1 Having, therefore, these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all defilement of flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God. 2 Make room for us; we wronged no one, we corrupted no one, we defrauded no one. 3 I say it not with the view to your condemnation; for I have said before that ye are in our hearts to die together and to live together. 4 Great is my boldness toward you; great is my glorying on your behalf; I am filled with consolation; I overflow with joy in all our tribulation. 5 For even when we came into Macedonia, our flesh had no relief; but we were in tribulation on every side; without were fightings, within were fears. 6 But God, who consoleth the lowly, consoled us by the coming of Titus; 7 and not by his coming only, but also by the consolation with which he was consoled over you; rehearsing to us your earnest desire, your mourning, your zeal for me; so that I rejoiced the more: 2 Corinthians 7:1-7, Worrell New Testament.
