2 Corinthians 9:2-5

2ForG1063 I knowG1492 yourG4771 eagernessG4288 to help, and I have been boastingG2744 to the MacedoniansG3110 thatG3754 sinceG575 last yearG4070 youG4771 in AchaiaG882 were preparedG3903 to give. AndG2532 yourG4771 zealG2205 has stirredG2042 most of themG4119 to do likewise.

3ButG1161 I am sendingG3992 theG3588 brothersG80 in order thatG2443 ourG1473 boastingG2745 aboutG5228 youG4771 inG1722 thisG3778 matterG3313 should not prove emptyG3361G2758, but thatG2443 you will beG1510 preparedG3903, just asG2531 I saidG2036. 4OtherwiseG3361G4459, ifG1437 any MacedoniansG3110 comeG2064 withG4862 meG1473 andG2532 findG2147 youG4771 unpreparedG532, weG1473—toG2443 sayG3004 nothingG3361 of youG4771—would be ashamed ofG2617 having been soG3778 confidentG5287. 5SoG3767 I thoughtG2233 it necessaryG316 to urgeG3870 theG3588 brothersG80 toG2443 visit you beforehandG4281G1519G4771 andG2532 make arrangementsG4294 for theG3588 generous giftG2129 you had promisedG4279. This wayG3779, yourG4771 gift will beG1510 preparedG2092 generouslyG5613G2129 andG2532 notG3361 begrudginglyG5613G4124.
