3:1
Incipimus iterum nosmetipsos commendare ? aut numquid egemus (sicut quidam ) commendatitiis epistolis ad vos , aut ex vobis ?
Are we beginning again to commend ourselves? Or do we need, as do some, letters of commendation to you or from you?
我們豈是又舉薦自己嗎？豈像別人用人的薦信給你們或用你們的薦信給人嗎？
3:2
Epistola nostra vos estis , scripta in cordibus nostris , quae scitur , et legitur ab omnibus hominibus :
You are our letter, written in our hearts, known and read by all men,
你們就是我們的薦信，寫在我們的心裏，被眾人所知道所念誦的。
3:3
manifestati quod epistola estis Christi , ministrata a nobis , et scripta non atramento , sed Spiritu Dei vivi : non in tabulis lapideis , sed in tabulis cordis carnalibus .
being revealed that you are a letter of Christ, served by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tablets of stone, but in tablets that are hearts of flesh.
你們明顯是基督的信，藉着我們修成的。不是用墨寫的，乃是用永生上帝的靈寫的；不是寫在石版上，乃是寫在心版上。
3:4
Fiduciam autem talem habemus per Christum ad Deum :
Such confidence we have through Christ toward God,
我們因基督，所以在上帝面前才有這樣的信心。
3:5
non quod sufficientes simus cogitare aliquid a nobis , quasi ex nobis : sed sufficientia nostra ex Deo est :
not that we are sufficient of ourselves to account anything as from ourselves; but our sufficiency is from God,
並不是我們憑自己能承擔甚麼事；我們所能承擔的，乃是出於上帝。
3:6
qui et idoneos nos fecit ministros novi testamenti : non littera , sed Spiritu : littera enim occidit , Spiritus autem vivificat .
who also made us sufficient as servants of a new covenant, not of the letter but of the Spirit. For the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.
他叫我們能承當這新約的執事，不是憑着字句，乃是憑着精意；因為那字句是叫人死，精意 是叫人活。
3:7
Quod si ministratio mortis litteris deformata in lapidibus fuit in gloria , ita ut non possent intendere filii Israël in faciem Moysi propter gloriam vultus ejus , quae evacuatur :
But if the service of death, written engraved on stones, came with glory, so that the children of Israel could not look steadfastly on the face of Moses for the glory of his face, which was passing away,
那用字刻在石頭上屬死的職事尚且有榮光，甚至以色列人因摩西面上的榮光，不能定睛看他的臉；這榮光原是漸漸退去的，
3:8
quomodo non magis ministratio Spiritus erit in gloria ?
won’t service of the Spirit be with much more glory?
何況那屬靈的職事豈不更有榮光嗎？
3:9
Nam si ministratio damnationis gloria est : multo magis abundat ministerium justitiae in gloria .
For if the service of condemnation has glory, the service of righteousness exceeds much more in glory.
若是定罪的職事有榮光，那稱義的職事榮光就越發大了。
3:10
Nam nec glorificatum est , quod claruit in hac parte , propter excellentem gloriam .
For most certainly that which has been made glorious has not been made glorious in this respect, by reason of the glory that surpasses.
那從前有榮光的，因這極大的榮光就算不得有榮光了；
3:11
Si enim quod evacuatur , per gloriam est : multo magis quod manet , in gloria est .
For if that which passes away was with glory, much more that which remains is in glory.
若那廢掉的有榮光，這長存的就更有榮光了。
3:12
Habentes igitur talem spem , multa fiducia utimur :
Having therefore such a hope, we use great boldness of speech,
我們既有這樣的盼望，就大膽講說，
3:13
et non sicut Moyses ponebat velamen super faciem suam , ut non intenderent filii Israël in faciem ejus , quod evacuatur ,
and not as Moses, who put a veil on his face so that the children of Israel wouldn’t look steadfastly on the end of that which was passing away.
不像摩西將帕子蒙在臉上，叫以色列人不能定睛看到那將廢者的結局。
3:14
sed obtusi sunt sensus eorum . Usque in hodiernum enim diem , idipsum velamen in lectione veteris testamenti manet non revelatum (quoniam in Christo evacuatur ),
But their minds were hardened, for until this very day at the reading of the old covenant the same veil remains, because in Christ it passes away.
但他們的心地剛硬，直到今日誦讀舊約的時候，這帕子還沒有揭去。這帕子在基督裏已經廢去了。
3:15
sed usque in hodiernum diem , cum legitur Moyses , velamen positum est super cor eorum .
But to this day, when Moses is read, a veil lies on their heart.
然而直到今日，每逢誦讀摩西書的時候，帕子還在他們心上。
3:16
Cum autem conversus fuerit ad Dominum , auferetur velamen .
But whenever someone turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away.
但他們的心幾時歸向主，帕子就幾時除去了。
3:17
Dominus autem Spiritus est : ubi autem Spiritus Domini , ibi libertas .
Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.
主就是那靈；主的靈在哪裏，那裏就得以自由。
3:18
Nos vero omnes , revelata facie gloriam Domini speculantes , in eamdem imaginem transformamur a claritate in claritatem , tamquam a Domini Spiritu .
But we all, with unveiled face seeing the glory of the Lord as in a mirror, are transformed into the same image from glory to glory, even as from the Lord, the Spirit.
我們眾人既然敞着臉得以看見主的榮光，好像從鏡子裏返照，就變成主的形狀，榮上加榮，如同從主的靈變成的。
