8 For even though I made you feel sorry with the epistle, I do not regret, even though it has caused sorrow: for I can see that though that very epistle has made you feel sorry, the sorrow was only for an hour. 9 But it has made me exceedingly happy, not that you were sorry, but that your sorrow led to repentance: for you were sorry over the things of God, so that you lack nothing from us. 10 For sorrow over the things of God causes enduring repentance of the soul, and brings one to life: but sorrow over the things of the world causes death. 2 Corinthians 7:8-10, Lamsa Bible.
