wilt thou
2 Corinthians 2:4-6
4
For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote unto you with many tears, not that ye should be grieved, but that ye might know the love which I have more abundantly for you.

2 Corinthians 7:8-10
8
For though I caused you sorrow with a letter, I do not now repent, though I did repent; for I perceive that the same epistle hath caused you sorrow, though it were but for a season.
9
Now I rejoice, not that ye were made sorrowful, but that your sorrow led to repentance. For ye were made sorrowful in a godly manner, that ye might receive injury from us in nothing.
10
For godly sorrow is not to be repented of, but worketh repentance unto salvation; but the sorrow of the world worketh death.
