1 BUT I determined this with myself, that I would not come again to you in sadness. 2 For if I make you sad, who can make me happy, but him whom I made sad? 3 And I wrote this same thing to you, so that when I come to you I may not be made sad by those who ought to make me joyful; having confidence in you all, that my joy is the joy of you all. 4 For out of great affliction and anguish of heart, I wrote you with many tears; not to make you feel distressed, but that you may know the abundant love I have for you. 2 Corinthians 2:1-4, Lamsa Bible.
