2 Corinthians 2:11

Read in context

2 Corinthians 2:9–13 · Berean Standard Bible

9 My purpose in writing you was to see if you would stand the test and be obedient in everything.

10 If you forgive anyone, I also forgive him. And if I have forgiven anything, I have forgiven it in the presence of Christ for your sake,

11 in order that Satan should not outwit us. For we are not unaware of his schemes.

12 Now when I went to Troas to preach the gospel of Christ and a door stood open for me in the Lord,

13 I had no peace in my spirit, because I did not find my brother Titus there. So I said goodbye to them and went on to Macedonia.
