2 Corinthians 8:11-19

11But nowG1161 alsoG2532 completeG2005 the doing of it; so that as [there was] the readinessG4288 to be willingG2309, so alsoG2532 to completeG2005 out of what ye have.

12For if the readinessG4288 be there, [a man is] accepted according to what he may have, not according to what he has not.

13For [it is] not in orderG2443 that there may be easeG425 for othersG243, and for you distress,

14but [on the principle] of equality; in the presentG3568 timeG2540 your abundance for their lack, that their abundance may be for your lack, soG2443 that there should be equality.

15According as it is writtenG1125, He who [gathered] muchG4183 had no excess, and he who [gathered] littleG3641 was nothing short.

16But thanksG5485 [be] to 1GodG2316, who givesG1325 the sameG846 diligent zeal for you in the heartG2588 of TitusG5103.

17For he receivedG1209 indeedG3303 the entreaty, but, being full of zeal, he wentG1831 of his own accord to you;

18but we have sent with him the brotherG80 whose praiseG1868 [is] in the glad tidings through all the assemblies;

19and not onlyG3440 [so], but [is] alsoG2532 chosen by the assemblies as our fellow-traveller with this graceG5485, ministeredG1247 by us to the gloryG1391 of the LordG2962 himself, and [a witness of] our readinessG4288;
