But I determined this with
myself, that I would not come again
to you in heaviness
.
But I determined this for
myself, that I would not come to you again
in sorrow
.
For if I make you sorry, who
is
he
then that
maketh
me glad ,
but the
same
which
is made sorry by me?
For if I make you sorry, then who
will
make
me glad but he
who
is made sorry by me?
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
.
And I wrote this very
thing
to
you, so
that
, when I came, I wouldn't
have sorrow from them of whom I ought to rejoice; having confidence in you all, that my joy would
be
shared
by
all
of you.
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.
For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote to
you with many tears ,
not that you
should be made
sorry
, but that you
might know the love that
I have so
abundantly for
you.
But if any have
caused grief
, he hath
not grieved
me, but in part :
that I may
not overcharge
you all.
But if any has
caused sorrow
, he has
caused
sorrow,
not to
me, but in part (
that I not press
too
heavily)
to
you all.
Sufficient to such a man
is this punishment ,
which was inflicted of
many .
Sufficient to such a one

the
many ;
So that contrariwise
ye
ought
rather to
forgive him ,
and comfort him, lest perhaps
such a one should be swallowed up with overmuch
sorrow.

the
contrary
you
should
rather forgive him and comfort him, lest by
any
means
such a one should be swallowed up with his
excessive
sorrow.
Wherefore
I beseech
you that
ye
would
confirm your love toward him.
Therefore
I beg
you to
confirm your love toward him.
For to this end also
did
I write
, that I might know the proof of you, whether ye
be
obedient in all things.
For to this end I also
wrote
, that I might know the proof of you, whether you
are
obedient in all things.
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 ;
Now
I also forgive
whomever
you
forgive
anything.
For if indeed
I have
forgiven
anything
, I have
forgiven
that
one
for your sakes in the presence
of Christ ,
Lest
Satan
should
get
an
advantage of
us :
for we are not ignorant of his devices
.
that
no
advantage may
be
gained
over
us by
Satan;
for we are not ignorant of his schemes
.
Furthermore,
when I came to Troas to
preach
Christ's
gospel, and a door was opened unto
me of
the Lord,
Now
when I came to Troas for
the
Gospel of
Christ
, and when
a door was opened to
me in
the Lord,
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.
I had no relief
for
my spirit, because I didn't
find
Titus ,
my brother ,
but taking my leave of them, I went out
into Macedonia.
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.
Now thanks be to
God, who
always leads
us in
triumph in Christ, and reveals
through
us
the sweet
aroma
of his knowledge in every place.
For we are unto
God
a sweet savour
of Christ, in them
that
are saved, and in them
that
perish :
For we are a sweet aroma
of Christ to
God
, in those
who
are saved, and in those
who
perish ;
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?
to the one a
stench
from
death to
death; to the other a
sweet
aroma
from
life to
life. Who is sufficient for these things?
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.
For we are not as so
many, peddling
the word of God .
But as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God ,
we speak
in Christ.
