2 Corinthians 7:8 in Context — 2 Corinthians 7
6 Mas Deus, que consola aos abatidos, nos consolou com a vinda de Tito.
7 E não somente com a vinda dele, mas também com a consolação com que foi consolado quanto a vós, contando-nos vossas saudades, vosso choro e vosso zelo por mim, de maneira que me alegrei ainda mais.
8 Porque, ainda que eu tenha vos entristecido com a carta, não me arrependo, ainda que tenha me causado pesar; porque vejo que aquela carta vos entristeceu, ainda que por pouco tempo.
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.
