2 Corinthians 2:8

Young's Literal Translation 1862

wherefore, I call upon you to confirm love to him,

See the chapter Copy

so that, on the contrary, `it is' rather for you to forgive and to comfort, lest by over abundant sorrow such a one may be swallowed up;

for, for this also did I write, that I might know the proof of you, whether in regard to all things ye are obedient.

For ye -- to freedom ye were called, brethren, only not the freedom for an occasion to the flesh, but through the love serve ye one another,

therefore, then, as we have opportunity, may we work the good to all, and especially unto those of the household of the faith.
