更恐吾來時、天主令我汗顏無地、蓋一見諸犯奸邪淫亂之徒、尚未幡然悔改、吾能不為之號咷大哭乎哉？

且怕我来的时候，我的神叫我在你们面前惭愧，又因许多人从前犯罪，行污秽、奸淫、邪荡的事不肯悔改，我就忧愁。

我怕我再来的时候，我的上帝使我在你们面前蒙羞，并且又因许多人从前犯罪，行污秽、淫乱、放荡的事，不肯悔改而悲伤。

我怕我再来的时候，我的神使我在你们面前蒙羞，并且又因许多人从前犯罪，行污秽、淫乱、放荡的事，不肯悔改而悲伤。

我怕再去你们那里时，我的上帝会使我在你们面前感到羞愧，又怕看到许多从前犯罪、道德败坏、淫乱放荡的人仍然不肯悔改，便心里悲伤。

又怕我再来的时候，我的神使我在你们面前羞愧；并且我要为许多从前犯罪的人哀痛，因为他们行了污秽、奸淫、邪荡的事，却不肯悔改。

恐怕我来的时候，我的神会使我在你们面前再一次蒙羞，而且因为许多人从前犯了罪，又不肯为他们所行的污秽、淫乱和好色的事而悔改，我就会悲伤。

且怕我來的時候，我的神叫我在你們面前慚愧，又因許多人從前犯罪，行污穢、姦淫、邪蕩的事不肯悔改，我就憂愁。

我怕我再來的時候，我的上帝使我在你們面前蒙羞，並且又因許多人從前犯罪，行污穢、淫亂、放蕩的事，不肯悔改而悲傷。

我怕我再來的時候，我的神使我在你們面前蒙羞，並且又因許多人從前犯罪，行污穢、淫亂、放蕩的事，不肯悔改而悲傷。

我怕再去你們那裡時，我的上帝會使我在你們面前感到羞愧，又怕看到許多從前犯罪、道德敗壞、淫亂放蕩的人仍然不肯悔改，便心裡悲傷。

又怕我再來的時候，我的神使我在你們面前羞愧；並且我要為許多從前犯罪的人哀痛，因為他們行了污穢、姦淫、邪蕩的事，卻不肯悔改。

怕我再到你們那裏去的時候、我的上帝卑抑了我在你們面前；怕因許多人從前犯了罪、還沒有改悔他們所習行的污穢淫亂和邪蕩，我就不得不哀慟。

恐怕我來的時候，我的神會使我在你們面前再一次蒙羞，而且因為許多人從前犯了罪，又不肯為他們所行的汙穢、淫亂和好色的事而悔改，我就會悲傷。

又恐我再至時、上帝卑我於爾前、我將為彼干罪諸人、未改悔其污穢淫亂、邪侈之行者而憂也、

勿使我至時、上帝卑我、見眾犯罪、污穢淫行、邪侈、而不悔改、為吾憂也、

又恐我復來時、我天主使我於爾中慚愧、且見多人已犯罪、而未悔其所行之污穢、姦淫、邪侈、我則甚憂、

I am afraid that when I come again my God will humble me before you, and I will be grieved over many who have sinned earlier and have not repented of the impurity, sexual sin and debauchery in which they have indulged.

I’m afraid that when I come again my God will put me to shame in front of you. Then I will be sad about many who sinned earlier and have not turned away from it. They have not turned away from uncleanness, sexual sins and wild living. They have done all those things.

I fear that when I come again my God may humble me before you, and I may have to mourn over many of those who sinned earlier and have not repented of the impurity, sexual immorality, and sensuality that they have practiced.

Yes, I am afraid that when I come again, God will humble me in your presence. And I will be grieved because many of you have not given up your old sins. You have not repented of your impurity, sexual immorality, and eagerness for lustful pleasure.

I fear that when I come my God will again humiliate me in your presence, and I will grieve for many who sinned before and have not repented of the moral impurity, sexual immorality, and sensuality they practiced.

