2 Korintus 2:2

2:2 For if I make you sad, who would be left to make me glad ¹  but the one I caused to be sad?

7:10 For sadness as intended by God produces a repentance that leads to salvation, leaving no regret, but worldly sadness brings about death.

[2:2]  ¹ tn Or “to cheer me up.” L&N 25.131 translates this “For if I were to make you sad, who would be left to cheer me up?”
