12For ifG1487 the readinessG4288 is presentG4295, it is acceptableG2144 1accordingG2526 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 2their needG5303, soG2443 that their abundanceG4051 alsoG2532 may becomeG1096 a supply for 3your needG5303, that there may be equalityG2471; 15as it is writtenG1125, “4He who gathered muchG4183 did not haveG4121 tooG4121 muchG4121, and he who gathered littleG3641 hadG1641 noG3756 lackG1641.”
