2 Corinthians 7:11

---

← 2 Corinthians 7:10	2 Corinthians 7:11 (KJV)	2 Corinthians 7:12 →
For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.	For behold this selfsame thing, that ye sorrowed after a godly sort, what carefulness it wrought in you, yea, [what] clearing of yourselves, yea, [what] indignation, yea, [what] fear, yea, [what] vehement desire, yea, [what] zeal, yea, [what] revenge! In all [things] ye have approved yourselves to be clear in this matter.	Wherefore, though I wrote unto you, [I did it] not for his cause that had done the wrong, nor for his cause that suffered wrong, but that our care for you in the sight of God might appear unto you.
