⁵ For even when we came into ^(A)Macedonia our flesh had no rest, but we were ^(B)afflicted on every side: ^(C)conflicts on the outside, fears inside. ⁶ But ^(D)God, who comforts the ^[a]discouraged, ^(E)comforted us by the arrival of ^(F)Titus; ⁷ and not only by his arrival, but also by the comfort with which he was comforted among you, as he reported to us your longing, your mourning, your zeal for me; so that I rejoiced even more.
