Chap. VII. He procedeth to exhorte them to puritie, and to receiue him into their charitie. 3 Which lest they should thinke be speaketh to accuse them, he commendeth them highly, both for their behauiour tovvard Titus, and for their penance vvhich they had done vpon his other epistle.

1   Having therfore these promisses, my deerest, let vs cleanse our selues from al inquinati&obar; of the flesh and spirit, perfiting sanctification in the feare of God.

2   Receiue vs. Vve haue hurt no man, vve haue corrupted no man, vve haue circumuented no man.

3   I speake not to your c&obar;demnation. for I said before that you are in our hartes to die together and to liue together.

4   Much is my confidence vvith you, much is my glorying for you: I am replenished vvith

consolation: I do excedingly abound in ioy in al our tribulation.

5   For also vvhen vve vvere come into Macedonia, our flesh had no rest, but vve suffered al tribulati&obar;: vvithout, combats: vvithin, feares.

6   But God that comforteth the humble, did comforte vs, in the comming of Titus.

7   And not only in his comming, but also in the consolation, vvhervvith he vvas comforted among you, reporting to vs your desire, your vveeping, your emulation for me, so that I reioyced the more.

8   For although I made you sorie in an epistle, it repenteth me not: albeit it repented me, seing that the same epistle (although but for a time) did make you sorie.

9   Novv I am glad: not because you vvere made sorie, but because you vvere made09Q1181 sorie to penance. For you vvere made sorie according to God, that in nothing you should suffer detriment by vs.

10   For note the sorovv that is according to God, vvorketh penance vnto saluation that is stable: but the sorovv of the vvorld vvorketh death.

11   For behold this very thing, that you vvere made sorie according to God, hovv great carefulnes it vvorketh in you: yea defense, yea indignation, yea feare, yea desire, yea emulation, yea reuenge. in al things you haue shevved your selues to be vndefiled in the matter.

12   Therfore although I vvrote to you, not for him that did the iniurie, nor for him that suffered: but to manifest our carefulnes that vve haue for you before God,

13   therfore vve are comforted. But in our consolation, vve did the more aboundantly reioyce vpon the ioy of Titus, because his spirit vvas refreshed of al you.

14   And if to him I gloried any thing of you, I am not c&obar;founded: but as vve spake al things to you in truth,

15   and his bovvels are more aboundantly toward you: remembring the obedience of you al, hovv vvith feare and trembling you receiued him.

16   I reioyce that in al things I haue confidence in you.
