7. so that contrariwise ye should rather forgive him and comfort him, lest by any means such a one should be swallowed up with his overmuch sorrow.

8. Wherefore I beseech you to confirm your love toward him.

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

10. But to whom ye forgive anything, I forgive also: for what I also have forgiven, if I have forgiven anything, for your sakes have I forgiven it in the person of Christ;

11. that no advantage may be gained over us by Satan: for we are not ignorant of his devices.

12. Now when I came to Troas for the gospel of Christ, and when a door was opened unto me in the Lord,

13. I had no relief for my spirit, because I found not Titus my brother: but taking my leave of them, I went forth into Macedonia.
