2 Corinthians 7:3-10

1. 3 I speak not this to condemn you: for I have said before, that ye are in our hearts to die and live with you.

2. 4 Great is my boldness of speech toward you, great is my glorying of you: I am filled with comfort, I am exceeding joyful in all our tribulation.

3. 5 For, when we were come into Macedonia, our flesh had no rest, but we were troubled on every side; without were fightings, within were fears.

4. 6 Nevertheless God, that comforteth those that are cast down, comforted us by the coming of Titus;

5. 7 And not by his coming only, but by the consolation wherewith he was comforted in you, when he told us your earnest desire, your mourning, your fervent mind toward me; so that I rejoiced the more.

6. 8 For though I made you sorry with a letter, I do not repent, though I did repent: for I perceive that the same epistle hath made you sorry, though it were but for a season.

7. 9 Now I rejoice, not that ye were made sorry, but that ye sorrowed to repentance: for ye were made sorry after a godly manner, that ye might receive damage by us in nothing.

8. 10 For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.