I am afraid that when I come again my God may humiliate me before you, and I may mourn over many of those who have sinned in the past and not repented of the impurity, sexual immorality, and indecent behavior which they have practiced.

lest, when I come again, my God will humble me among you, and I shall mourn for many who have sinned before and have not repented of the uncleanness, fornication, and lewdness which they have practiced.

lest again when I come my God should humble me before you, and I should mourn for many of them that have sinned heretofore, and repented not of the uncleanness and fornication and lasciviousness which they committed.

I fear that when I come my God will again humiliate me in your presence, and I will grieve for many who sinned before and have not repented of the moral impurity, sexual immorality, and promiscuity they practiced.

[ And] lest, when I come again, my God will humble me among you, and[ that] I shall bewail many which have sinned already, and have not repented of the uncleanness and fornication and lasciviousness which they have committed.

I am afraid that when I come again, my God may humiliate me before you, and I will grieve for many of those who previously sinned and have not repented of the impurity, sexual immorality, and licentiousness that they have practiced.

that again when I come my God would humble me before you, and I would mourn for many of those who have sinned before now, and not repented of the uncleanness, sexual immorality, and lustfulness which they committed.

曩者與爾晤時、予曾告諸犯罪者及其他同人、予若重來、決不有所優容。今方暌隔、亦欲一申舊命、莫謂言之不預也。

夫情慾之事、亦顯而易見也；凡姦非污濁、淫蕩奢侈、

據報爾中竟有奸其繼母者；如此淫亂、即在異邦人中、亦未之前聞。

我於前書中、曾誡爾勿與淫亂之人來往；非指外界淫亂、慳吝、掠奪、迷信偶像之人也。吾豈欲爾脫離人世乎？吾意乃謂苟有自名為吾道中人、而猶淫亂、慳吝、迷信、慢罵、狂飲、勒索、誅求也、若此之人、應羞與為伍、雖拒與同席可也。

故應將一切卑污之心事、置諸死地，凡淫亂、卑污、邪情、惡慾、貪孌、莫非崇拜偶像之變相、

猶如搶物於火；其他則哀矜而加以戒懼、避之若浼；即其身體所玷污之衣裳、亦宜深惡而痛絕之也。

寧不知為不義者必不得承天主之國乎？幸毋自欺！凡行淫亂、拜偶像、犯奸惡、為孌童、親男色、作盜賊、貪污、沉湎、謗人、勒索之徒、未有能承受天主之國者也。爾中以前亦有屬此類者、今則已賴吾主耶穌基督之名及天主聖神之恩、而洗滌夙穢且受聖而復義矣。

蓋方今天下、與基督之十字架為敵者滔滔皆是也。此予已屢為爾曹陳之、今復涕泣為爾等道之；若輩之終局、淪喪也、若輩之所天、口腹也、若輩之所引以為榮者、無恥之行也、若輩之所志、不外塵世之事也。

然吾意已定、下次決不願與爾等以憂戚相見。吾苟使爾等憂戚、又誰能使我歡樂？豈吾所使憂戚之人、轉能令吾歡樂耶？此點吾在前書中亦曾提及、以免吾來之時、應使我歡欣鼓舞者、反貽我以憂戚耳。且吾固深信爾等莫不以吾之樂為樂也。吾作前書時、淚眼洗面、心中不知有多少憂慮苦悶、非欲使爾等憂戚、乃欲使爾等知我之如何赤忱相愛耳。倘有為憂戚之造因者、彼豈徒貽吾一人憂、且多少亦貽爾等憂；蓋吾言『多少』者不欲責之太過耳。彼所受於爾眾之責、亦已備矣。爾等亟應強恕之、安慰之；不然、彼或將因過於憂戚而從此沉淪、不能自振也。故千乞向彼證爾愛德。蓋前書所云、亦不過欲借此測驗爾等之服從否耳。要之、爾等所恕者、我亦恕之。須知凡我有所恕、無不在基督之前、為爾等之故而為之也；庶幾吾人不致為沙殫所乘；彼之詭計、吾人亦知之稔矣。

