ગુજરાતીકરિંથીઓને બીજો પત્ર ૨:૩
અને મેં તમને એ જ લખ્યું, એ સારુ કે જેઓથી મારે આનંદ પામવો, તેઓથી હું આવું ત્યારે મને દુઃખ ન થાય; હું તમારા બધા પર ભરોસો રાખું છું, કે મારો આનંદ તમારા સર્વનો છે.
हिन्दी2 कुरिन्थियों २:३
और मैंने यही बात तुम्हें इसलिए लिखी, कि कहीं ऐसा न हो, कि मेरे आने पर जिनसे मुझे आनन्द मिलना चाहिए, मैं उनसे उदास होऊँ; क्योंकि मुझे तुम सब पर इस बात का भरोसा है, कि जो मेरा आनन्द है, वही तुम सब का भी है।

In context

1But I determined this for myself, that I would not come to you again in sorrow.

2For if I make you grieve, then who will make me glad but he who is made to grieve by me?

3And I wrote this very thing to you, so that when I came, I wouldn’t have sorrow from them of whom I ought to rejoice; having confidence in you all that my joy would be shared by all of you.

4For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote to you with many tears, not that you should be made to grieve, but that you might know the love that I have so abundantly for you.

5But if any has caused sorrow, he has caused sorrow not to me, but in part (that I not press too heavily) to you all.
