[2Corinthians 7:10 KJV] 10 For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.
Paul is not saying that we are to be sorrowful for our sins and turn from them, to have salvation unto eternal life.
[1Corinthians 5:1-2 KJV] 1 It is reported commonly [that there is] fornication among you, and such fornication as is not so much as named among the Gentiles, that one should have his father's wife. 2 And ye are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he that hath done this deed might be taken away from among you.
The context of 2 Corinthians 7:10 is found in Paul's first epistle. Paul was admonishing the church members for not disciplining the fornicator.
The salvation in this verse is to prompt repentance to be delivered from sinning.
