2 Corinthians 2:4-7

Sawyer(i) 4 For I wrote to you in much affliction and distress of mind with many tears, not that you should be grieved, but that you might know the love which I have abundantly for you. 5 (1:7) But if any one has caused grief, he has not grieved me, but in part, that I may not be hard upon you, [has grieved you] all, 6 Sufficient for such a one is this rebuke by many; 7 so that on the other hand you ought to forgive and comfort him, that he may not be overwhelmed with excessive sorrow.
