2 Corinthians 7:6-15

6But he who encourages those that are [brought] low, [even] 1GodG2316, encouragedG3870 us by the coming of TitusG5103;

7and not by his coming onlyG3440, but alsoG2532 through the encouragementG3874 with which he was encouragedG3870 as to you; relating to us your ardent desire, your mourningG3602, your zealG2205 for me; so that I the moreG3123 rejoicedG5463.

8For if alsoG2532 I grievedG3076 you in the letterG1992, I do not regret [it], if evenG2532 I have regretted it; for I seeG991 that that letterG1992, if evenG2532 [it were] onlyG1487 for a timeG5610, grievedG3076 you.

9NowG3568 I rejoiceG5463, not that ye have been grievedG3076, but that ye have been grievedG3076 to repentanceG3341; for ye have been grievedG3076 accordingG2596 to 2GodG2316, that in nothingG3367 ye might be injured by us.

10For griefG3077 accordingG2596 to 3GodG2316 works repentanceG3341 to salvationG4991, never to be regretted; but the griefG3077 of the worldG2889 works deathG2288.

11For, beholdG2400, this sameG846 thingG3778, your beingG1510 grievedG3076 accordingG2596 to 4GodG2316, howG4214 muchG4214 diligenceG4710 it wrought in you, but [what] excusing [of yourselves], but [what] indignation, but [what] fearG5401, but [what] ardent desire, but [what] zealG2205, but [what] vengeanceG1557: in every way ye have proved yourselves to beG1510 pureG53 in the matterG4229.

12So then, if alsoG2532 I wroteG1125 to you, [it was] not for the sake of him that injured, nor for the sake of him that was injured, but for the sake of our diligent zeal for you being manifestedG5319 to you before 5GodG2316.

13For this reason we have been encouragedG3870. And we the ratherG3123 rejoicedG5463 in our encouragementG3874 moreG3123 abundantly by reason of the joyG5479 of TitusG5103, because his spiritG4151 has been refreshedG373 by you all.

14Because if I boastedG2744 to him anythingG5100 about you, I have not been put to shameG2617; but as we have spokenG2980 to you all thingsG3956 in truthG225, so alsoG2532 our boastingG2744 to TitusG5103 has been [the] truthG225;

15and his affectionsG4698 areG1510 moreG4056 abundantly towards you, calling to mind the obedienceG5218 of you all, howG5613 with fearG5401 and trembling ye receivedG1209 him.
