2 Corinthians 9:3-5
3But I have sent the brethren, in order that our 1boasting about you may not be made empty in this case, so that, 2as I was saying, you may be prepared; 4otherwise if any 3Macedonians come with me and find you unprepared, we--not to speak of you--will be put to shame by this confidence. 5So I thought it necessary to urge the 4brethren that they would go on ahead to you and arrange beforehand your previously promised 56bountiful gift, so that the same would be ready as a 78bountiful gift and not 910affected by covetousness.
