2nd Corinthians Chapter 2 American Standard-ASV1901

2nd Corinthians 2:1

But I determined this for myself, that I would not come again to you with sorrow.

2nd Corinthians 2:2

For if I make you sorry, who then is he that maketh me glad but he that is made sorry by me?

2nd Corinthians 2:3

And I wrote this very thing, lest, when I came, I should have sorrow from them of whom I ought to rejoice; having confidence in you all, that my joy is `the joy' of you all.

2nd Corinthians 2:4

For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote unto you with many tears; not that ye should be made sorry, but that ye might know the love that I have more abundantly unto you.

2nd Corinthians 2:5

But if any hath caused sorrow, he hath caused sorrow, not to me, but in part (that I press not too heavily) to you all.

2nd Corinthians 2:6

Sufficient to such a one is this punishment which was `inflicted' by the many;

2nd Corinthians 2:7

so that contrariwise ye should rather forgive him and comfort him, lest by any means such a one should be swallowed up with his overmuch sorrow.

2nd Corinthians 2:8

Wherefore I beseech you to confirm `your' love toward him.

2nd Corinthians 2:9

For to this end also did I write, that I might know the proof of you, whether ye are obedient in all things.

2nd Corinthians 2:10

But to whom ye forgive anything, I `forgive' also: for what I also have forgiven, if I have forgiven anything, for your sakes `have I forgiven it' in the presence of Christ;

2nd Corinthians 2:11

that no advantage may be gained over us by Satan: for we are not ignorant of his devices.

2nd Corinthians 2:12

Now when I came to Troas for the gospel of Christ, and when a door was opened unto me in the Lord,

2nd Corinthians 2:13

I had no relief for my spirit, because I found not Titus my brother: but taking my leave of them, I went forth into Macedonia.

2nd Corinthians 2:14

But thanks be unto God, who always leadeth us in triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest through us the savor of his knowledge in every place.

2nd Corinthians 2:15

For we are a sweet savor of Christ unto God, in them that are saved, and in them that perish;

2nd Corinthians 2:16

to the one a savor from death unto death; to the other a savor from life unto life. And who is sufficient for these things?

2nd Corinthians 2:17

For we are not as the many, corrupting the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God, speak we in Christ.
