But (A)if anyone has caused grief, he has not (B)grieved me, but all of you to some extent—not to be too severe.

Therefore I urge you to reaffirm your love to him. For to this end I also wrote, that I might put you to the test, whether you are (E)obedient in all things. 10 Now whom you forgive anything, I also forgive. For [a]if indeed I have forgiven anything, I have forgiven that one for your sakes in the presence of Christ, 11 lest Satan should take advantage of us; for we are not ignorant of his devices.
