4 For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote to you with many tears; not that ye should be grieved, but that ye might know the love which I have more abundantly to you.
5 But if any hath caused grief, he hath not grieved me, but in part: that I may not overcharge you all.
6 Sufficient to such a man [is] this punishment, which [was inflicted] by many.
7 So that on the other hand, ye [ought] rather to forgive [him], and comfort [him], lest perhaps such one should be swallowed up with excessive sorrow.
8 Wherefore I beseech you that ye would confirm [your] love towards him.
