1 | But I determined this for myself, that I would not come to you again in sorrow. | 2Co 1:15-17 Ac 11:29 Ac 15:2 Ac 15:37 1Co 2:2 1Co 5:3 Tit 3:12 |
2 | For if I make you sorry, then who will make me glad but he who is made sorry by me? | 2Co 1:14 2Co 11:29 Ro 12:15 1Co 12:26 |
3 | And I wrote this very thing to you, so that, when I came, I wouldn`t have sorrow from them of whom I ought to rejoice; having confidence in you all, that my joy is of you all. | 1Co 4:21 1Co 5:1-13 |
4 | For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote to you with many tears, not that you should be made sorry, but that you might know the love that I have so abundantly for you. | Lv 19:17 Lv 19:18 Ps 119:136 Pr 27:5 Pr 27:6 Jer 13:15-17 Lk 19:41-44 Ro 9:2 Ro 9:3 Php 3:18 |
5 | But if any has caused sorrow, he has caused sorrow, not to me, but in part (that I not press too heavily) to you all. | Pr 17:25 1Co 5:1-5 1Co 5:12-5 1Co 5:13-5 Ga 5:10 |
6 | Sufficient to such a one is this punishment which was inflicted by the many; | 2Co 13:10 1Co 5:4 1Co 5:5 1Ti 5:20 |
7 | so that on the contrary you should rather forgive him and comfort him, lest by any means such a one should be swallowed up with his excessive sorrow. | Ga 6:1 Ga 6:2 Eph 4:32 Col 3:13 2Th 3:6 2Th 3:14 2Th 3:15 Heb 12:12-15 |
8 | Therefore I beg you to confirm your love toward him. | Ga 5:13 Ga 6:1 Ga 6:2 Ga 6:10 Jud 1:22 Jud 1:23 |
9 | For to this end I also wrote, that I might know the proof of you, whether you are obedient in all things. | 2Co 7:12-15 2Co 8:24 Ex 16:4 Dt 8:2 Dt 8:16 Dt 13:3 Php 2:22 |
10 | Now I also forgive whomever you forgive anything. For if indeed I have forgiven anything, I have forgiven that one for your sakes in the presence of Christ, | 2Co 5:20 Mt 18:18 Jn 20:23 1Co 5:4 |
11 | that no advantage may be gained over us by Satan; for we are not ignorant of his schemes. | 2Co 11:3 2Co 11:14 1Ch 21:1 1Ch 21:2 Jb 1:11 Jb 2:3 Jb 2:5 Jb 2:9 Zc 3:1-4 Lk 22:31 Jn 13:2 Ac 1:25 1Co 7:5 Eph 6:11 Eph 6:12 2Ti 2:25 1Pe 5:8 Rev 2:24 Rev 12:9-11 Rev 13:8 |
12 | Now when I came to Troas for the gospel of Christ, and when a door was opened to me in the Lord, | Ac 16:8 Ac 20:1-6 Ac 20:8-6 |
13 | I had no relief for my spirit, because I didn`t find Titus, my brother, but taking my leave of them, I went forth into Macedonia. | 2Co 7:5 2Co 7:6 |
14 | But thanks be to God, who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and reveals through us the sweet aroma of his knowledge in every place. | 2Co 1:11 2Co 8:16 2Co 9:15 Eph 5:20 1Th 3:9 Rev 7:12 |
15 | For we are a sweet aroma of Christ to God, in those who are saved, and in those who perish; | Gn 8:21 Ex 29:18 Ex 29:25 Ezk 20:41 Eph 5:2 Php 4:18 |
16 | to the one a stench from death to death; to the other a sweet aroma from life to life. Who is sufficient for these things? | Lk 2:34 Jn 9:39 Ac 13:45-47 Ac 20:26 Ac 20:27 1Pe 2:7 1Pe 2:8 |
17 | For we are not as so many, peddling the word of God. But as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God, we speak in Christ. | 2Co 4:2 2Co 11:13-15 Jer 5:31 Jer 23:27-32 Mt 24:24 1Ti 1:19 1Ti 1:20 1Ti 4:1-3 2Ti 2:6-18 2Ti 4:3 2Ti 4:4 Tit 1:11 2Pe 2:1-3 1Jn 4:1 2Jn 1:7-11 Jud 1:4 Rev 2:14 Rev 2:15 Rev 2:20 Rev 12:9 Rev 19:20 |
