Having{G2192} therefore{G3767} these{G3778} promises,{G1860} beloved,{G27} let us cleanse{G2511} ourselves{G1438} from{G575} all{G3956} defilement{G3436} of flesh{G4561} and{G2532} spirit,{G4151} perfecting{G2005} holiness{G42} in{G1722} the fear{G5401} of God.{G2316}

Open your hearts{G5562} to us:{G2248} we wronged{G91} no man,{G3762} we corrupted{G5351} no man,{G3762} we took advantage{G4122} of no man.{G3762}

I say{G3004} it not{G3756} to{G4314} condemn{G2633} [you]: for{G1063} I have said before,{G4280} that{G3754} ye are{G2075} in{G1722} our{G2257} hearts{G2588} to{G1519} die{G4880} together and{G2532} live{G4800} together.

Great{G4183} is my{G3427} boldness of speech{G3954} toward{G4314} you,{G5209} great{G4183} is my{G3427} glorying{G2746} on your{G5216} behalf:{G5228} I am filled{G4137} with comfort,{G3874} I overflow{G5248} with joy{G5479} in{G1909} all{G3956} our{G2257} affliction.{G2347}

For{G1063} even when{G2532} we were come{G2064} into{G1519} Macedonia{G3109} our{G2257} flesh{G4561} had{G2192} no{G3762} relief,{G425} but{G235} [we]{G2257} [were] afflicted{G2346} on{G1722} every side;{G3956} without{G1855} [were] fightings,{G3163} within{G2081} [were] fears.{G5401}

Nevertheless{G235} he that comforteth{G3870} the{G3588} lowly,{G5011} [even] God,{G2316} comforted{G3870} us{G2248} by{G1722} the coming{G3952} of Titus;{G5103}

and{G1161} not{G3756} by{G1722} his{G846} coming{G3952} only,{G3440} but{G235} also{G2532} by{G1722} the comfort{G3874} wherewith{G3739} he was comforted{G3870} in{G1909} you,{G5213} while he told{G312} us{G2254} your{G5216} longing,{G1972} your{G5216} mourning,{G3602} your{G5216} zeal{G2205} for{G5228} me;{G1700} so that{G5620} I{G3165} rejoiced{G5463} yet more.{G3123}

For{G1487} though{G2532} I made{G3076} you{G5209} sorry with{G1722} my epistle,{G1992} I do{G3338} not{G3756} regret{G3338} it: though{G1487} {G2532} I did regret{G3338} [it] (for{G1063} I see{G991} that{G3754} that{G1565} epistle{G1992} made{G3076} you{G5209} sorry,{G3076} though{G1487} but{G2532} for{G4314} a season),{G5610}

I now{G3568} rejoice,{G5463} not{G3756} that{G3754} ye were made sorry,{G3076} but{G235} that{G3754} ye were made sorry{G3076} unto{G1519} repentance;{G3341} for{G1063} ye were made sorry{G3076} after{G2596} a godly sort,{G2316} that{G2443} ye might suffer loss{G2210} by{G1537} us{G2257} in{G1722} nothing.{G3367}

For{G1063} {G2596} godly{G2316} sorrow{G3077} worketh{G2716} repentance{G3341} unto{G1519} salvation,{G4991} [a repentance]{G278} which bringeth no regret: but{G1161} the sorrow{G3077} of the world{G2889} worketh{G2716} death.{G2288}

For{G1063} behold,{G2400} this{G5124} selfsame thing,{G846} that{G3076} ye{G5209} were made sorry{G3076} after{G2596} a godly sort,{G2316} what{G4214} earnest care{G4710} it wrought{G2716} in you,{G5213} yea{G235} what clearing of yourselves,{G627} yea{G235} what indignation,{G24} yea{G235} what fear,{G5401} yea{G235} what longing,{G1972} yea{G235} what zeal,{G2205} yea{G235} what avenging!{G1557} In{G1722} everything{G3956} ye approved{G4921} yourselves{G1438} to be{G1511} pure{G53} in{G1722} the matter.{G4229}

So{G686} although{G1487} {G2532} I wrote{G1125} unto you,{G5213} I [wrote] not{G3756} for his cause{G1752} that{G3588} did the wrong,{G91} nor{G3761} for his cause{G1752} that suffered the wrong,{G91} but{G235} that your{G2257} earnest care{G4710} for{G5228} us{G2257} might be made manifest{G5319} unto{G4314} you{G5209} in the sight{G1799} of God.{G2316}

Therefore{G1223} {G5124} we have been comforted:{G3870} And{G1161} in{G1909} our{G5216} comfort{G3874} we{G5463} joyed the more{G3123} exceedingly{G4056} for{G1909} the joy{G5479} of Titus,{G5103} because{G3754} his{G846} spirit{G4151} hath been refreshed{G373} by{G575} you{G5216} all.{G3956}

For{G3754} if{G1487} in anything{G5100} I have gloried{G2744} to him{G846} on your{G5216} behalf,{G5228} I was{G2617} not{G3756} put to shame;{G2617} but{G235} as{G5613} we spake{G2980} all things{G3956} to you{G5213} in{G1722} truth,{G225} so{G3779} our{G2257} glorying{G2746} also{G2532} which{G3588} I made before{G1909} Titus{G5103} was found{G1096} to be truth.{G225}

And{G2532} his{G846} affection{G4698} is{G2076} more abundantly{G4056} toward{G1519} you,{G5209} while he remembereth{G363} the obedience{G5218} of you{G5216} all,{G3956} how{G5613} with{G3326} fear{G5401} and{G2532} trembling{G5156} ye received{G1209} him.{G846}

I rejoice{G5463} {G3754} that{G1722} in{G3956} everything{G2292} I am of good courage{G1722} concerning{G3956} you.{G5213}
