2 Corinthians 7:6

A Letter That Caused Sadness

⁵ For indeed, when we came into Macedonia, our flesh had no rest, but we were afflicted in every way; without combats, within fears. ⁶ But he who encourages those that are brought low, even God, encouraged us by the coming of Titus; ⁷ and not by his coming only, but also through the encouragement with which he was encouraged as to you; relating to us your ardent desire, your mourning, your zeal for me; so that I the more rejoiced.
