Dual Panel1Having <2192> (5723) therefore <3767> these <5025> promises <1860>_, dearly beloved <27>_, let us cleanse <2511> (5661) ourselves <1438> from <575> all <3956> filthiness <3436> of the flesh <4561> and <2532> spirit <4151>_, perfecting <2005> (5723) holiness <42> in <1722> the fear <5401> of God <2316>_.
2Receive <5562> (5657) us <2248>_; we have wronged <91> (5656) no man <3762>_, we have corrupted <5351> (5656) no man <3762>_, we have defrauded <4122> (5656) no man <3762>_.
3I speak <3004> (5719) not <3756> [this] to <4314> condemn <2633> [you]: for <1063> I have said before <4280> (5758)_, that <3754> ye are <2075> (5748) in <1722> our <2257> hearts <2588> to <1519> die <4880> (5629) and <2532> live with <4800> (5721) [you].
4Great <4183> [is] my <3427> boldness of speech <3954> toward <4314> you <5209>_, great <4183> [is] my <3427> glorying <2746> of <5228> you <5216>_: I am filled <4137> (5769) with comfort <3874>_, I am exceeding <5248> (5731) joyful <5479> in <1909> all <3956> our <2257> tribulation <2347>_.
5For <1063> <2532>_, when we <2257> were come <2064> (5631) into <1519> Macedonia <3109>_, our <2257> flesh <4561> had <2192> (5758) no <3762> rest <425>_, but <235> we were troubled <2346> (5746) on <1722> every side <3956>_; without <1855> [were] fightings <3163>_, within <2081> [were] fears <5401>_.
6Nevertheless <235> God <2316>_, that comforteth <3870> (5723) those that are cast down <5011>_, comforted <3870> (5656) us <2248> by <1722> the coming <3952> of Titus <5103>_;
7And <1161> not <3756> by <1722> his <846> coming <3952> only <3440>_, but <235> <2532> by <1722> the consolation <3874> wherewith <3739> he was comforted <3870> (5681) in <1909> you <5213>_, when he told <312> (5723) us <2254> your <5216> earnest desire <1972>_, your <5216> mourning <3602>_, your <5216> fervent mind <2205> toward <5228> me <1700>_; so <5620> that I <3165> rejoiced <5463> (5646) the more <3123>_.
8For <3754> though <1499> I made <3076> (0) you <5209> sorry <3076> (5656) with <1722> a letter <1992>_, I do <3338> (0) not <3756> repent <3338> (5736)_, though <1499> I did repent <3338> (5711)_: for <1063> I perceive <991> (5719) that <3754> the same <1565> epistle <1992> hath made <3076> (0) you <5209> sorry <3076> (5656)_, though [it were] but <1499> for <4314> a season <5610>_.
9Now <3568> I rejoice <5463> (5719)_, not <3756> that <3754> ye were made sorry <3076> (5681)_, but <235> that <3754> ye sorrowed <3076> (5681) to <1519> repentance <3341>_: for <1063> ye were made sorry <3076> (5681) after <2596> a godly manner <2316>_, that <2443> ye might receive damage <2210> (5686) by <1537> us <2257> in <1722> nothing <3367>_. {after...: or, according to God}
10For <1063> godly <2316> <2596> sorrow <3077> worketh <2716> (5736) repentance <3341> to <1519> salvation <4991> not to be repented of <278>_: but <1161> the sorrow <3077> of the world <2889> worketh <2716> (5736) death <2288>_.
11For <1063> behold <2400> (5628) this <5124> selfsame thing <846>_, that <5209> ye sorrowed <3076> (5683) after <2596> a godly sort <2316>_, what <4214> carefulness <4710> it wrought <2716> (5662) in you <5213>_, yea <235>_, [what] clearing of yourselves <627>_, yea <235>_, [what] indignation <24>_, yea <235>_, [what] fear <5401>_, yea <235>_, [what] vehement desire <1972>_, yea <235>_, [what] zeal <2205>_, yea <235>_, [what] revenge <1557>_! In <1722> all <3956> [things] ye have approved <4921> (5656) yourselves <1438> to be <1511> (5750) clear <53> in <1722> this matter <4229>_.
12Wherefore <686>_, though <1499> I wrote <1125> (5656) unto you <5213>_, [I did it] not <3756> for his cause <1752> that had done the wrong <91> (5660)_, nor <3761> for his cause <1752> that suffered wrong <91> (5685)_, but <235> that <1752> our <2257> care <4710> for <5228> you <5216> in the sight <1799> of God <2316> might appear <5319> (5683) unto <4314> you <5209>_.
13Therefore <1223> <5124> we were comforted <3870> (5769) in <1909> your <5216> comfort <3874>_: yea, and <1161> exceedingly <4056> the more <3123> joyed we <5463> (5644) for <1909> the joy <5479> of Titus <5103>_, because <3754> his <846> spirit <4151> was refreshed <373> (5769) by <575> you <5216> all <3956>_.
14For <3754> if I have boasted <2744> (5766) any thing <1536> to him <846> of <5228> you <5216>_, I am <2617> (0) not <3756> ashamed <2617> (5681)_; but <235> as <5613> we spake <2980> (5656) all things <3956> to you <5213> in <1722> truth <225>_, even <2532> so <3779> our <2257> boasting <2746>_, which <3588> [I made] before <1909> Titus <5103>_, is found <1096> (5675) a truth <225>_.
15And <2532> his <846> inward affection <4698> is <2076> (5748) more abundant <4056> toward <1519> you <5209>_, whilst he remembereth <363> (5734) the obedience <5218> of you <5216> all <3956>_, how <5613> with <3326> fear <5401> and <2532> trembling <5156> ye received <1209> (5662) him <846>_. {inward...: Gr. bowels}
16I rejoice <5463> (5719) therefore that <3754> I have confidence <2292> (5719) in <1722> you <5213> in <1722> all <3956> [things].
