Godly sorrow brings repentance that leads to salvation without regret, but worldly sorrow brings death.
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
For godly sorrow works repentance to salvation, which brings no regret. But the sorrow of the world works death.
World English Bible (WEB)
For{G1063} godly{G2316}{G2596} sorrow{G3077} worketh{G2716}{(G5736)} repentance{G3341} to{G1519} salvation{G4991} not to be repented of{G278}: but{G1161} the sorrow{G3077} of the world{G2889} worketh{G2716}{(G5736)} death{G2288}.
Strong's King James
(10) For the sorrow in accordance with אֱלֹהִים Elohim-God accomplishes a returning into carefree salvation but the sorrow of this world produces death.
The F.O.G*
[10] You see, godly sorrow - the kind that יהוה uses to pierce our hearts - produces a life-transforming repentance that leads to salvation. This divine work leaves no regrets! But worldly sorrow - mere guilt without transformation - leads only to spiritual and emotional death.
The F.O.G Paraphrase
for the sorrow toward God reformation to salvation not to be repented of doth work, and the sorrow of the world doth work death,
Young's Literal Translation
