2 Corinthians 2 — Context

10

But one whom you forgive anything, I forgive also; for indeed what I have forgiven, if I have forgiven anything, I did it for your sakes in the presence of Christ,

11

so that no advantage would be taken of us by Satan, for we are not ignorant of his schemes.

12

Now when I came to Troas for the gospel of Christ and when a door was opened for me in the Lord,

13

I had no rest for my spirit, not finding Titus my brother; but taking my leave of them, I went on to Macedonia.

14

But thanks be to God, who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and manifests through us the sweet aroma of the knowledge of Him in every place.

15

For we are a fragrance of Christ to God among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing;

16

to the one an aroma from death to death, to the other an aroma from life to life. And who is adequate for these things?
