2 Corinthians 2:1-6

1 But I determined this with myself, that I would not come again to you in grief.
2 For if I make you grieve, who is he then that shall make me glad, but the same who is grieved by me?
3 And I wrote this same unto you, lest when I came, I should have grief from those of whom I ought to rejoice; having confidence in you all, that my joy is the joy of you all.
4 For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote unto you with many tears; not that ye should be grieved, but that ye might know how much more charity I have towards you.
5 But if any have caused me grief, he has not grieved me, but in part, that I may not put a burden on you all.
6 Sufficient to such a one is this reprehension, which was inflicted of many.
