1 But I determined this with myself, that I would not come again to you in heaviness. 2 For if I make you sorry, who is he then that makes me glad, but the same which is made sorry by me? 3 And I wrote this same to you, lest, when I came, I should have sorrow from them of whom I ought to rejoice; having confidence in you all, that my joy is [(the joy)] of you all. 4 For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote to you with many tears; not that you should be grieved, but that you might know the love which I have more abundantly to you. 5 But if any have caused grief, he hath not grieved me, but in part: that I may not overcharge you all. 6 Sufficient to such a man [(is)] this punishment, which [(was inflicted)] of many. 7 So that contrariwise you [(ought)] rather to forgive [(him)], and comfort [(him)], lest perhaps such a one should be swallowed up with overmuch sorrow. 8 Wherefore I beseech you that you would confirm [(your)] love toward him. 9 For to this end also did I write, that I might know the proof of you, whether you be obedient in all things. 10 To whom you forgive any thing, I [(forgive)] also: for if I forgave any thing, to whom I forgave [(it)], for your sakes [(forgave I it)] in the person of Christ; 11 Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 12 Furthermore, when I came to Troas to [(preach)] Christ's gospel, and a door was opened to me of the Lord, 13 I had no rest in my spirit, because I found not Titus my brother: but taking my leave of them, I went from thence into Macedonia. 14 Now thanks [(be)] to God, which always causes us to triumph in Christ, and makes manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place. 15 For we are to God a sweet savour of Christ, in them that are saved, and in them that perish: 16 To the one [(we are)] the savour of death to death; and to the other the savour of life to life. And who [(is)] sufficient for these things? 17 For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ.
