Verse YLT Young's Literal Translation BSB Berean Standard Bible
Having , then , these promises, beloved, may we cleanse ourselves from every pollution of flesh and spirit, perfecting sanctification in the fear of God ;
Therefore , beloved , since we have these promises, let us cleanse ourselves from everything that defiles body and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God .
receive us ; no one did we wrong; no one did we waste; no one did we defraud;
Make room for us in your hearts. We have wronged no one , we have corrupted no one , we have exploited no one .
not to condemn you do I say `it', for I have said before that in our hearts ye are to die with and to live with ;
I do not say this to condemn you . I have said before that you so occupy our hearts that we live and die together with you.
great ` is ' my freedom of speech unto you , great my glory on your behalf ; I have been filled with the comfort, I overabound with the joy on all our tribulation,
Great is my confidence in you ; great is my pride in you ; I am filled with encouragement; in all our troubles my joy overflows.
for also we , having come to Macedonia, no relaxation hath our flesh had, but on every side we are in tribulation, without `are' fightings , within -- fears ;
For when we arrived in Macedonia, our bodies had no rest , but we were pressed from every direction—conflicts on the outside , fears within.
but He who is comforting the cast-down -- God -- He did comfort us in the presence of Titus ;
But God, who comforts the downcast, comforted us by the arrival of Titus ,
and not only in his presence , but also in the comfort with which he was comforted over you , declaring to us your longing desire , your lamentation , your zeal for me, so that the more I did rejoice,
and not only by his arrival , but also by the comfort he had received from you . He told us about your longing, your mourning , and your zeal for me, so that I rejoiced all the more .
because even if I made you sorry in the letter, I do not repent -- if even I did repent -- for I perceive that the letter, even if for an hour, did make you sorry .
Even if I caused you sorrow by my letter, I do not regret it. Although I did regret it, I now see that my letter caused you sorrow , but only for a short time .
I now do rejoice, not that ye were made sorry , but that ye were made sorry to reformation, for ye were made sorry toward God, that in nothing ye might receive damage from us ;
And now I rejoice, not because you were made sorrowful , but because your sorrow led you to repentance. For you felt the sorrow that God had intended , and so were not harmed in any way by us .
for the sorrow toward God reformation to salvation not to be repented of doth work , and the sorrow of the world doth work death ,
Godly sorrow brings repentance that leads to salvation without regret , but worldly sorrow brings death .
for, lo, this same thing -- your being made sorry toward God -- how much diligence it doth work in you ! but defence , but displeasure , but fear , but longing desire , but zeal, but revenge; in every thing ye did approve yourselves to be pure in the matter.
Consider what this godly sorrow has produced in you : what earnestness , what eagerness to clear yourselves , what indignation , what alarm, what longing, what zeal, what vindication! In every way you have proved yourselves to be innocent in this matter.
If, then, I also wrote to you -- not for his cause who did wrong , nor for his cause who did suffer wrong , but for our diligence in your behalf being manifested unto you before God --
So even though I wrote to you , it was not on account of the one who did wrong or the one who was harmed , but rather that your earnestness on our behalf would be made clear to you in the sight of God .
because of this we have been comforted in your comfort , and more abundantly the more did we rejoice in the joy of Titus , that his spirit hath been refreshed from you all ;
On account of this , we are encouraged. In addition to our own encouragement , we were even more delighted by the joy of Titus . For his spirit has been refreshed by all of you.
because if anything to him in your behalf I have boasted , I was not put to shame; but as all things in truth we did speak to you, so also our boasting before Titus became truth,
Indeed , I was not embarrassed by anything I had boasted to him about you. But just as everything we said to you was true , so our boasting to Titus has proved to be true as well.
and his tender affection is more abundantly toward you , remembering the obedience of you all , how with fear and trembling ye did receive him;
And his affection for you is even greater when he remembers that you were all obedient as you welcomed him with fear and trembling .
I rejoice , therefore, that in everything I have courage in you.
I rejoice that I can have complete confidence in you.
