2 Corintios 7
Biblia del Jubileo
7 ¶ Así que, amados, pues teniendo tales promesas, limpiémonos de toda inmundicia de carne y de espíritu, perfeccionando la santificación en temor de Dios.
2 Admitidnos: a nadie hemos injuriado, a nadie hemos corrompido, a nadie hemos engañado.
3 No para condenaros lo digo; que ya he dicho antes; estáis en nuestros corazones, para morir y para vivir juntamente con nosotros.
4 Mucho atrevimiento tengo para con vosotros, mucho me glorío de vosotros; lleno estoy de consolación, sobreabundo de gozo en todas nuestras tribulaciones.
5 ¶ Porque aun cuando vinimos a Macedonia, ningún reposo tuvo nuestra carne; antes, en todo fuimos atribulados; de fuera, cuestiones; de dentro, temores.
6 Pero Dios, que consuela a los humildes, nos consoló con la venida de Tito;
7 y no sólo con su venida, sino también con la consolación con que él fue consolado acerca de vosotros, haciéndonos saber vuestro deseo (grande), vuestro lloro, vuestro celo por mí, para que así me gozara más.
8 Porque aunque os contristé por la carta, no me arrepiento, aunque me pesó; porque veo que aquella carta, aunque por algún tiempo os contristó.
9 Ahora me gozo, no porque hayáis sido contristados, sino porque fuisteis contristados para enmienda; porque habéis sido contristados según Dios, de tal manera que ninguna pérdida padecisteis por nuestra parte.
10 Porque el dolor que es según Dios, hace enmienda saludable, de la cual no hay que arrepentirse; pero el dolor del mundo obra muerte.
11 Porque he aquí esto mismo, que según Dios fuisteis contristados, ¿cuánta solicitud ha obrado en vosotros? ¡Qué defensa, qué enojo, qué temor, qué (gran) deseo, qué celo, y qué vindicación! En todo os habéis mostrado limpios en el asunto.
12 ¶ Así que, aunque os escribí, no fue solamente por causa del que hizo la injuria, ni por causa del que la padeció, sino también para que os fuera manifiesta nuestra solicitud que tenemos por vosotros delante de Dios.
13 Por tanto, tomamos consolación de vuestra consolación, pero mucho más nos gozamos por el gozo de Tito, que haya sido recreado su espíritu por todos vosotros.
14 Y si algo me he gloriado para con él de vosotros, no he sido avergonzado; sino que así, como todo lo que habíamos dicho de vosotros era con verdad, así también nuestra gloria delante de Tito fue hallada verdadera.
15 Y sus entrañas son más abundantes para con vosotros, cuando se acuerda de la obediencia de todos vosotros, y de cómo lo recibisteis con temor y temblor.
16 Así que me gozo de que en todo estoy confiado de vosotros.

7 Therefore, having these promises, (A)beloved, (B)let us cleanse ourselves from all defilement of flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.
Godly Sorrow Produces Repentance
2 (C)Make room for us in your hearts. We wronged no one, we corrupted no one, we took advantage of no one. 3 I do not speak to condemn you, for I have said (D)before that you are (E)in our hearts to die together and to live together. 4 Great is my (F)boldness toward you; great is my (G)boasting on your behalf. I have been filled with (H)comfort; I am overflowing with (I)joy in all our affliction.
5 For even when we came into (J)Macedonia our flesh had no rest, but we were (K)afflicted on every side—(L)conflicts without, fears within. 6 But (M)God, who comforts the humbled, (N)comforted us by the coming of (O)Titus; 7 and not only by his coming, but also by the comfort with which he was comforted in you, as he reported to us your longing, your mourning, your zeal for me, so that I rejoiced even more. 8 For though I (P)caused you sorrow by my letter, I do not regret it, though I did regret it—for I see that that letter caused you sorrow, though only for a while— 9 I now rejoice, not that you were made sorrowful, but that you were made sorrowful to repentance. For you were made to have [a]godly sorrow, so that you might not suffer loss in anything [b]through us. 10 For [c]godly sorrow produces a (Q)repentance [d]without regret, leading to salvation, but the sorrow of the world brings about death. 11 For behold what earnestness this very thing—this [e]godly sorrow—has brought about in you: what vindication of yourselves, what indignation, what fear, what (R)longing, what zeal, what (S)avenging of wrong! In everything you (T)demonstrated yourselves to be innocent in the matter. 12 So although (U)I wrote to you, it was not for the sake of (V)the offender nor for the sake of the one offended, but that your earnestness on our behalf might be manifested to you in the sight of God. 13 For this reason we have been (W)comforted.
And besides our comfort, we rejoiced even much more for the joy of (X)Titus, because his (Y)spirit has been refreshed by you all. 14 For if in anything I have (Z)boasted to him about you, I was not put to shame, but as we spoke all things to you in truth, so also our boasting before (AA)Titus proved to be the truth. 15 And his [f]affection abounds all the more toward you, as he remembers the (AB)obedience of you all, how you received him with (AC)fear and trembling. 16 I rejoice that in everything (AD)I am encouraged about you.

King James Version
7 Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.
2 Receive us; we have wronged no man, we have corrupted no man, we have defrauded no man.
3 I speak not this to condemn you: for I have said before, that ye are in our hearts to die and live with you.
4 Great is my boldness of speech toward you, great is my glorying of you: I am filled with comfort, I am exceeding joyful in all our tribulation.
5 For, when we were come into Macedonia, our flesh had no rest, but we were troubled on every side; without were fightings, within were fears.
6 Nevertheless God, that comforteth those that are cast down, comforted us by the coming of Titus;
7 And not by his coming only, but by the consolation wherewith he was comforted in you, when he told us your earnest desire, your mourning, your fervent mind toward me; so that I rejoiced the more.
8 For though I made you sorry with a letter, I do not repent, though I did repent: for I perceive that the same epistle hath made you sorry, though it were but for a season.
9 Now I rejoice, not that ye were made sorry, but that ye sorrowed to repentance: for ye were made sorry after a godly manner, that ye might receive damage by us in nothing.
10 For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.
11 For behold this selfsame thing, that ye sorrowed after a godly sort, what carefulness it wrought in you, yea, what clearing of yourselves, yea, what indignation, yea, what fear, yea, what vehement desire, yea, what zeal, yea, what revenge! In all things ye have approved yourselves to be clear in this matter.
12 Wherefore, though I wrote unto you, I did it not for his cause that had done the wrong, nor for his cause that suffered wrong, but that our care for you in the sight of God might appear unto you.
13 Therefore we were comforted in your comfort: yea, and exceedingly the more joyed we for the joy of Titus, because his spirit was refreshed by you all.
14 For if I have boasted any thing to him of you, I am not ashamed; but as we spake all things to you in truth, even so our boasting, which I made before Titus, is found a truth.
15 And his inward affection is more abundant toward you, whilst he remembereth the obedience of you all, how with fear and trembling ye received him.
16 I rejoice therefore that I have confidence in you in all things.
