¹ G1161 But G2919 I determined [G5656]   G5124 this G1683 with myself G2064 , that I would G3361 not G2064 come [G5629]   G3825 again G4314 to G5209 you G1722 in G3077 heaviness.

² G1063 For G1487 if G1473 I G3076 make G5209 you G3076 sorry [G5719]   G5101 , who G2076 is he [G5748]   G2532 then G2165 that maketh G3165 me G2165 glad [G5723]   G1508 , but G3076 the same which is made sorry [G5746]   G1537 by G1700 me?

³ G2532 And G1125 I wrote [G5656]   G5124 this G846 same G5213 unto you G3363 , lest G2064 , when I came [G5631]   G2192 , I should have [G5725]   G3077 sorrow G575 from G3739 them of whom G3165 I G1163 ought [G5713]   G5463 to rejoice [G5721]   G3982 ; having confidence [G5756]   G1909 in G5209 you G3956 all G3754 , that G1699 my G5479 joy G2076 is [G5748]   G5216 the joy of you G3956 all.

⁴ G1063 For G1537 out of G4183 much G2347 affliction G2532 and G4928 anguish G2588 of heart G1125 I wrote [G5656]   G5213 unto you G1223 with G4183 many G1144 tears G3756 ; not G2443 that G3076 ye should be grieved [G5686]   G235 , but G2443 that G1097 ye might know [G5632]   G26 the love G3739 which G2192 I have [G5719]   G4056 more abundantly G1519 unto G5209 you.

⁵ G1161 But G1536 if any G3076 have caused grief [G5758]   G3076 , he hath G3756 not G3076 grieved [G5758]   G1691 me G235 , but G575 in G3313 part G3363 : that G1912 I may G3363 not G1912 overcharge [G5725]   G5209 you G3956 all.

⁶ G2425 Sufficient G5108 to such a man G3778 is this G2009 punishment G3588 , which G5259 was inflicted of G4119 many.

⁷ G5620 So G5121 that contrariwise G5209 ye G3123 ought rather G5483 to forgive [G5664]   G2532 him, and G3870 comfort [G5658]   G3381 him, lest G4458 perhaps G5108 such a one G2666 should be swallowed up [G5686]   G4055 with overmuch G3077 sorrow.

⁸ G1352 Wherefore G3870 I beseech [G5719]   G5209 you G2964 that ye would confirm [G5658]   G26 your love G1519 toward G846 him.

⁹ G1063 For G1519 to G5124 this end G2532 also G1125 did I write [G5656]   G2443 , that G1097 I might know [G5632]   G1382 the proof G5216 of you G1487 , whether G2075 ye be [G5748]   G5255 obedient G1519 in G3956 all things.

¹⁰ G1161   G3739 To whom G5483 ye forgive [G5736]   G5100 any thing G1473 , I G2532 forgive also G2532 : for G1063   G1473 if I G5483 forgave [G5766]   G1536 any thing G3739 , to whom G5483 I forgave [G5766]   G1223 it, for your sakes G5209   G1722 forgave I it in G4383 the person G5547 of Christ;

¹¹ G3363 Lest G5259 Satan G4567   G4122 should get an advantage of us [G5686]   G1063 : for G3756 we are not G50 ignorant [G5719]   G846 of his G3540 devices.

¹² G1161 Furthermore G2064 , when I came [G5631]   G1519 to G5174 Troas G1519 to G5547 preach Christ's G2098 gospel G2532 , and G2374 a door G455 was opened [G5772]   G3427 unto me G1722 of G2962 the Lord,

¹³ G2192 I had [G5758]   G3756 no G425 rest G3450 in my G4151 spirit G3165 , because I G2147 found [G5629]   G3361 not G5103 Titus G3450 my G80 brother G235 : but G657 taking my leave [G5671]   G846 of them G1831 , I went from thence [G5627]   G1519 into G3109 Macedonia.

¹⁴ G1161 Now G5485 thanks G2316 be unto God G3842 , which always G2358 causeth G2248 us G2358 to triumph [G5723]   G1722 in G5547 Christ G2532 , and G5319 maketh manifest [G5723]   G3744 the savour G846 of his G1108 knowledge G1223 by G2257 us G1722 in G3956 every G5117 place.

¹⁵ G3754 For G2070 we are [G5748]   G2316 unto God G2175 a sweet savour G5547 of Christ G1722 , in G4982 them that are saved [G5746]   G2532 , and G1722 in G622 them that perish [G5730]  :

¹⁶ G3739 To G3303 the one G3744 we are the savour G2288 of death G1519 unto G2288 death G1161 ; and G3739 to the other G3744 the savour G2222 of life G1519 unto G2222 life G2532 . And G5101 who G2425 is sufficient G4314 for G5023 these things?

¹⁷ G1063 For G2070 we are [G5748]   G3756 not G5613 as G4183 many G2585 , which corrupt [G5723]   G3056 the word G2316 of God G235 : but G5613 as G1537 of G1505 sincerity G235 , but G5613 as G1537 of G2316 God G2714 , in the sight G2316 of God G2980 speak we [G5719]   G1722 in G5547 Christ.
