7:8-13a Paul was sorry at first that he had sent his previous letter (see 2:3-4). Now he was not sorry, realizing that the pain had been worthwhile, for the severe letter had brought the church in Corinth to repentance. They had rebuked the offending person—perhaps too strongly (see 2:6-11).
Note 1 topic: writing-pronouns
διὰ τοῦτο
because_of this
Here, the word this refers to what Paul has said in 7:6–12 about how the Corinthians treated Titus and how they responded to Paul’s letter. If it would be helpful in your language, you make the referent of this more explicit. Alternate translation: [Because of those things] or [Because you responded in those ways,]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
διὰ τοῦτο παρακεκλήμεθα
because_of this ˱we˲_/have_been/_comforted
If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you must state who did the action, Paul implies that the Corinthians did it. Alternate translation: [Because of this, you have encouraged us] or [So then, what you did has encouraged us]
Note 3 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases
δὲ
and
Here, the word Now introduces Paul’s development of the ideas from the previous sentence. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces a development, or you could leave Now untranslated. Alternate translation: [Indeed,]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
τῇ παρακλήσει ἡμῶν
the comfort ˱of˲_us
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of encouragement, you could express the idea by using a verb such as “encourage.” Alternate translation: [how we have been encouraged]
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
τῇ χαρᾷ Τίτου
the the joy ˱of˲_Titus
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of joy, you could express the idea by using an adjective such as “joyful.” Alternate translation: [how joyful Titus was]
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
ἀναπέπαυται τὸ πνεῦμα αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ πάντων ὑμῶν
/has_been/_refreshed the spirit ˱of˲_him by all ˱of˲_you_all
Here Paul speaks as if Titus’ spirit were a tired body that needed to be refreshed. He could mean that Titus: (1) was encouraged or given new energy. Alternate translation: [he was encouraged by all of you] or [he was energized by all of us] (2) was no longer worried about the Corinthians. Alternate translation: [he stopped worrying about all of you]
Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
ἀναπέπαυται τὸ πνεῦμα αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ πάντων ὑμῶν
/has_been/_refreshed the spirit ˱of˲_him by all ˱of˲_you_all
If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [all of you had refreshed his spirit]
