And I wrote this same unto you, lest, when I came, I should have sorrow from them of whom I ought to rejoice; having confidence in you all, that my joy is the joy of you all.

And I wrote this very thing, lest, when I came, I should have sorrow from them of whom I ought to rejoice; having confidence in you all, that my joy is the joy of you all.

So I wrote as I did because I was afraid that if I had come, I should have been pained by those who ought to have made me glad; for I felt sure that it was true of you all that my joy was in every case yours also.

Und eben dieses habe ich euch geschrieben, auf daß ich nicht, wenn ich komme, von denen Traurigkeit habe, deren ich mich freuen sollte; indem ich euch allen vertraue, daß meine Freude die euer aller ist.

Y esto mismo os escribí, porque cuando llegare no tenga tristeza sobre tristeza de los que me debiera gozar; confiando en vosotros todos que mi gozo es el de todos vosotros.

E isto mesmo vos escrevi, para que quando vier, não tenha tristeza dos que deveriam me alegrar, confiando de vós todos, que minha alegria é a alegria de todos vós.

Escrevi dessa forma para que, quando vos visitasse, eu não fosse entristecido pelos que deveriam me fazer regozijar. Eu confio que minha alegria é a mesma que a de todos vós.
