The old has gone, the new is here! Psalm 146:1-10 Psalter pages 858-859

2 Corinthians 5:14-21

14 For Christ’s love compels us, because we are convinced that one died for all, and therefore all died. 15 And he died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them and was raised again.

16 So from now on we regard no one from a worldly point of view. Though we once regarded Christ in this way, we do so no longer. 17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come:[a] The old has gone, the new is here! 18 All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: 19 that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting people’s sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation. 20 We are therefore Christ’s ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ’s behalf: Be reconciled to God. 21 God made him who had no sin to be sin[b] for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.

The Interlinear Literal Translation of the Greek New Testament Chapter 5

14 Η γαρ αγαπη του Χριστου συνεχει ημας κριναντας τουτο οτι ει εις υπερ παντων απεθανεν αρα οι παντες απεθανον

15 και υπερ παντων απεθανεν ινα οι ζωντες μηκετι εαυτοις ζωσιν αλλα τω υπερ αυτων αποθανοντι και εγερθεντι

16 ωστε ημεις απο του νυν ουδενα οιδαμεν κατα σαρκα ει δε και εγνωκαμεν κατα σαρκα Χριστον αλλα νυν ουκετι γινωσκομεν

17 ωστε ει τις εν Χριστω καινη κτισις τα αρχαια παρηλθεν ιδου γεγονεν καινα τα παντα

18 Τα δε παντα εκ του Θεου του καταλλαξαντος ημας εαυτω δια Ιησου Χριστου και δοντος ημιν την διακονιαν της καταλλαγης

19 ως οτι Θεος ην εν Χριστω κοσμον καταλλασσων εαυτω μη λογιζομενος αυτοις τα παραπτωματα αυτων και θεμενος εν ημιν τον λογον της καταλλαγης

20 Υπερ Χριστου ουν πρεσβευομεν ως του Θεου παρακαλουντος δι ημων δεομεθα υπερ Χριστου καταλλαγητε τω Θεω

21 τον γαρ μη γνοντα αμαρτιαν υπερ ημων αμαρτιαν εποιησεν ινα ημεις γινωμεθα δικαιοσυνη Θεου εν αυτω
