2 Corinthians 7:9

Context
7:9 Now I rejoice, not because you were made sad, 1  but because you were made sad to the point of repentance. For you were made sad as God intended, 2  so that you were not harmed 3  in any way by us.

2 Corinthians 11:9

Context
11:9 When 4  I was with you and was in need, I was not a burden to anyone, for the brothers who came from Macedonia fully supplied my needs. 5  I 6  kept myself from being a burden to you in any way, and will continue to do so.

1 tn Grk “were grieved” (so also twice later in the verse).

2 tn Grk “corresponding to God,” that is, corresponding to God’s will (κατὰ θεόν, kata qeon). The same phrase occurs in vv. 10 and 11.

3 tn Grk “so that you did not suffer loss.”

4 tn Grk “you, and when.” A new sentence was started here in the translation.

5 tn If the participle ἐλθόντες (elqonte") is taken as temporal rather than adjectival, the translation would be, “for the brothers, when they came from Macedonia, fully supplied my needs” (similar to NASB).

6 tn Grk “needs, and I kept.” A new sentence was started here in the translation.
