For godly sorrow worketh repentance unto salvation, a repentance which bringeth no regret: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.

For the sorrow which God gives is the cause of salvation through a change of heart, in which there is no reason for grief: but the sorrow of the world is a cause of death.

Διοτι η κατα Θεον λυπη γεννα μετανοιαν προς σωτηριαν αμεταμελητον· η λυπη ομως του κοσμου γεννα θανατον.

For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.
