2 Corinthians 7:1 (NLT) New Living Translation

1 Because we have these promises, dear friends, let us cleanse ourselves from everything that can defile our body or spirit. And let us work toward complete holiness because we fear God.
2 Please open your hearts to us. We have not done wrong to anyone, nor led anyone astray, nor taken advantage of anyone.
3 I'm not saying this to condemn you. I said before that you are in our hearts, and we live or die together with you.
4 I have the highest confidence in you, and I take great pride in you. You have greatly encouraged me and made me happy despite all our troubles.
5 When we arrived in Macedonia, there was no rest for us. We faced conflict from every direction, with battles on the outside and fear on the inside.
6 But God, who encourages those who are discouraged, encouraged us by the arrival of Titus.
7 His presence was a joy, but so was the news he brought of the encouragement he received from you. When he told us how much you long to see me, and how sorry you are for what happened, and how loyal you are to me, I was filled with joy!
8 I am not sorry that I sent that severe letter to you, though I was sorry at first, for I know it was painful to you for a little while.
9 Now I am glad I sent it, not because it hurt you, but because the pain caused you to repent and change your ways. It was the kind of sorrow God wants his people to have, so you were not harmed by us in any way.
10 For the kind of sorrow God wants us to experience leads us away from sin and results in salvation. There's no regret for that kind of sorrow. But worldly sorrow, which lacks repentance, results in spiritual death.
11 Just see what this godly sorrow produced in you! Such earnestness, such concern to clear yourselves, such indignation, such alarm, such longing to see me, such zeal, and such a readiness to punish wrong. You showed that you have done everything necessary to make things right.
12 My purpose, then, was not to write about who did the wrong or who was wronged. I wrote to you so that in the sight of God you could see for yourselves how loyal you are to us.
13 We have been greatly encouraged by this.In addition to our own encouragement, we were especially delighted to see how happy Titus was about the way all of you welcomed him and set his mind at ease.
14 I had told him how proud I was of you-- and you didn't disappoint me. I have always told you the truth, and now my boasting to Titus has also proved true!
15 Now he cares for you more than ever when he remembers the way all of you obeyed him and welcomed him with such fear and deep respect.
16 I am very happy now because I have complete confidence in you.

4 Great G4183 A-NSF is my G3427 P-1DS boldness of speech G3954 N-NSF toward G4314 PREP you G5209 P-2AP , great G4183 A-NSF is my G3427 P-1DS glorying G2746 N-NSF of G5228 PREP you G5216 P-2GP : I G3588 T-DSF am filled G4137 V-RPI-1S with comfort G3874 N-DSF , I G3588 T-DSF am exceeding G5248 V-PMI-1S joyful G5479 N-DSF in G1909 PREP all G3956 A-DSF our G3588 T-DSF tribulation G2347 N-DSF .
5 For G1063 CONJ , when G2532 CONJ we G2257 P-1GP were come G2064 V-2AAP-GPM into G1519 PREP Macedonia G3109 N-ASF , our G3588 T-NSF flesh G4561 N-NSF had G2192 V-RAI-3S no G3762 A-ASF rest G425 N-ASF , but G235 CONJ we were troubled G2346 V-PPP-NPM on G1722 PREP every side G3956 A-DSN ; without G1855 ADV were fightings G3163 N-NPF , within G2081 ADV were fears G5401 N-NPM .
6 Nevertheless G235 CONJ God G2316 N-NSM , that G3588 T-APM comforteth G3870 V-PAP-NSM those that are cast down G5011 A-APM , comforted G3870 V-AAI-3S us G2248 P-1AP by G1722 PREP the G3588 T-DSF coming G3952 N-DSF of Titus G5103 N-GSM ;
7 And G1161 CONJ not G3756 PRT-N by G1722 PREP his G3588 T-DSF coming G3952 N-DSF only G3440 ADV , but G235 CONJ by G1722 PREP the G3588 T-DSF consolation G3874 N-DSF wherewith G3739 R-DSF he was comforted G3870 V-API-3S in G1909 PREP you G5213 P-2DP , when he told G312 V-PAP-NSM us G3588 T-ASF your G5216 P-2GP earnest desire G1972 N-ASF , your G5216 P-2GP mourning G3602 N-ASM , your G5216 P-2GP fervent mind G2205 N-ASM toward G5228 PREP me G1700 P-1GS ; so that G5620 CONJ I G3165 P-1AS rejoiced G5463 V-2AON the more G3123 ADV .
8 For G3754 CONJ though G1499 I made you sorry G3076 V-AAI-1S with G1722 PREP a letter G1992 N-DSF , I do not G3756 PRT-N repent G3338 V-PNI-1S , though G1499 I did repent G3338 V-INI-1S : for G1063 CONJ I perceive G991 V-PAI-1S that G3754 CONJ the G3588 T-DSF same G3588 T-NSF epistle G1992 N-NSF hath made you sorry G3076 V-AAI-3S , though G1499 it were but for G4314 PREP a season G5610 N-ASF .
