2 Corinthians 2:10–17
10Now I also forgive whomever you forgive anything. For if indeed I have forgiven anything, I have forgiven that one for your sakes in the presence of Christ,↗
11that no advantage may be gained over us by Satan, for we are not ignorant of his schemes.↗
12Now when I came to Troas for the Good News of Christ, and when a door was opened to me in the Lord,↗
13I had no relief for my spirit, because I didn’t find Titus my brother, but taking my leave of them, I went out into Macedonia.↗
14Now thanks be to God who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and reveals through us the sweet aroma of his knowledge in every place.↗
15For we are a sweet aroma of Christ to God in those who are being saved and in those who perish:↗
16to the one a stench from death to death, to the other a sweet aroma from life to life. Who is sufficient for these things?↗
17For we are not as so many, peddling the word of God. But as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God, we speak in Christ.↗
