2 Corinthians 2:9

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.

My purpose in writing you was to see if you would stand the test and be obedient in everything.

10 If you forgive anyone, I also forgive him. And if I have forgiven anything, I have forgiven it in the presence of Christ for your sake,

11 in order that Satan should not outwit us. For we are not unaware of his schemes.
