2 Corinthians 2:1-4

Reaffirm Your Love

^{Tools
1} But I determined this ^(a)for my own sake, that I ^(A)would not come to you in sorrow again. ^{Tools
2} For if I ^(B)cause you sorrow, who then makes me glad but the one whom I made sorrowful? ^{Tools
3} This is the very thing I ^(C)wrote you, so that ^(D)when I came, I would not have sorrow from those who ought to make me rejoice; having ^(E)confidence in you all that my joy would be the joy of you all. ^{Tools
4} For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I ^(F)wrote to you with many tears; not so that you would be made sorrowful, but that you might know the love which I have especially for you.
