2 Corinthians 7:11 in Context — 2 Corinthians 7

9 Agora eu me alegro, não porque vós vos entristecestes, mas porque vos entristecestes para o arrependimento. Porque vós vos entristecestes segundo [a vontade de] Deus; de maneira que em nada sofrestes dano por nós.

10 Pois a tristeza segundo [a vontade de] Deus opera arrependimento para a salvação, de que ninguém se arrepende; mas a tristeza do mundo opera a morte.

11 Porque vede isto mesmo, quanto empenho que vossa tristeza segundo Deus produziu em vós! E também defesa [própria] , indignação, temor, saudades, zelo, e desejo de justiça! Em tudo vos mostrastes estar puros quanto a este assunto.

12 Portanto, ainda que tenha escrito para vós, eu não [fiz isso] por causa daquele que fez o dano, nem por causa daquele que sofreu o dano; mas sim para que nosso empenho por vós diante de Deus vos fosse revelado.

13 Por isso fomos consolados com vosso consolo; e muito mais nos alegramos com a alegria de Tito, de que seu espírito foi revigorado por todos vós.
