2 Corinthians 2:12 in context

The verses around it, from 2 Corinthians 2.

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

9 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.

12 Now when I went to Troas to preach the gospel of Christ and a door stood open for me in the Lord,

13 I had no peace in my spirit, because I did not find my brother Titus there. So I said goodbye to them and went on to Macedonia.

14 But thanks be to God, who always leads us triumphantly as captives in Christ and through us spreads everywhere the fragrance of the knowledge of Him.

15 For we are to God the sweet aroma of Christ among those who are being saved and those who are perishing.

16 To the one, we are an odor of death and demise; to the other, a fragrance that brings life. And who is qualified for such a task?
