2:1 But I determined this with myself, that I would not come
again to you in heaviness.
2:2 For if I make you sorry, who is he then that maketh me
glad, but the same which is made sorry by me?
2:3 And I wrote this same unto 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.
2:4 For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote
unto you with many tears; not that ye should be grieved, but
that ye might know the love which I have more abundantly unto
you.
2:5 But if any have caused grief, he hath not grieved me, but
in part: that I may not overcharge you all.
2:6 Sufficient to such a man [is] this punishment, which [was
inflicted] of many.
2:7 So that contrariwise ye [ought] rather to forgive [him],
and comfort [him], lest perhaps such a one should be swallowed
up with overmuch sorrow.
2:8 Wherefore I beseech you that ye would confirm [your] love
toward him.
2:9 For to this end also did I write, that I might know the
proof of you, whether ye be obedient in all things.
2:10 To whom ye 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;
2:11 Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not
ignorant of his devices.
2:12 Furthermore, when I came to Troas to [preach] Christ's
gospel, and a door was opened unto me of the Lord,
2:13 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.
2:14 Now thanks [be] unto God, which always causeth us to
triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his
knowledge by us in every place.
2:15 For we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ, in them
that are saved, and in them that perish:
2:16 To the one [we are] the savour of death unto death; and
to the other the savour of life unto life. And who [is]
sufficient for these things?
2:17 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.
