2:1 But 1161 I determined 2919 5656 this 5124 with myself 1683, that I would 2064 0 not 3361 come 2064 5629 again 3825 to 4314 you 5209 in 1722 heaviness 3077.

2:2 For 1063 if 1487 I 1473 make 3076 0 you 5209 sorry 3076 5719, who 5101 is he 2076 5748 then 2532 that maketh 2165 0 me 3165 glad 2165 5723, but 1508 the same which is made sorry 3076 5746 by 1537 me 1700?

2:3 And 2532 I wrote 1125 5656 this 5124 same 846 unto you 5213, lest 3363, when I came 2064 5631, I should have 2192 5725 sorrow 3077 from 575 them of whom 3739 I 3165 ought 1163 5713 to rejoice 5463 5721; having confidence 3982 5756 in 1909 you 5209 all 3956, that 3754 my 1699 joy 5479 is 2076 5748 [the joy] of you 5216 all 3956.

2:4 For 1063 out of 1537 much 4183 affliction 2347 and 2532 anguish 4928 of heart 2588 I wrote 1125 5656 unto you 5213 with 1223 many 4183 tears 1144; not 3756 that 2443 ye should be grieved 3076 5686, but 235 that 2443 ye might know 1097 5632 the love 26 which 3739 I have 2192 5719 more abundantly 4056 unto 1519 you 5209.

2:5 But 1161 if any 1536 have caused grief 3076 5758, he hath 3076 0 not 3756 grieved 3076 5758 me 1691, but 235 in 575 part 3313: that 3363 0 I may 1912 0 not 3363 overcharge 1912 5725 you 5209 all 3956.

2:6 Sufficient 2425 to such a man 5108 [is] this 3778 punishment 2009, which 3588 [was inflicted] of 5259 many 4119.(punishment: or, censure)

2:7 So 5620 that contrariwise 5121 ye 5209 [ought] rather 3123 to forgive 5483 5664 [him], and 2532 comfort 3870 5658 [him], lest 3381 perhaps 4458 such a one 5108 should be swallowed up 2666 5686 with overmuch 4055 sorrow 3077.

2:8 Wherefore 1352 I beseech 3870 5719 you 5209 that ye would confirm 2964 5658 [your] love 26 toward 1519 him 846.

2:9 For 1063 to 1519 this end 5124 also 2532 did I write 1125 5656, that 2443 I might know 1097 5632 the proof 1382 of you 5216, whether 1487 ye be 2075 5748 obedient 5255 in 1519 all things 3956.

2:10 1161 To whom 3739 ye forgive 5483 5736 any thing 5100, I 1473 [forgive] also 2532: for 2532 1063 if I 1473 forgave 5483 5766 any thing 1536, to whom 3739 I forgave 5483 5766 [it], for your sakes 1223 5209 [forgave I it] in 1722 the person 4383 of Christ 5547;(person: or, sight)(in the person: or, in the sight)

2:11 Lest 3363 Satan 5259 4567 should get an advantage of us 4122 5686: for 1063 we are not 3756 ignorant 50 5719 of his 846 devices 3540.

2:12 Furthermore 1161, when I came 2064 5631 to 1519 Troas 5174 to 1519 [preach] Christ's 5547 gospel 2098, and 2532 a door 2374 was opened 455 5772 unto me 3427 of 1722 the Lord 2962,

2:13 I had 2192 5758 no 3756 rest 425 in my 3450 spirit 4151, because I 3165 found 2147 5629 not 3361 Titus 5103 my 3450 brother 80: but 235 taking my leave 657 5671 of them 846, I went from thence 1831 5627 into 1519 Macedonia 3109.

2:14 Now 1161 thanks 5485 [be] unto God 2316, which always 3842 causeth 2358 0 us 2248 to triumph 2358 5723 in 1722 Christ 5547, and 2532 maketh manifest 5319 5723 the savour 3744 of his 846 knowledge 1108 by 1223 us 2257 in 1722 every 3956 place 5117.

2:15 For 3754 we are 2070 5748 unto God 2316 a sweet savour 2175 of Christ 5547, in 1722 them that are saved 4982 5746, and 2532 in 1722 them that perish 622 5730:

2:16 To 3739 the one 3303 [we are] the savour 3744 of death 2288 unto 1519 death 2288; and 1161 to the other 3739 the savour 3744 of life 2222 unto 1519 life 2222. And 2532 who 5101 [is] sufficient 2425 for 4314 these things 5023?

2:17 For 1063 we are 2070 5748 not 3756 as 5613 many 4183, which corrupt 2585 5723 the word 3056 of God 2316: but 235 as 5613 of 1537 sincerity 1505, but 235 as 5613 of 1537 God 2316, in the sight 2714 of God 2316 speak we 2980 5719 in 1722 Christ 5547.(corrupt: or, deal deceitfully with)(in Christ: or, of Christ)
