Paul's Joy

(A)Make room in your hearts[a] for us. (B)We have wronged no one, we have corrupted no one, we have taken advantage of no one. I do not say this to condemn you, for I said before that (C)you are in our hearts, to die together and to live together. I am acting with (D)great boldness toward you; (E)I have great pride in you; (F)I am filled with comfort. In all our affliction, I am overflowing with joy.

  1. 2 Corinthians 7:2 Greek lacks in your hearts

Make room for us in your hearts[a]. We have wronged no one, we have ruined no one, we have defrauded no one. I do not say this to condemn you[b], because I have already said that you are in our hearts, so that we die together and we live together. Great is my confidence toward you; great is my boasting on your behalf; I am filled with encouragement; I am overflowing with joy in all our affliction.
