2 Corinthians 7:10-12

21st Century King James Version

¹⁰ For godly sorrow is not to be repented of, but worketh repentance unto salvation; but the sorrow of the world worketh death.

¹¹ For behold this selfsame thing, when ye sorrowed in a godly manner: what earnest concern it wrought in you, yea, what clearing of yourselves, yea, what indignation, yea, what fear, yea, what vehement desire, yea, what zeal, yea, what requital! In all these things ye have proved yourselves to be clear in this matter.

¹² Therefore, though I wrote unto you, I did not do so for the sake of him who had done the wrong, nor for his sake who suffered wrong, but that our concern for you in the sight of God might appear unto you.
