2 Corintios 11

I hope you will bear with a little of my foolishness, but you are already doing that.

OJALÁ toleraseis un poco mi locura; empero toleradme.

Would to God ye could bear with me a little in my folly: and indeed bear with me.

I wish that you would bear with me in a little foolishness, but indeed you do bear with me.

I am jealous for you with a godly jealousy. For I promised you to one husband, to present you as a pure virgin to Christ.

Pues que os celo con celo de Dios; porque os he desposado á un marido, para presentaros como una virgen pura á Cristo.

For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.

I am afraid, however, that just as Eve was deceived by the serpent’s cunning, your minds may be led astray from your simple and pure devotion to Christ.

Mas temo que como la serpiente engañó á Eva con su astucia, sean corrompidos así vuestros sentidos en alguna manera, de la simplicidad que es en Cristo.

But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.

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.

For if someone comes and proclaims a Jesus other than the One we proclaimed, or if you receive a different spirit than the One you received, or a different gospel than the one you accepted, you put up with it way too easily.

Porque si el que viene, predicare otro Jesús que el que hemos predicado, ó recibiereis otro espíritu del que habéis recibido, ú otro evangelio del que habéis aceptado, lo sufrierais bien.

For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him.

For if he who comes preaches another Jesus whom we didn’t preach, or if you receive a different spirit which you didn’t receive, or a different “good news” which you didn’t accept, you put up with that well enough.

I consider myself in no way inferior to those “super-apostles.”

Although I am not a polished speaker, I am certainly not lacking in knowledge. We have made this clear to you in every way possible.

Porque aunque soy basto en la palabra, empero no en la ciencia: mas en todo somos ya del todo manifiestos á vosotros.

But though I be rude in speech, yet not in knowledge; but we have been throughly made manifest among you in all things.

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.

Was it a sin for me to humble myself in order to exalt you, because I preached the gospel of God to you free of charge?

¿Pequé yo humillándome á mí mismo, para que vosotros fueseis ensalzados, porque os he predicado el evangelio de Dios de balde?

Have I committed an offence in abasing myself that ye might be exalted, because I have preached to you the gospel of God freely?

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?

I robbed other churches by accepting their support in order to serve you.

And when I was with you and in need, I was not a burden to anyone; for the brothers who came from Macedonia supplied my needs. I have refrained from being a burden to you in any way, and I will continue to do so.

Y estando con vosotros y teniendo necesidad, á ninguno fuí carga; porque lo que me faltaba, suplieron los hermanos que vinieron de Macedonia: y en todo me guardé de seros gravoso, y me guardaré.

As surely as the truth of Christ is in me, this boasting of mine will not be silenced in the regions of Achaia.

Es la verdad de Cristo en mí, que esta gloria no me será cerrada en las partes de Acaya.

As the truth of Christ is in me, no man shall stop me of this boasting in the regions of Achaia.

But I will keep on doing what I am doing, in order to undercut those who want an opportunity to be regarded as our equals in the things of which they boast.

Mas lo que hago, haré aún, para cortar la ocasión de aquellos que la desean, á fin de que en aquello que se glorían, sean hallados semejantes á nosotros.

But what I do, that I will do, that I may cut off occasion from them which desire occasion; that wherein they glory, they may be found even as we.

But what I do, that I will continue to do, that I may cut off opportunity from those who desire an opportunity, that in which they boast, they may be recognized just like us.

It is not surprising, then, if his servants masquerade as servants of righteousness. Their end will correspond to their actions.

Así que, no es mucho si también sus ministros se transfiguran como ministros de justicia; cuyo fin será conforme á sus obras.

It is no great thing therefore if his servants also masquerade as servants of righteousness, whose end will be according to their works.

I repeat: Let no one take me for a fool. But if you do, then receive me as a fool, so that I too may boast a little.

Otra vez digo: Que nadie me estime ser loco; de otra manera, recibidme como á loco, para que aun me gloríe yo un poquito.

I say again, Let no man think me a fool; if otherwise, yet as a fool receive me, that I may boast myself a little.

I say again, let no one think me foolish. But if so, yet receive me as foolish, that I also may boast a little.

In this confident boasting of mine, I am not speaking as the Lord would, but as a fool.

That which I speak, I speak it not after the Lord, but as it were foolishly, in this confidence of boasting.

For you gladly tolerate fools, since you are so wise.

Porque de buena gana toleráis los necios, siendo vosotros sabios:

For ye suffer fools gladly, seeing ye yourselves are wise.

For you bear with the foolish gladly, being wise.

In fact, you even put up with anyone who enslaves you or exploits you or takes advantage of you or exalts himself or strikes you in the face.

Porque toleráis si alguno os pone en servidumbre, si alguno os devora, si alguno toma, si alguno se ensalza, si alguno os hiere en la cara.

To my shame I concede that we were too weak for that! Speaking as a fool, however, I can match what anyone else dares to boast about.

Dígolo cuanto á la afrenta, como si nosotros hubiésemos sido flacos. Empero en lo que otro tuviere osadía (hablo con locura), también yo tengo osadía.

I speak as concerning reproach, as though we had been weak. Howbeit whereinsoever any is bold, (I speak foolishly,) I am bold also.

In my frequent journeys, I have been in danger from rivers and from bandits, in danger from my countrymen and from the Gentiles, in danger in the city and in the country, in danger on the sea and among false brothers,

En caminos muchas veces, peligros de ríos, peligros de ladrones, peligros de los de mi nación, peligros de los Gentiles, peligros en la ciudad, peligros en el desierto, peligros en la mar, peligros entre falsos hermanos;

In weariness and painfulness, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness.