群小背主。我為泫然。

以期優遊於光天化日之下乎？醉生夢死、沉湎酒色、嫉妒鬥狠、皆非所宜。

吾今則樂甚；非樂爾等之憂戚、乃樂爾等因憂戚而致悔改耳。爾等之憂戚、既允合天主聖意、則固未因吾人而受損也。蓋正當之憂戚、令人悔改、而蒙救恩；亦何悔之有？惟世俗之憂戚、乃致死耳。曷一思之、爾等既循聖道而憂戚、其效果為何如耶？爾等因憂戚而儆惕、而反省、而發憤、而小心翼翼、而發揚蹈厲、而至誠無妄、而疾惡如讎矣。爾之處此事、實無在而不自證其為貞固也。

婚姻為聖潔之事、床笫不容沾辱。淫人妻女、必遭天誅。

耶穌應曰：『噫！乏信乖戾之世代乎！予之偕爾容爾、將至何時？且引爾子來。』童甫至、鬼復摔之倒地、痙攣益甚。耶穌訶斥邪魔、療童以歸諸其父。

豈不知爾等之身、乃基督之肢體乎？寧能將基督之肢體、一變而為娼妓之肢體乎？無此理也！又豈不知與娼妓相結合者、則與娼妓成為一體；正如經之所云：『二人成為一體』乎？惟與主相結合者、斯與主融為一神矣。故兄弟務須自愛、於邪淫之事、避之惟恐不遠。一切罪惡、施於身外、惟邪淫為褻瀆自身。

蓋斯輩大言不慚、提倡邪淫；凡初脫惡習者、鮮不受惑；

凡梟獍、巫覡、淫亂、兇暴、崇拜偶像、妖言惑眾者、皆當擯諸邑外。

啟示者曰：「信哉、吾必速臨！」吾曰：「心所願也！主耶穌可以降矣！」

幸毋自誤、應知凡奸非淫穢貪婪、莫非崇拜偶像之變相。犯此者必不得承嗣基督及天主之國也。勿為浮言所惑、蓋天主義怒之臨於悖逆諸子、正為此耳。

一俟爾曹之順服臻於純熟之境、吾儕即將懲罰一切悖逆抗命之徒矣。

且主亦恐我以受此特達之啟示、而驕矜自慢也；故容沙殫加我以肉身上之痛楚、有如芒刺之着體、蓋不欲吾之得意而忘形耳。

吾今之所以先派兄弟者、亦欲爾等有備、庶幾吾所誇獎爾等之事、不成子虛烏有；萬一馬其頓人與吾偕來時、見爾等無所準備、則不但爾等、即吾儕亦將汗顏無地矣！

蓋天主之意旨無他、欲爾成聖而已。是宜戒絕一切邪淫、各宜自愛、守身如玉、切勿縱情恣慾、如異邦不識天主者所為也、凡因縱情、而侵害兄弟、欺負兄弟、皆天主所不容、報應孔邇；此點吾儕前已鄭重言之。蓋天主之召吾人、非欲吾人淪於邪污、乃欲吾人進於聖潔。

蓋吾有大憂、中心恆覺惄焉如擣。

再加索多馬蛾靡拉及其周鄰諸邑、皆以放縱恣肆、褻行無恥、爰受永火之刑、用垂炯戒。

不復徇人欲、惟循天主聖意、以度餘生。夫過去之日、與世俗同流合污、放縱恣肆、沈湎酒色、崇拜偶像、不已足乎？

凡懦怯無志、狐疑不信、放僻邪侈、殺人縱淫、妖術惑眾、崇拜偶像、荒誕無稽之徒、皆當投入硫火池中；是為二次之死。」

是故極望爾等善遇之、以發揚爾等之愛德、而證吾儕所誇耀於爾等者之非子虛、亦所以副諸聖會之盛意耳。

而縱慾逞邪、犯上作亂者、尤不能倖免。若輩目無法紀、怙惡不悛、誹謗有司、褻瀆神明。彼大能大權之天神所不敢貿然控訴於主前者、若輩宵小之徒、竟敢大放厥辭、肆其謗毀。若而人者、實同不具理性之畜類、專為被宰而生者；對於己所不知之事、信口訕謗、害人適以自害、作孽反以自受；白晝狂歡、是其所樂；於爾席上、恣其饕餮；心懷叵測、為玷為辱；眸子不正、惟見邪淫；意志薄弱者、受其誘惑；惟利是圖、實地獄中人也。
