2 Corinthians 2:5-7

New Century Version

Forgive the Sinner

⁵ Someone there among you has caused sadness, not to me, but to all of you. I mean he caused sadness to all in some way. (I do not want to make it sound worse than it really is.) ⁶ The punishment that most of you gave him is enough for him. ⁷ But now you should forgive him and comfort him to keep him from having too much sadness and giving up completely.
