9 Maintenant je me réjouis, non de ce que vous avez été attristés, mais de ce que votre tristesse vous a portés à la repentance; car vous avez été attristés selon Dieu, en sorte que vous n'avez reçu aucun dommage de notre part.
9
yet now I am happy, not because you were made sorry, but because your sorrow led you to repentance. For you became sorrowful as God intended and so were not harmed in any way by us.
