2 Corinthians
Chapter 7
7:1 Therefore beloved, having these promises, we should cleanse ourselves from all defilement of flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.
7:2 Make room for us: we wronged no one, we corrupted no one, we took-advantage of no one.
7:3 I am not saying this toward your * condemnation; for* I have said before, that you* are in our hearts, *that* we may die together and we may live together.
7:4 My boldness of speech toward you* is much; my boasting on your* behalf is much. I am filled with comfort. I overflow with joy in all our affliction.
7:5 For* even when we had come into Macedonia our flesh had no relief, but we were afflicted in every way; outside were quarrels, inside were fears.
7:6 But God, who encourages the humble, encouraged us by the presence of Titus;
7:7 and not only by his presence, but also by the encouragement with which he was encouraged in you*, while reporting to us your* longing, your* anguish, your* zeal on my behalf; so-that I rejoiced yet more.
7:8 Because even if I made you* sorry with my letter, I am not regretting it; even if I did regret it. For* I see that the letter made you* sorry, even if but for a season.
7:9 I now rejoice, not that you* were made sorry, but that you* were made sorry to repentance; for* you* were made sorry according to the will of God, in order that you* might suffer-damage in nothing from us.
7:10 For* the sorrow that is according to the will of God is working unregrettable repentance *for salvation, but the sorrow of the world is working death.
7:11 For* behold how much diligence this thing, (your* being sorry according to the will of God), has worked in you*: a defense, indignation, fear, longing, zeal, vengeance! In everything you* commend yourselves to be pure in the matter.
7:12 Consequently, if I also wrote to you*, I did not write because of he who did wrong, nor because of he who had been wronged, but because of your* diligent-aid on our behalf might be made manifest to you* in the sight of God.
7:13 Because of this, we have been comforted in your* comfort, we rejoiced even-more upon the joy of Titus, because his spirit has been given-rest by all of you*.
7:14 Because if I have boasted in anything on your* behalf to him, I was not ashamed, but as we spoke all things to you* in truth, so also, our boasting which was before Titus became truth.
7:15 And his affection is even-more toward you*, while he is remembering the obedience of you* all, how with fear and trembling you* accepted him.
7:16 I rejoice that in everything I have courage in you*.
