2 Corinthians 7:11 in Context — 2 Corinthians 7
9 je me réjouis à cette heure, non pas de ce que vous avez été attristés, mais de ce que votre tristesse vous a portés à la repentance; car vous avez été attristés selon Dieu, afin de ne recevoir de notre part aucun dommage.
10 En effet, la tristesse selon Dieu produit une repentance à salut dont on ne se repent jamais, tandis que la tristesse du monde produit la mort.
11 Et voici, cette même tristesse selon Dieu, quel empressement n’a-t-elle pas produit en vous! Quelle justification, quelle indignation, quelle crainte, quel désir ardent, quel zèle, quelle punition! Vous avez montré à tous égards que vous étiez purs dans cette affaire.
12 Si donc je vous ai écrit, ce n’était ni à cause de celui qui a fait l’injure, ni à cause de celui qui l’a reçue; c’était afin que votre empressement pour nous fût manifesté parmi vous devant Dieu.
13 C’est pourquoi nous avons été consolés. Mais, outre notre consolation, nous avons été réjouis beaucoup plus encore par la joie de Tite, dont l’esprit a été tranquillisé par vous tous.
