Second Corinthians 2: 1-5

2:1 But I determined this within myself, not to return again to you in sorrow.

2:2 For if I make you sorrowful, then who is it that can make me glad, except the one who is made sorrowful by me?

2:3 И так, I wrote this same thing to you, so that I might not, when I arrive, add sorrow to sorrow for those with whom I ought to rejoice, having confidence in you in all things, so that my joy may be entirely yours.

2:4 For with much tribulation and anguish of heart, I wrote to you with many tears: not so that you would be sorrowful, but so that you might know the charity that I have more abundantly toward you.

2:5 But if anyone has brought sorrow, he has not sorrowed me. Еще, for my part, this is so that I might not burden all of you.
