2 Corinthians 2:6

4 For through many tears I wrote you out of great distress and anguish of heart, not to grieve you but to let you know how much I love you.

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

The punishment imposed on him by the majority is sufficient for him.

7 So instead, you ought to forgive and comfort him, so that he will not be overwhelmed by excessive sorrow.

8 Therefore I urge you to reaffirm your love for him.
