1 For I decided not to come to you again in painful circumstances.

2 For if I inflict pain upon you, then who is there to cheer me except the one pained by me?

3 And I wrote as I did so that when I came I might not be pained by those in whom I should have rejoiced, confident about all of you that my joy is that of all of you.
