ruku — ne želim pretjerivati — sve vas.6 Takvome je dovoljno što je ukoren+ od većine.7 Zato mu, naprotiv, spremno oprostite+ i utješite ga, da ga ne bi shrvala prevelika žalost.+8 Zato vas molim, pokažite mu da ga ljubite.+9 Jer zato vam i pišem da utvrdim jeste li poslušni u svemu.+10 Kome vi što spremno oprostite, tome opraštam i ja.+ A ja, ako sam kome što oprostio, oprostio sam zbog vas pred Kristom,11 da nas Sotona ne bi prevario,+ jer nam njegove namjere nisu nepoznate.+12 Kad sam došao u Troadu+ da objavim dobru vijest o Kristu, premda mi se pružila dobra prilika da ondje služim Gospodinu,*+13 nisam imao mira* jer nisam našao Tita,+ brata svojega, pa sam se oprostio s braćom i otišao u Makedoniju.+14 Ali hvala Bogu koji nas u zajedništvu+ s Kristom uvijek vodi+ u pobjedničkoj povorci i koji preko nas posvuda širi miris znanja o sebi!+15 Jer mi smo Bogu ugodan miris+ Kristov koji osjećaju i oni što su na putu spasenja i oni što su na putu u propast.+16 Ovim posljednjima to je miris smrti koji vodi u smrt,+ a prvima miris života koji vodi u život. A tko je sposoban za takvu službu?+17 Mi, jer nismo kao mnogi koji trguju riječju Božjom,+ nego govorimo iz iskrenih pobuda — kao poslani od Boga, pred Božjim očima i u zajedništvu s Kristom.+ Bilješke ^ Doslovno: “premda su mi se otvorila vrata u Gospodinu”.
