2:1 | But I determined this with myself, that I would not come again to you in heaviness. |
2:2 | For if I make you sorry, who is he then that maketh me glad, but the same which is made sorry by me? |
2:3 | And I wrote this same unto you, 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. |
2:4 | For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote unto you with many tears; not that ye should be grieved, but that ye might know the love which I have more abundantly unto you. |
2:5 | But if any have caused grief, he hath not grieved me, but in part: that I may not overcharge you all. |
2:6 | Sufficient to such a man is this punishment, which was inflicted of many. |
2:7 | So that contrariwise ye ought rather to forgive him, and comfort him, lest perhaps such a one should be swallowed up with overmuch sorrow. |
2:8 | Wherefore I beseech you that ye would confirm your love toward him. |
2:9 | For to this end also did I write, that I might know the proof of you, whether ye be obedient in all things. |
2:10 | To whom ye forgive any thing, I forgive also: for if I forgave any thing, to whom I forgave it, for your sakes forgave I it in the person of Christ; |
2:11 | Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. |
2:12 | Furthermore, when I came to Troas to preach Christ's gospel, and a door was opened unto me of the Lord, |
2:13 | I had no rest in my spirit, because I found not Titus my brother: but taking my leave of them, I went from thence into Macedonia. |
2:14 | Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place. |
2:15 | For we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ, in them that are saved, and in them that perish: |
2:16 | To the one we are the savour of death unto death; and to the other the savour of life unto life. And who is sufficient for these things? |
2:16 | 在這等人、就作了死的香氣叫他死.在那等人、就作了活的香氣叫他活.這事誰能當得起呢。 |
2:16 | 在这等人,就作了死的香气叫他死。在那等人,就作了活的香气叫他活。这事谁能当得起呢。 |
1pe:2:7 | Unto you therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner, |
1pe:2:8 | And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed. |
2co:3:5 | Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think any thing as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God; |
2co:3:6 | Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life. |

2:17 | For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ. |
