2 Corinthians 2:1-3

Murdock(i) 1 And I determined this with myself, that I would not again come to you in sadness. 2 For if I should make you sad, who would make me joyful, unless he whom I had made sad? 3 And I wrote that very thing to you, lest when I came, those persons whom I ought to make joyful, should make me sad. For I have confidence concerning you, that my joy is the joy of you all.
