[1] But I determined this for myself, that I would not come to you again in sorrow. [2] For if I make you grieve, then who will make me glad but he who is made to grieve by me? [3] 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. [4] For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote to you with many tears, not that you should be made to grieve, but that you might know the love that I have so abundantly for you. [5] 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. [6] This punishment which was inflicted by the many is sufficient for such a one; [7] so that, on 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. [8] Therefore I beg you to confirm your love toward him. [9] For to this end I also wrote, that I might know the proof of you, whether you are obedient in all things. [10] 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, [11] that no advantage may be gained over us by Satan, for we are not ignorant of his schemes. [12] Now when I came to Troas for the Good News of Christ, and when a door was opened to me in the Lord, [13] 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. [14] 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. [15] For we are a sweet aroma of Christ to God in those who are saved and in those who perish: [16] 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? [17] 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.
King James Version
[1] ButG1161 I determinedG2919(AorActInd) thisG5124 with myself,G1683 that I wouldG2064 notG3361 comeG2064(Aor2ActInf) againG3825 toG4314 youG5209 inG1722 heaviness.G3077 [2] ForG1063 ifG1487 IG1473 makeG3076 youG5209 sorry,G3076(PresActInd) whoG5101 is heG2076(PresInd) thenG2532 that makethG2165 meG3165 glad,G2165(PresActPtc) butG1508 the same which is made sorryG3076(PresPasPtc) byG1537 me?G1700 [3] AndG2532 I wroteG1125(AorActInd) thisG5124 sameG846 unto you,G5213 lest,G3363 when I came,G2064(Aor2ActPtc) I should haveG2192(PresActSubj) sorrowG3077 fromG575 them of whomG3739 IG3165 oughtG1163(ImpfInd) to rejoice;G5463(PresActInf) having confidenceG3982(Perf2ActPtc) inG1909 youG5209 all,G3956 thatG3754 myG1699 joyG5479 isG2076(PresInd) [the joy] of youG5216 all.G3956 [4] ForG1063 out ofG1537 muchG4183 afflictionG2347 andG2532 anguishG4928 of heartG2588 I wroteG1125(AorActInd) unto youG5213 withG1223 manyG4183 tears;G1144 notG3756 thatG2443 ye should be grieved,G3076(AorPasSubj) butG235 thatG2443 ye might knowG1097(Aor2ActSubj) the loveG26 whichG3739 I haveG2192(PresActInd) more abundantlyG4056 untoG1519 you.G5209 [5] ButG1161 if anyG1536 have caused grief,G3076(PerfActInd) he hathG3076 notG3756 grievedG3076(PerfActInd) me,G1691 butG235 inG575 part:G3313 thatG3363 I mayG1912 notG3363 overchargeG1912(PresActSubj) youG5209 all.G3956 [6] SufficientG2425 to such a manG5108 [is] thisG3778 punishment,G2009 whichG3588 [was inflicted] ofG5259 many.G4119 [7] SoG5620 that contrariwiseG5121 yeG5209 [ought] ratherG3123 to forgiveG5483(AorMidDepInf) [him], andG2532 comfortG3870(AorActInf) [him], lestG3381 perhapsG4458 such a oneG5108 should be swallowed upG2666(AorPasSubj) with overmuchG4055 sorrow.G3077 [8] WhereforeG1352 I beseechG3870(PresActInd) youG5209 that ye would confirmG2964(AorActInf) [your] loveG26 towardG1519 him.G846 [9] ForG1063 toG1519 this endG5124 alsoG2532 did I write,G1125(AorActInd) thatG2443 I might knowG1097(Aor2ActSubj) the proofG1382 of you,G5216 whetherG1487 ye beG2075(PresInd) obedientG5255 inG1519 all things.G3956 [10] To whomG3739 ye forgiveG5483(PresMidPasDepInd) any thing,G5100 IG1473 [forgive] also:G2532 forG2532 if IG1473 forgaveG5483(PerfMidPasDepInd) any thing,G1536 to whomG3739 I forgaveG5483(PerfMidPasDepInd) [it], for your sakesG1223 [forgave I it] inG1722 the personG4383 of Christ;G5547 [11] LestG3363 SatanG5259 should get an advantage of us:G4122(AorPasSubj) forG1063 we are notG3756 ignorantG50(PresActInd) of hisG846 devices.G3540 [12] Furthermore,G1161 when I cameG2064(Aor2ActPtc) toG1519 TroasG5174 toG1519 [preach] Christ’sG5547 gospel,G2098 andG2532 a doorG2374 was openedG455(PerfPasPtc) unto meG3427 ofG1722 the Lord,G2962 [13] I hadG2192(PerfActInd) noG3756 restG425 in myG3450 spirit,G4151 because IG3165 foundG2147(Aor2ActInf) notG3361 TitusG5103 myG3450 brother:G80 butG235 taking my leaveG657(AorMidPtc) of them,G846 I went from thenceG1831(Aor2ActInd) intoG1519 Macedonia.G3109 [14] NowG1161 thanksG5485 [be] unto God,G2316 which alwaysG3842 causethG2358 usG2248 to triumphG2358(PresActPtc) inG1722 Christ,G5547 andG2532 maketh manifestG5319(PresActPtc) the savourG3744 of hisG846 knowledgeG1108 byG1223 usG2257 inG1722 everyG3956 place.G5117 [15] ForG3754 we areG2070(PresInd) unto GodG2316 a sweet savourG2175 of Christ,G5547 inG1722 them that are saved,G4982(PresPasPtc) andG2532 inG1722 them that perish:G622(PresMidPasPtc) [16] ToG3739 the oneG3303 [we are] the savourG3744 of deathG2288 untoG1519 death;G2288 andG1161 to the otherG3739 the savourG3744 of lifeG2222 untoG1519 life.G2222 AndG2532 whoG5101 [is] sufficientG2425 forG4314 these things?G5023 [17] ForG1063 we areG2070(PresInd) notG3756 asG5613 many,G4183 which corruptG2585(PresActPtc) the wordG3056 of God:G2316 butG235 asG5613 ofG1537 sincerity,G1505 butG235 asG5613 ofG1537 God,G2316 in the sightG2714 of GodG2316 speak weG2980(PresActInd) inG1722 Christ.G5547
