2 For if I make you sorry, who is he then that maketh me glad, but the same which is made sorry by me?
2
For if I grieve you, who is left to make me glad but you whom I have grieved?
3 And I wrote this same unto you, lest, when I came, I should have sorrow from them of whom I ought to rejoice; having confidence in you all, that my joy is the joy of you all.
3
I wrote as I did, so that when I came I would not be distressed by those who should have made me rejoice. I had confidence in all of you, that you would all share my joy.
