2 Corinthians 2:6-10 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

6. The punishment inflicted by the majority is sufficient for that person.

7. As a result, you should instead forgive and comfort him. Otherwise, this one may be overwhelmed by excessive grief.

8. Therefore I urge you to reaffirm your love to him.

9. I wrote for this purpose: to test your character to see if you are obedient in everything.

10. If you forgive anyone, I do too. For what I have forgiven — if I have forgiven anything — it is for you in the presence of Christ.
