2 Corinthians 8:10-14

10I 1giveG1325 my opinionG1106 in thisG3778 matter, for thisG3778 is to your advantageG4851, whoG3748 were the firstG4278 to beginG4278 2a yearG4070 agoG4070 not onlyG3440 to doG4160 this, but alsoG2532 to desireG2309 to do it.

11But nowG3570 finishG2005 3doingG4160 it alsoG2532, soG3779 that justG2509 as there was the 4readinessG4288 to desireG2309 it, soG3779 there may be alsoG2532 the completionG2005 of it by your abilityG2192.

12For ifG1487 the readinessG4288 is presentG4295, it is acceptableG2144 5accordingG2526 to what a person hasG2192, not accordingG2526 to what he does not haveG2192.

13For this is not for the easeG425 of othersG243 and for your afflictionG2347, but by wayG1537 of equalityG2471--

14at thisG3588 presentG3568 timeG2540 your abundanceG4051 being a supply for 6their needG5303, soG2443 that their abundanceG4051 alsoG2532 may becomeG1096 a supply for 7your needG5303, that there may be equalityG2471;
