For I wrote you out of great distress and anguish of heart and with many tears, not to grieve you but to let you know the depth of my love for you.

I was very troubled when I wrote to you. My heart was sad. My eyes were full of tears. I didn’t want to make you sad. I wanted to let you know that I love you very deeply.

我虽然从前写信给你们，却不是为那亏负人的，也不是为那受人亏负的，乃要在神面前把你们顾念我们的热心表明出来。

当面的责备强如背地的爱情。朋友加的伤痕出于忠诚；仇敌连连亲嘴却是多余。

你们当听，当侧耳而听。不要骄傲，因为耶和华已经说了。耶和华你们的神未使黑暗来到，你们的脚未在昏暗山上绊跌之先，当将荣耀归给他；免得你们盼望光明，他使光明变为死荫，成为幽暗。你们若不听这话，我必因你们的骄傲在暗地哭泣；我眼必痛哭流泪，因为耶和华的群众被掳去了。

我也甘心乐意为你们的灵魂费财费力。难道我越发爱你们，就越发少得你们的爱吗？

我先前写信叫你们忧愁，我后来虽然懊悔，如今却不懊悔；因我知道，那信叫你们忧愁不过是暂时的。如今我欢喜，不是因你们忧愁，是因你们从忧愁中生出懊悔来。你们依着神的意思忧愁，凡事就不至于因我们受亏损了。

因为有许多人行事是基督十字架的仇敌。我屡次告诉你们，现在又流泪地告诉你们：

耶稣快到耶路撒冷，看见城，就为它哀哭，说：“巴不得你在这日子知道关系你平安的事；无奈这事现在是隐藏的，叫你的眼看不出来。因为日子将到，你的仇敌必筑起土垒，周围环绕你，四面困住你，并要扫灭你和你里头的儿女，连一块石头也不留在石头上，因你不知道眷顾你的时候。”

我为你们起的愤恨，原是神那样的愤恨。因为我曾把你们许配一个丈夫，要把你们如同贞洁的童女，献给基督。

我是大有忧愁，心里时常伤痛；为我弟兄，我骨肉之亲，就是自己被咒诅，与基督分离，我也愿意。

我的眼泪下流成河，因为他们不守你的律法。

“不可心里恨你的弟兄；总要指摘你的邻舍，免得因他担罪。不可报仇，也不可埋怨你本国的子民，却要爱人如己。我是耶和华。
