2 Corinthians 2

1ButG1161 I determinedG2919 thisG5124 with myselfG1683, that I wouldG2064 notG3361 comeG2064 againG3825 toG4314 youG5209 inG1722 heavinessG3077. 2ForG1063 ifG1487 IG1473 makeG3076 youG5209 sorryG3076, whoG5101 is heG2076 thenG2532 that makethG2165 meG3165 gladG2165, butG1508 the same who is made sorryG3076 byG1537 meG1700? 3AndG2532 I wroteG1125 thisG5124 sameG846 to youG5213, lestG3363, when I cameG2064, I should haveG2192 sorrowG3077 fromG575 them by whomG3739 IG3165 oughtG1163 to rejoiceG5463; having confidenceG3982 inG1909 youG5209 allG3956, thatG3754 myG1699 joyG5479 isG2076 the joy of youG5216 allG3956. 4ForG1063 out ofG1537 muchG4183 afflictionG2347 andG2532 anguishG4928 of heartG2588 I wroteG1125 to youG5213 withG1223 manyG4183 tearsG1144; notG3756 thatG2443 ye should be grievedG3076, butG235 thatG2443 ye might knowG1097 the loveG26 whichG3739 I haveG2192 more abundantlyG4056 toG1519 youG5209.

5ButG1161 if anyG1536 hath caused griefG3076, he hathG3076 notG3756 grievedG3076 meG1691, butG235 inG575 partG3313: thatG3363 I mayG1912 notG3363 burdenG1912 youG5209 allG3956. 6SufficientG2425 to such a manG5108 is thisG3778 punishmentG2009, whichG3588 was inflicted byG5259 manyG4119.1 7SoG5620 that on the contraryG5121 yeG5209 ought ratherG3123 to forgiveG5483 him, andG2532 comfortG3870 him, lestG3381 perhapsG4458 such an oneG5108 should be swallowed upG2666 with too muchG4055 sorrowG3077. 8ThereforeG1352 I beseechG3870 youG5209 that ye would confirmG2964 your loveG26 towardG1519 himG846. 9ForG1063 toG1519 this endG5124 alsoG2532 I wroteG1125, thatG2443 I might knowG1097 the proofG1382 of youG5216, whetherG1487 ye areG2075 obedientG5255 inG1519 all thingsG3956. 10To whomG3739 ye forgiveG5483 any thingG5100, IG1473 forgive alsoG2532: forG2532G1063 if IG1473 forgaveG5483 any thingG1536, to whomG3739 I forgaveG5483 it, for your sakesG1223G5209 I forgave it inG1722 the personG4383 of ChristG5547;2 11LestG3363 SatanG5259G4567 should get an advantage of usG4122: forG1063 we are notG3756 ignorantG50 of hisG846 devicesG3540.

12FurthermoreG1161, when I cameG2064 toG1519 TroasG5174 toG1519preach the gospelG2098 of ChristG5547, andG2532 a doorG2374 was openedG455 to meG3427 byG1722 the LordG2962, 13I hadG2192 noG3756 restG425 in myG3450 spiritG4151, because IG3165 foundG2147 notG3361 TitusG5103 myG3450 brotherG80: butG235 taking my leaveG657 of themG846, I went from thereG1831 intoG1519 MacedoniaG3109. 14NowG1161 thanksG5485 be to GodG2316, who alwaysG3842 causethG2358 usG2248 to triumphG2358 inG1722 ChristG5547, andG2532 maketh manifestG5319 the savourG3744 of hisG846 knowledgeG1108 byG1223 usG2257 inG1722 everyG3956 placeG5117. 15ForG3754 we areG2070 to GodG2316 a sweet savourG2175 of ChristG5547, inG1722 them that are savedG4982, andG2532 inG1722 them that perishG622: 16ToG3739 the oneG3303 we are the savourG3744 of deathG2288 toG1519 deathG2288; andG1161 to the otherG3739 the savourG3744 of lifeG2222 toG1519 lifeG2222. AndG2532 whoG5101 is sufficientG2425 forG4314 these thingsG5023? 17ForG1063 we areG2070 notG3756 asG5613 manyG4183, who corruptG2585 the wordG3056 of GodG2316: butG235 asG5613 fromG1537 sincerityG1505, butG235 asG5613 fromG1537 GodG2316, in the sightG2714 of GodG2316 we speakG2980 inG1722 ChristG5547.34
