2Co 2. Korintským, kapitola Druhý list Korintským, kapitola 8

Nedejte se zahanbit

Měli byste tedy ten nápad, který se zrodil u vás, dotáhnout až do konce. Když jste začali s takovým nadšením, nepolevujte nyní a ochotně dávejte, kolik můžete. Kdo více dát nemůže, ať se netrápí. Bohu záleží na ochotě, a ne na velikosti daru.

2. Korintským 8:10–12 v různých překladech

Čeština

B21 ¹⁰Řeknu vám, co by podle mého názoru bylo pro vás nejlepší. Před rokem jste přece byli první, kdo s tím začali, ale hlavně jste to chtěli. ¹¹Nuže, dejte se do díla, vykonejte to! Jako jste byli připraveni chtít, tak také buďte připraveni jednat. Dávejte podle toho, co máte, ¹²vždyť to, co se počítá, je ochota. Dar je vzácný podle toho, co člověk má, ne podle toho, co nemá.

BKR ¹⁰A k tomuť vám radu dávám; nebo jest vám to užitečné, kteříž jste netoliko činiti, ale i chtíti prve začali léta předešlého. ¹¹Protož nyní již to skutkem vykonejte, aby jakož hotové bylo chtění, tak také bylo i vykonání z toho, což máte. ¹²Nebo jest-liť prve vůle hotová, podle toho, což kdo má, vzácná jest Bohu, ne podle toho, čehož nemá.

KJV (66 books) ¹⁰And herein I give my advice: for this is expedient for you, who have begun before, not only to do, but also to be forward a year ago. ¹¹Now therefore perform the doing of it; that as there was a readiness to will, so there may be a performance also out of that which ye have. ¹²For if there be first a willing mind, it is accepted according to that a man hath, and not according to that he hath not.

KJV (Cambridge) ¹⁰And herein I give my advice: for this is expedient for you, who have begun before, not only to do, but also to be forward a year ago. ¹¹Now therefore perform the doing of it; that as there was a readiness to will, so there may be a performance also out of that which you have. ¹²For if there be first a willing mind, it is accepted according to that a man hath, and not according to that he hath not.

AFINT (Exp US) ¹⁰And in this matter I offer my judgment, for this is beneficial for you, since you were the first not only to act but also to desire to do so a year ago. ¹¹Now bring this work to completion as well, so that just as there was readiness to desire it, there may also be completion according to what you have. ¹²For if the willingness is present, the gift is acceptable according to what one has, not according to what one does not have.

AFINT (Lit US) ¹⁰And I give a judgment in this matter, for this is profitable for you, who not only began a year ago to do this, but also to desire to do so. ¹¹But now finish doing it also, so that, just as there was the readiness to desire it, so there may also be the completion of it according to what you have. ¹²For if the readiness is present, it is acceptable according to what a person has, not according to what he does not have.

ASV ¹⁰And herein I give my judgment: for this is expedient for you, who were the first to make a beginning a year ago, not only to do, but also to will. ¹¹But now complete the doing also; that as there was the readiness to will, so there may be the completion also out of your ability. ¹²For if the readiness is there, it is acceptable according as a man hath, not according as he hath not.

BSB ¹⁰And this is my opinion about what is helpful for you in this matter: Last year you were the first not only to give, but even to have such a desire. ¹¹Now finish the work, so that you may complete it with the same eager desire, according to your means. ¹²For if the eagerness is there, the gift is acceptable according to what one has, not according to what he does not have.

DRA ¹⁰And herein I give my advice; for this is profitable for you, who have begun not only to do, but also to be willing, a year ago. ¹¹Now therefore perform ye it also in deed; that as your mind is forward to be willing, so it may be also to perform, out of that which you have. ¹²For if the will be forward, it is accepted according to that which a man hath, not according to that which he hath not.

