2 Corinthians 7:12-14
1599 Geneva Bible
12 Wherefore, though I wrote unto you, I did not it for his cause that had done the wrong, neither for his cause that had the injury, but that our care toward you in the [a]sight of God might appear unto you.
13 Therefore we were comforted, because ye were comforted: but rather we rejoiced much more for the joy of Titus, because his spirit was refreshed by you all.
14 For if that I have boasted anything to him of you, I have not been ashamed: but as I have spoken unto you all things in truth, even so our boasting unto Titus was true.

2 Corinthians 7:12-14
New International Version
12 So even though I wrote to you,(A) it was neither on account of the one who did the wrong(B) nor on account of the injured party, but rather that before God you could see for yourselves how devoted to us you are. 13 By all this we are encouraged.
In addition to our own encouragement, we were especially delighted to see how happy Titus(C) was, because his spirit has been refreshed by all of you. 14 I had boasted to him about you,(D) and you have not embarrassed me. But just as everything we said to you was true, so our boasting about you to Titus(E) has proved to be true as well.
