Read 2 Corinthians 2 in full →2But I determined this 1for my own sake, that I awould not come to you again in sorrow. 2For if I acause you sorrow, who then makes me glad but the one whom I made sorrowful? 3And this is the very thing I awrote you, so that bwhen I came, I would not have sorrow from those who ought to make me rejoice; having cconfidence in you all that my joy would be the joy of you all. 4For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I awrote to you with many tears; not so that you would be made sorrowful, but that you might know the love which I have abundantly for you.
