15 And his affection for you is all the greater when he remembers that you were all obedient, ( V) receiving him with fear and trembling. It is everybody’s experience that gets a look at Jesus.
From seeing with the eyes he has gone to earnest, thoughtful gazing, caught with the vision of what he saw. But just as everything we said to you was true, so our boasting about you to Titus ( U) has proved to be true as well. He says, that which we have seen with our eyes, that which we beheld.
14 I had boasted to him about you, ( T) and you have not embarrassed me. In addition to our own encouragement, we were especially delighted to see how happy Titus ( S) was, because his spirit has been refreshed by all of you. 12 So even though I wrote to you, ( Q) it was neither on account of the one who did the wrong ( R) nor on account of the injured party, but rather that before God you could see for yourselves how devoted to us you are. At every point you have proved yourselves to be innocent in this matter.
11 See what this godly sorrow has produced in you: what earnestness, what eagerness to clear yourselves, what indignation, what alarm, what longing, what concern, ( P) what readiness to see justice done. 10 Godly sorrow brings repentance that leads to salvation ( O) and leaves no regret, but worldly sorrow brings death. For you became sorrowful as God intended and so were not harmed in any way by us. Though I did regret it-I see that my letter hurt you, but only for a little while- 9 yet now I am happy, not because you were made sorry, but because your sorrow led you to repentance. He told us about your longing for me, your deep sorrow, your ardent concern for me, so that my joy was greater than ever.Ĩ Even if I caused you sorrow by my letter, ( N) I do not regret it. ( K) 6 But God, who comforts the downcast, ( L) comforted us by the coming of Titus, ( M) 7 and not only by his coming but also by the comfort you had given him. ( H)ĥ For when we came into Macedonia, ( I) we had no rest, but we were harassed at every turn ( J)-conflicts on the outside, fears within. ( F) I am greatly encouraged ( G) in all our troubles my joy knows no bounds. 4 I have spoken to you with great frankness I take great pride in you. 3 I do not say this to condemn you I have said before that you have such a place in our hearts ( E) that we would live or die with you. ( D) We have wronged no one, we have corrupted no one, we have exploited no one. Paul’s Joy Over the Church’s RepentanceĢ Make room for us in your hearts. 7 Therefore, since we have these promises, ( A) dear friends, ( B) let us purify ourselves from everything that contaminates body and spirit, perfecting holiness ( C) out of reverence for God. 14 But their minds were made dull, for to this day the same veil remains when the old covenant is read. 13 We are not like Moses, who would put a veil over his face to prevent the Israelites from seeing the end of what was passing away. 12 Therefore, since we have such a hope, we are very bold. For this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit.īut we all, with unveiled face beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are transformed into the same image from glory to glory, even as from the Lord the Spirit.Īnd we, who with unveiled faces all reflect the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into His image with intensifying glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.īut we all beholding the glory of the Lord with open face, are transformed into the same image from glory to glory, as by the Spirit of the Lord.īut we all, with unveiled face reflecting as a mirror the glory of the Lord, are transformed into the same image from glory to glory, even as from the Lord the Spirit.īut we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.īut we all, with unveiled face beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are transformed into the same image from glory to glory, even as from the Lord, the Spirit.Īnd we all, with unvailed face, the glory of the Lord beholding in a mirror, to the same image are being transformed, from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.Ģ Corinthians 3:18 Additional Translations. 2 Corinthians 3:12-18New International Version.
