1But I determined this with myself, to come to you again in sorrow.Select 2 Corinthians 2:1

2For if I make you sorrowful, who is he then that can make me glad, but the same who is made sorrowful by me?Select 2 Corinthians 2:2

3And I wrote this same to you: that I may not, when I come, have sorrow upon sorrow from them of whom I ought to rejoice: having confidence in you all, that my joy is the joy of you all.Select 2 Corinthians 2:3

4For out of much affliction and anguish of heart, I wrote to you with many tears: not that you should be made sorrowful: but that you might know the charity I have more abundantly towards you.Select 2 Corinthians 2:4

5And if any one have caused grief, he hath not grieved me: but in part, that I may not burden you all.Select 2 Corinthians 2:5

6To him who is such a one, this rebuke is sufficient, which is given by many.Select 2 Corinthians 2:6

7So that on the contrary, you should rather forgive him and comfort him, lest perhaps such a one be swallowed up with overmuch sorrow.Select 2 Corinthians 2:7

8Wherefore, I beseech you that you would confirm your charity towards him.Select 2 Corinthians 2:8

9For to this end also did I write, that I may know the experiment of you, whether you be obedient in all things.Select 2 Corinthians 2:9

10And to whom you have pardoned any thing, I also. For, what I have pardoned, if I have pardoned any thing, for your sakes have I done it in the person of Christ:Select 2 Corinthians 2:10

11That we be not overreached by Satan. For we are not ignorant of his devices.Select 2 Corinthians 2:11

12And when I was come to Troas for the gospel of Christ and a door was opened unto me in the Lord,Select 2 Corinthians 2:12

13I had no rest in my spirit, because I found not Titus my brother: but bidding them farewell, I went into Macedonia.Select 2 Corinthians 2:13

14Now thanks be to God, who always maketh us to triumph in Christ Jesus and manifesteth the odour of his knowledge by us in every place.Select 2 Corinthians 2:14

15For we are the good odour of Christ unto God, in them that are saved and in them that perish.Select 2 Corinthians 2:15

16To the one indeed the odour of death unto death: but to the others the odour of life unto life. And for these things who is so sufficient?Select 2 Corinthians 2:16

17For we are not as many, adulterating the word of God: but with sincerity: but as from God, before God, in Christ we speak.Select 2 Corinthians 2:17
