2 Corinthians 1:24
2 Corinthians 1:24 (God`s Word)
It isn’t that we want to have control over your Christian faith. Rather, we want to work with you so that you will be happy. Certainly, you are firmly established in the Christian faith.
But that does not mean we want to dominate you by telling you how to put your faith into practice. We want to work together with you so you will be full of joy, for it is by your own faith that you stand firm.
We are not trying to control your faith. You are strong in faith. But we are workers with you for your own joy.
Not that we domineer over your faith, but we are workers with you for your joy; for in your faith you are standing firm.
Not that we have dominion over your faith, but are fellow workers for your joy; for by faith you stand.
This isn't because we want to dictate how you relate to God, but because we want to help you have a joyful experience—for it's by trusting God that you stand firm.
Not that we lord it over your faith, but we work with you for your joy, because it is by faith you stand firm.
Not for that we have dominion over your faith, but are helpers of your joy: for by faith ye stand.
not that we are lords over your faith, but we are workers together with your joy, for by faith you stand.
Not that we have lordship over your faith, but are helpers of your joy: for in faith ye stand fast.
We don’t control your faith, but are fellow workers with you for your joy. For you stand firm in faith.
not that we are lords over your faith, but we are workers together with your joy, for by the faith ye stand.
not that we rule [like dictators] over your faith, but rather we work with you for [the increase of] your joy; for in your faith you stand firm [in your strong conviction that Jesus of Nazareth—the Messiah—is the Son of God, through whom we obtain eternal salvation].
Not that we have dominion [over you] and lord it over your faith, but [rather that we work with you as] fellow laborers [to promote] your joy, for in [your] faith (in your strong and welcome conviction or belief that Jesus is the Messiah, through Whom we obtain eternal salvation in the kingdom of God) you stand firm.
Not that wee haue dominion ouer your faith, but wee are helpers of your ioy: for by faith yee stande.
I do not mean that we lord it over your faith, but we are workers with you for your joy, because you stand firm in your faith.
I don’t mean that we are trying to control your faith. You are strong in faith. But we are workers with you for your own happiness.
We are not trying to tell you what you must believe, like masters would do. You are already strong in your spirits because you trust God. So we want to help you to be really happy.
Not for that we have dominion over your faith, but are helpers of your joy: for by faith ye stand.
