WMB (Same as above)
MSG (1-4)Well, this is my third visit coming up. Remember the Scripture that says, “A matter becomes clear after two or three witnesses give evidence”? On my second visit I warned that bunch that keeps sinning over and over in the same old ways that when I came back I wouldn’t go easy on them. Now, preparing for the third, I’m saying it again from a distance. If you haven’t changed your ways by the time I get there, look out. You who have been demanding proof that Christ speaks through me will get more than you bargained for. You’ll get the full force of Christ, don’t think you won’t. He was sheer weakness and humiliation when he was killed on the cross, but oh, he’s alive now—in the mighty power of God! We weren’t much to look at, either, when we were humiliated among you, but when we deal with you this next time, we’ll be alive in Christ, strengthened by God.

13:1-2 Announcing his intention to return to Corinth the third time (see study note on 12:14-15), Paul found confirmation of his plan in the Scriptures. The reason for this quotation is not clear, but perhaps, given the context of Deut 19:15, Paul wanted to warn them that every transgression (listed in 2 Cor 12:20-21) would be judged on his arrival. The two or three witnesses against the Corinthian offenders were Paul’s letters or visits and the promise of his coming the third time.
τοῖς λοιποῖς πᾶσιν
˱to˲_the_‹ones› ˱to˲_the rest all
Alternate translation: “to all of you other believers”
Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-condition-fact
ἐὰν ἔλθω
if ˱I˲_/may/_come
Paul speaks as if this were a hypothetical situation, but he means that he does intend to come again to Corinth. If your language does not state something as a condition if it is certain or true, and if your readers might misunderstand and think that what Paul is saying is uncertain, then you can translate his words as an affirmative statement. Alternate translation: “when I come”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
οὐ φείσομαι
not ˱I˲_/will_be/_sparing_‹anyone›
The implication is that, when Paul comes, he will punish any believer there who is continuing to live sinfully. You could include this information if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “I will not withhold punishment from anyone who is sinning”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / doublenegatives
οὐ φείσομαι
not ˱I˲_/will_be/_sparing_‹anyone›
If it would be clearer in your language, you could use a positive expression to translate this double negative that consists of the negative particle not and the negative verb spare. Alternate translation: “I will certainly punish everyone”
