2nd Corinthians 7:6

3 It is not with the purpose of judging you that I say this: for I have said before that you are in our hearts for life and death together.

4 My words to you are without fear, I am full of pride on account of you: I have great comfort and joy in all our troubles.

5 For even when we had come into Macedonia our flesh had no rest, but we were troubled on every side; there were fightings outside and fears inside.

6 But God who gives comfort to the poor in spirit gave us comfort by the coming of Titus;

7 And not by his coming only, but by the comfort which he had in you, while he gave us word of your desire, your sorrow, your care for me; so that I was still more glad.

8 For though my letter gave you pain, I have no regret for it now, though I had before; for I see that the letter gave you pain, but only for a time.

9 Now I am glad, not that you had sorrow, but that your sorrow was the cause of a change of heart; for yours was a holy sorrow so that you might undergo no loss by us in anything.