9 Now G3568 ADV I rejoice G5463 V-PAI-1S , not G3756 PRT-N that G3754 CONJ ye were made sorry G3076 V-API-2P , but G235 CONJ that G3754 CONJ ye sorrowed G3076 V-API-2P to G1519 PREP repentance G3341 N-ASF : for G1063 CONJ ye were made sorry G3076 V-API-2P after a godly manner G2596 PREP , that G2443 CONJ ye might receive damage G2210 V-APS-2P by G1537 PREP us G2257 P-1GP in G1722 PREP nothing G3367 A-DSN .
10 For G1063 CONJ godly G2596 PREP sorrow G3077 N-NSF worketh G2716 V-PNI-3S repentance G3341 N-ASF to G1519 PREP salvation G4991 N-ASF not to be repented of G3588 T-NSF : but G1161 CONJ the G3588 T-NSF sorrow G3077 N-NSF of G3588 T-GSM the G3588 T-GSM world G2889 N-GSM worketh G2716 V-PNI-3S death G2288 N-ASM .
11 For G1063 CONJ behold G2400 V-2AAM-2S this G5124 D-NSN selfsame thing G846 P-NSN , that ye G5209 P-2AP sorrowed G3076 V-APN after a godly sort G2596 PREP , what G4214 Q-ASF carefulness G4710 N-ASF it wrought G2716 V-ADI-3S in you G5213 P-2DP , yea G235 CONJ , what clearing of yourselves G627 N-ASF , yea G235 CONJ , what indignation G24 N-ASF , yea G235 CONJ , what fear G5401 N-ASM , yea G235 CONJ , what vehement desire G1972 N-ASF , yea G235 CONJ , what zeal G2205 N-ASM , yea G235 CONJ , what revenge G1557 N-ASF ! In G1722 PREP all G3956 A-DSN things ye have approved G4921 V-AAI-2P yourselves G1438 F-3APM to be G1511 V-PXN clear G53 A-APM in G1722 PREP this matter G4229 N-DSN .
12 Wherefore G686 PRT , though G1499 I wrote G1125 V-AAI-1S unto you G5213 P-2DP , I did it not G3756 PRT-N for G3588 T-GSM his G3588 T-GSM cause G1752 ADV that had done the wrong G91 V-AAP-GSM , nor G3761 ADV for G3588 T-GSM his G3588 T-GSM cause G1752 ADV that suffered wrong G91 V-APP-GSM , but G235 CONJ that G3588 T-ASF our G3588 T-ASF care G4710 N-ASF for G5228 PREP you G5216 P-2GP in the G3588 T-GSM sight G1799 ADV of G3588 T-GSM God G2316 N-GSM might appear G5319 V-APN unto G4314 PREP you G5209 P-2AP .
13 Therefore G1223 PREP we were comforted G3870 V-RPI-1P in G1909 PREP your G3588 T-DSF comfort G3874 N-DSF : yea , and G1161 CONJ exceedingly G4056 ADV the more G3123 ADV joyed G5463 V-2AOI-1P we for G1909 PREP the G3588 T-DSF joy G5479 N-DSF of Titus G5103 N-GSM , because G3754 CONJ his G3588 T-NSN spirit G4151 N-NSN was refreshed G373 V-RPI-3S by G575 PREP you G5216 P-2GP all G3956 A-GPM .
14 For G3754 CONJ if I have boasted any thing G1536 to him G846 P-DSM of G5228 PREP you G5216 P-2GP , I am not ashamed G2617 V-API-1S ; but G235 CONJ as G5613 ADV we spake G2980 V-AAI-1P all things G3956 A-APN to you G5213 P-2DP in G1722 PREP truth G225 N-DSF , even G2532 CONJ so G3779 ADV our G3588 T-NSF boasting G2746 N-NSF , which G3588 T-NSF I made before G1909 PREP Titus G5103 N-GSM , is found G1096 V-AOI-3S a truth G225 N-NSF .
15 And G2532 CONJ his G3588 T-NPN inward affection G4698 N-NPN is G2076 V-PXI-3S more abundant G4056 ADV toward G1519 PREP you G5209 P-2AP , whilst he remembereth G363 V-PMP-GSM the G3588 T-NPN obedience G5218 N-ASF of G3588 T-ASF you G3588 T-ASF all G3956 A-GPM , how G5613 ADV with G3326 PREP fear G5401 N-GSM and G2532 CONJ trembling G5156 N-GSM ye received G1209 V-ADI-2P him G846 P-ASM .
16 I rejoice G5463 V-PAI-1S therefore G3767 that G3754 CONJ I have confidence G2292 V-PAI-1S in G1722 PREP you G5213 P-2DP in G1722 PREP all G3956 A-DSN things .
