2 Corinthians 2:2-3

English Standard Version

² For ^(A)if I cause you pain, who is there to make me glad but the one whom I have pained? ³ And I wrote as I did, so that when I came I might not suffer pain from those who should have made me rejoice, ^(B)for I felt sure of all of you, that my joy would be the joy of you all.
