2Corinthians:7:2-16
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Make room for us .
We wronged no one ,
we corrupted no one ,
we overreached no one .
*
I do not speak [
this ]
to condemn you ,
for I have said before that you are in our hearts for [
us ]
to die together ,
and to live together .
*
My boldness of speech [
is ]
great toward you ;
my glorying on your behalf [
is ]
much .
I have been filled with comfort ,
I am overflowing with joy on all our trouble .
*
For ,
indeed ,
coming into Macedonia ,
our flesh had no rest ,
but being troubled in every way , [
with ]
fightings [
on the ]
outside ,
and fears [
on the ]
inside .
*
But He who comforts the lowly comforted us by the coming of Titus .
*
And not only by his coming ,
but by the comfort with which he was comforted over you ,
telling us your longing ,
your mourning ,
your zeal for me ;
so that I rejoiced the more .
*
For even if I grieved you in the letter ,
I do not regret ;
if indeed I did regret ;
for I see that that letter grieved you for an hour .
*
Now I rejoice ,
not that you were grieved ,
but that you grieved to repentance .
For you were grieved according to God ,
so that you might suffer loss by nothing in us .
*
For the grief according to God works repentance to salvation ,
not to be regretted ,
but the grief of the world works out death .
*
For behold this same thing (
you being grieved according to God );
how much it worked out earnestness in you ;
but [
also ]
defense ;
but [
also ]
indignation ;
but [
also ]
fear ;
but [
also desire ;
but [
also ]
zeal ;
but also ]
vengeance !
In everything you approved yourselves to be clear in the matter .
*
Then ,
though I wrote to you , [
it was ]
not on account of the one who did wrong ,
nor on account of the one who suffered wrong ,
but for the sake of revealing our earnestness on your behalf ,
for you before God .
*
Therefore we have been comforted in your comfort ,
and we rather rejoiced more abundantly over the joy of Titus ,
because his spirit was refreshed by you all .
*
For if I have boasted anything about you to him ,
I was not ashamed .
But as we spoke all things to you in truth ,
even so our boasting as to Titus became truth .
*
And his tender feelings are more abundant toward you ,
remembering the obedience of you all ,
as you received him with fear and trembling .
*
Therefore I rejoice that I have confidence in you in everything .
