Whiston(i)
3 I speak not this to condemn [you]: for I have said before, that you are in our hearts to die and live with [you].
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 our manifold tribulation.
5 For when we were come into Macedonia, our flesh had no rest, but we were troubled on every side; without fightings, within fears.
6 Nevertheless, God that comforteth those that are cast down, comforted us by the coming of Titus:
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.
8 For though I made you sorry with my epistle, I do not repent, though I did repent: for I perceive that the same epistle made you sorry, though but for a season.
9 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.
10 For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.
