KJV ORIGINAL
Wherefore, though I wrote unto you, I did it not for his cause that had done the wrong, nor for his cause that suffered wrong, but that our care for you in the sight of God might appear unto you.
Close to the original. Clear modern English.
✦ MADE SIMPLE
So even though I wrote that tough letter to you, it wasn't really about the person who messed up or the person who got hurt. I wrote it because I wanted you to see how much we actually care about you — and I wanted God to see it too.
⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE
Sometimes the hard conversations aren't about the drama — they're about showing how much you care.
