2 Corinthians 2:5

5If anyone has caused grief, he has not so much grieved me as he has grieved all of you to some extent—not to put it too severely.

5But if anyone has caused sorrow, he has caused sorrow not for me, but in some degree—2:5 Lit so that I not be burdensomenot to say too much—for all of you.

5But if any has caused sorrow, he has caused sorrow not to me, but in some degree—in order not to say too much—to all of you.

5But if 2:5 The incident and offender to which Paul is referring is unclear, but it may have involved some affront or challenge to Paul’s position or authority during his visit to Corinth.someone has caused [all this] sorrow, he has caused it not to me, but in some degree—not to put it too severely—[he has distressed and grieved] all of you.

5Now if anyone has caused grief, he has not grieved me but all of you — to some degree, not to overstate it.

5Suppose someone has made us sad. In some ways, he hasn’t made me sad so much as he has made all of you sad. But I don’t want to put this too strongly.
