13:1  ecce tertio hoc venio ad vos in        1.  This is the third time I am coming  
ore duorum vel trium testium stabit          to you. In the mouth of two or three  
omne verbum                                  witnesses shall every word be  
                                             established.
                                             
13:2  praedixi et praedico ut praesens       2.  I told you before, and foretell  
bis et nunc absens his qui ante              you, as if I were present, the second  
peccaverunt et ceteris omnibus quoniam       time; and being absent now I write to  
si venero iterum non parcam                  them which heretofore have sinned, and  
                                             to all other, that, if I come again, I  
                                             will not spare:
                                             
13:3  an experimentum quaeritis eius         3.  Since ye seek a proof of Christ  
qui in me loquitur Christi qui in vos        speaking in me, which to you-ward is  
non infirmatur sed potens est in vobis       not weak, but is mighty in you.
                                             
13:4  nam et si crucifixus est ex            4.  For though he was crucified through  
infirmitate sed vivit ex virtute Dei         weakness, yet he liveth by the power of  
nam et nos infirmi sumus in illo sed         God. For we also are weak in him, but  
vivemus cum eo ex virtute Dei in vobis       we shall live with him by the power of  
                                             God toward you.
                                             
13:5  vosmet ipsos temptate si estis in      5.  Examine yourselves, whether ye be  
fide ipsi vos probate an non                 in the faith; prove your own selves.  
cognoscitis vos ipsos quia Christus          Know ye not your own selves, how that  
Iesus in vobis est nisi forte reprobi        Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be  
estis                                        reprobates?
                                             
13:6  spero autem quod cognoscetis quia      6.  But I trust that ye shall know that  
nos non sumus reprobi                        we are not reprobates.
                                             
13:7  oramus autem Deum ut nihil mali        7.  Now I pray to God that ye do no  
faciatis non ut nos probati pareamus         evil; not that we should appear  
sed ut vos quod bonum est faciatis nos       approved, but that ye should do that  
autem ut reprobi simus                       which is honest, though we be as  
                                             reprobates.
                                             
13:8  non enim possumus aliquid              8.  For we can do nothing against the  
adversus veritatem sed pro veritate          truth, but for the truth.
                                             
13:9  gaudemus enim quando nos infirmi       9.  For we are glad, when we are weak,  
sumus vos autem potentes estis hoc et        and ye are strong: and this also we  
oramus vestram consummationem                wish, even your perfection.
                                             
13:10  ideo haec absens scribo ut non        10.  Therefore I write these things  
praesens durius agam secundum                being absent, lest being present I  
potestatem quam Dominus dedit mihi in        should use sharpness, according to the  
aedificationem et non in destructionem       power which the Lord hath given me to  
                                             edification, and not to destruction.
                                             
13:11  de cetero fratres gaudete             11.  Finally, brethren, farewell. Be  
perfecti estote exhortamini idem sapite      perfect, be of good comfort, be of one  
pacem habete et Deus dilectionis et          mind, live in peace; and the God of  
pacis erit vobiscum                          love and peace shall be with you.
                                             
13:12  salutate invicem in osculo            12.  Greet one another with an holy  
sancto                                       Kiss.  
salutant vos sancti omnes                    13.  All the saints salute you.
                                             
13:13  gratia Domini nostri Iesu             
Christi et caritas dei
et communicatio Sancti Sprititus
cum omnibus vobis   amen
