2 Corinthians 2:5-11
New Matthew Bible
5 But if any man has caused grief, he has not grieved me but in part – lest I should overburden you all. 6 It is enough for the same man that he was rebuked by many. So now, instead, you ought to forgive him, and comfort him, 7 lest that same person should be swallowed up with overmuch heaviness. 8 Therefore I exhort you, so that love may have the power over him.
9 For this reason also I wrote: to know the proof of you, whether you would be obedient in all things.
10 Whomever you forgive for anything, I forgive also. And if I forgive a person anything, I forgive it for your sakes in the place of Christ, 11 lest Satan should get the advantage of us. For his devices are not unknown to us.