EMTV ¹⁰And I give my opinion in this: For this is profitable for you, who not only previously began doing this, but also desired to, since last year. ¹¹And now also complete doing it; that as indeed there was the readiness to desire it, thus also there may be the completion from what you have. ¹²For if there is first a readiness, it is acceptable according to what one has, and not according to what he does not have.

FBV ¹⁰This is my advice: it would be good if you finished what you started. Last year you were not only the first to give but the first to want to do so. ¹¹Now finish what you planned to do. Be as keen to finish as you were to plan, and give as you are able. ¹²If the willingness is there, it's fine to give what you have, not what you don't have!

GNV ¹⁰And I shewe my minde herein: for this is expedient for you, which haue begun not to doe onely, but also to will, a yeare agoe. ¹¹Nowe therefore performe to doe it also, that as there was a readinesse to will, euen so yee may performe it of that which yee haue. ¹²For if there be first a willing minde, it is accepted according to that a man hath, and not according to that he hath not.

LSV ¹⁰And I give an opinion in this: for this [is] expedient to yöu, who not only to do, but also to will, began before—a year ago, ¹¹and now also finish doing [it], that even as [there is] the readiness of the will, so also the finishing, out of that which yöu have, ¹²for if the willing mind is present, it is well-accepted according to that which anyone may have, not according to that which he does not have;

NASB ¹⁰I give my opinion in this matter, for this is to your advantage, who were the first to begin a year ago not only to do this, but also to desire to do it. ¹¹But now finish doing it also, so that just as there was the willingness to desire it, so there may be also the completion of it by your ability. ¹²For if the willingness is present, it is acceptable according to what a person has, not according to what he does not have. NASB 2020

NIV (US) ¹⁰And here is my judgment about what is best for you in this matter. Last year you were the first not only to give but also to have the desire to do so. ¹¹Now finish the work, so that your eager willingness to do it may be matched by your completion of it, according to your means. ¹²For if the willingness is there, the gift is acceptable according to what one has, not according to what one does not have.

NMV ¹⁰And herein I give [my] advice: for this is expedient for you, who have begun before, not only to do, but also to be forward (being eager; zealous; ready; being inclined to do something) a year ago. ¹¹Now therefore finish the doing [of it]; that as [there was] a readiness to will, so [there may be] a performance also out of that which you2f have. ¹²For if there be first a willing mind, [it is] accepted according to that a man has, [and] not according to that he has not.

OJB ¹⁰And in this I give my etza (advice): it is tov me'od that last shanah you were the first not only to give tzedakah but also to be willing to do so. ¹¹Now also complete what you started! Then your readiness in desiring it may be matched by your finishing it from what you have. ¹²For if the readiness is already present, it is acceptable according to whatever one may have — not according to what one does not have.

TCENT ¹⁰So I am giving my advice about what is best for you in this matter. Last year you were not only the first who wanted to give, but you were also the first to begin doing so. ¹¹Now finish doing it, so that your eager willingness to give may be matched by your completion of the gift, according to what you have. ¹²For if the eager willingness is there, it is acceptable according to what one has, not according to what one does not have.

T4T ¹⁰So, as you think of our Lord’s example, I will tell you what I think that you should do in this matter of giving money. As you know, last year, because you desired to give money to help God’s people in Judea province, you began collecting money [EUP]. ¹¹So now you should finish collecting the money [EUP] that you began to gather. In that way, everyone will know that you are just as ready to finish collecting this gift as you were to begin collecting it. Give what you are able to give. ¹²Keep in mind that if you really want to give something to help others, whatever any one of you is able to give will be pleasing to God. God does not expect his people to give more than they can afford to give.

WEB (US) ¹⁰I give advice in this: it is expedient for you who were the first to start a year ago, not only to do, but also to be willing. ¹¹But now complete the doing also, that as there was the readiness to be willing, so there may be the completion also out of your ability. ¹²For if the readiness is there, it is acceptable according to what you have, not according to what you don’t have.
