Even if I caused you sorrow by my letter, I do not regret it. Although I did regret it, I now see that my letter caused you sorrow, but only for a short time.
Context
6Bali Mungu, yeye awafarijie wenye huzuni, alitufariji kwa kufika kwake Tito. 7Lakini si kule kuja kwa Tito tu, bali pia kwa faraja mliyompa. Alitueleza jinsi mlivyonionea shauku, huzuni yenu kubwa na juhudi yenu kwa ajili yangu, ili kwamba furaha yangu ipate kuwa kubwa kuliko wakati wowote. 8Hata kama niliwahuzunisha kwa barua yangu, sijutii. Ingawa nilijuta kwa muda mfupi, kwa kuwa najua kwamba barua yangu iliwaumiza, lakini ni kwa kitambo tu, 9lakini sasa nina furaha, si kwa sababu mlihuzunika, bali kwa kuwa huzuni hiyo iliwafanya mtubu. Kwa maana mlihuzunishwa kama Mungu alivyokusudia watu wahuzunike na hivyo sisi hatukuwadhuru kwa njia yoyote. 10Kwa maana huzuni ya kimungu huleta toba iletayo wokovu na wala haina majuto. Lakini huzuni ya kidunia husababisha mauti.
