2 Corinthians 2:7

Overview - 2 Corinthians 2
1	Having shown the reason why he came not to them,
6	he requires them to forgive and to comfort that excommunicated person,
10	even as himself also upon his true repentance had forgiven him;
12	declaring withal why he departed from Troas to Macedonia,
14	and the happy success which God gave to his preaching in all places.

2 Corinthians 2:7  (King James Version)
So that contrariwise ye ought rather to forgive him, and comfort him, lest perhaps such a one should be swallowed up with overmuch sorrow.
