The Bible (sometimes The Book or Good Book; from Greek (τα) βιβλια, (ta) biblia, (the) books, plural of βιβλιον, biblion, "book", originally a diminutive of βιβλος, biblos, which in turn is derived from βυβλος—byblos, meaning "papyrus", from the ancient Phoenician city of Byblos which exported this writing material), is the classical name for the Hebrew Bible of Judaism or the combination of the Old Testament and New Testament of Christianity ("The Bible" therefore actually refers to at least two different Bibles). It is thus applied to sacred scriptures. Many Christian English speakers refer to the Christian Bible as "the good book". For many people, their Bible is the revealed word of God or an authoritative record of the relationship between God, the world, and humankind. Both Bibles have been the most widely distributed of books. It has also been translated more times, and into more languages, than any other book. The complete Bible, or portions of it, have been translated into more than 2,100 languages. It is said that more than 5 billion copies of the Bible have been sold since 1815, making it the biggest selling book of all-time.

Chapter 7

1: Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear ofGod.

2: Receive us; we have wronged no man, we have corrupted no man, we have defrauded no man.

3: I speak not this to condemn you: for I have said before, that ye are in our hearts to die and live with you.

4: Great is my boldness of speech toward you, great is my glorying of you: I am filled withcomfort, I am exceeding joyful in all our tribulation.

5: For, when we were come into Macedonia, our flesh had no rest, but we were troubled on every side; without werefightings, within were fears.

6: Nevertheless God, that comforteth those that are cast down, comforted us by the coming of Titus;

7: And not by his coming only, but by the consolation wherewith he was comforted in you, when he told us your earnest desire, your mourning, yourfervent mind toward me; so that I rejoiced the more.

8: For though I made you sorry with a letter, I do not repent, though I did repent: for I perceive that the sameepistle hath made you sorry, though it were but for a season.

9: Now I rejoice, not that ye were made sorry, but that ye sorrowed to repentance: for ye were made sorry after a godly manner, that ye might receive damage by us in nothing.

10: For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.

11: For behold this selfsame thing, that ye sorrowed after a godly sort, what carefulness it wrought in you, yea, what clearing of yourselves, yea, what indignation, yea, what fear, yea, what vehement desire, yea, what zeal, yea, what revenge! In all things ye haveapproved yourselves to be clear in this matter.

12: Wherefore, though I wrote unto you, I did it not for his cause that had done the wrong, nor for his cause that suffered wrong, but that our care for you in the sight of God might appear unto you.

13: Therefore we were comforted in your comfort: yea, and exceedingly the more joyed we for the joy of Titus,because his spirit was refreshed by you all.

14: For if I have boasted any thing to him of you, I am not ashamed; but as we spake all things to you in truth, even so our boasting, which I made before Titus, is found a truth.

15: And his inward affection is more abundant toward you, whilst he remembereth the obedience of you all, how with fear and trembling ye received him.

16: I rejoice therefore that I have confidence in you in all things.
