2 Corinthians 2

1ButG1161 I determinedG2919 thisG3778 with myselfG1683, that I wouldG2064 notG3361 comeG2064 againG3825 toG4314 youG4771 inG1722 heavinessG3077. 2ForG1063 ifG1487 IG1473 makeG3076 youG4771 sorryG3076, whoG5101 isG1510 heG3588 thenG2532 that makethG2165 meG1473 gladG2165, butG1487 the same whichG3588 is made sorryG3076 byG1537 meG1473? 3AndG2532 I wroteG1125 thisG3778 sameG846 unto youG4771, lestG2443, when I cameG2064, I should haveG2192 sorrowG3077 fromG575 them of whomG3739 IG1473 oughtG1163 to rejoiceG5463; having confidenceG3982 inG1909 youG4771 allG3956, thatG3754 myG1699 joyG5479 isG1510 the joy of youG4771 allG3956. 4ForG1063 out ofG1537 muchG4183 afflictionG2347 andG2532 anguishG4928 of heartG2588 I wroteG1125 unto youG4771 withG1223 manyG4183 tearsG1144; notG3756 thatG2443 ye should be grievedG3076, butG235 thatG2443 ye might knowG1097 the loveG3588G26 whichG3739 I haveG2192 more abundantlyG4057 untoG1519 youG4771. 5ButG1161 ifG1487 anyG5100 have caused griefG3076, he hathG3076 notG3756 grievedG3076 meG1473, butG235 inG575 partG3313: thatG2443 I mayG1912 notG3361 overchargeG1912 youG4771 allG3956. 6

SufficientG2425 to such a manG5108 is thisG3778 punishmentG3588G2009, whichG3588 was inflicted ofG5259 manyG4119. 7So thatG5620 contrariwiseG5121 yeG4771 ought ratherG3123 to forgiveG5483 him, andG2532 comfortG3870 him, lest perhapsG3381 such a oneG5108 should be swallowed upG2666 with overmuchG4053 sorrowG3077. 8WhereforeG1352 I beseechG3870 youG4771 that ye would confirmG2964 your loveG26 towardG1519 himG846. 9ForG1063 toG1519 this endG3778 alsoG2532 did I writeG1125, thatG2443 I might knowG1097 the proofG3588G1382 of youG4771, whetherG1487 ye beG1510 obedientG5255 inG1519 all thingsG3956. 10

To whomG3739 ye forgiveG5483 any thingG5100, IG1473 forgive alsoG2532: forG1063 ifG1487 IG1473 forgaveG5483 any thingG5100, to whomG3739 I forgaveG5483 it, forG1223 your sakesG4771 forgave I it inG1722 the personG4383 of ChristG5547; 11LestG2443 SatanG3588G4567 should get an advantageG4122 ofG5259 us: forG1063 we areG50 notG3756 ignorantG50 of hisG846 devicesG3588G3540.

12FurthermoreG1161, when I cameG2064 toG1519 TroasG3588G5174 toG1519 preach Christ’sG3588G5547 gospelG3588G2098, andG2532 a doorG2374 was openedG455 unto meG1473 ofG1722 the LordG2962, 13I hadG2192 noG3756 restG425 inG3588G4151 myG1473 spiritG3588G4151, because IG1473 foundG2147 notG3361 TitusG5103 myG1473 brotherG3588G80: butG235 taking my leaveG657 of themG846, I went from thenceG1831 intoG1519 MacedoniaG3109. 14NowG1161 thanksG5485 be unto GodG2316, which alwaysG3842 causethG2358 usG1473 to triumph inG1722 ChristG3588G5547, andG2532 maketh manifestG5319 the savourG3588G3744 of hisG846 knowledgeG3588G1108 byG1223 usG1473 inG1722 everyG3956 placeG5117. 15ForG3754 we areG1510 unto GodG3588G2316 a sweet savourG2175 of ChristG5547, inG1722 them thatG3588 are savedG4982, andG2532 inG1722 them thatG3588 perishG622: 16To the oneG3739 we are the savourG3744 of deathG2288 untoG1519 deathG2288; andG1161 to the otherG3739 the savourG3744 of lifeG2222 untoG1519 lifeG2222. AndG2532 whoG5101 is sufficientG2425 forG4314 these thingsG3778? 17ForG1063 we areG1510 notG3756 asG5613 manyG4183, which corruptG2585 the wordG3588G3056 of GodG3588G2316: butG235 asG5613 ofG1537 sincerityG1505, butG235 asG5613 ofG1537 GodG2316, in the sightG2714 of GodG3588G2316 speak weG2980 inG1722 ChristG5547.
