2 Corinthians 2:5-11
Authorized (King James) Version
5 But if any have caused grief, he hath not grieved me, but in part: that I may not overcharge you all. 6 Sufficient to such a man is this punishment, which was inflicted of many. 7 So that contrariwise ye ought rather to forgive him, and comfort him, lest perhaps such a one should be swallowed up with overmuch sorrow. 8 Wherefore I beseech you that ye would confirm your love toward him. 9 For to this end also did I write, that I might know the proof of you, whether ye be obedient in all things. 10 To whom ye forgive any thing, I forgive also: for if I forgave any thing, to whom I forgave it, for your sakes forgave I it in the person of Christ; 11 lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices.

2 Corinthians 2:5-11
21st Century King James Version
5 But if any have caused grief, he hath not grieved me, but in part” that I may not overburden you all.
6 Sufficient to such a man is this censure, which was inflicted by many,
7 so that contrariwise ye ought rather to forgive him and comfort him, lest perhaps such a one should be swallowed up with overmuch sorrow.
8 Therefore I beseech you that you would confirm your love toward him.
9 For to this end also did I write, that I might have proof from you, whether ye be obedient in all things.
10 To whom ye forgive anything, I forgive also; for if I forgave anything, to whom I forgave it, I forgave it for your sakes in the person of Christ,
11 lest Satan should get an advantage over us. For we are not ignorant of his devices.
