7But justG5618 as you 1aboundG4052 2in everythingG3956, in faithG4102 and utteranceG3056 and knowledgeG1108 and in allG3956 earnestnessG4710 and in the 3loveG26 we inspiredG1537 in you, see that you 4aboundG4052 in thisG3778 graciousG5485 workG5485 alsoG2532.
8I 5am not speakingG3004 this as a commandG2003, but as provingG1381 throughG1223 the earnestnessG4710 of othersG2087 the sincerityG1103 of your loveG26 alsoG2532.
9For you knowG1097 6the graceG5485 of our LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, that 7though He was richG4145, yet for your sakeG1223 He becameG4433 poorG4434, soG2443 that you through His povertyG4432 might becomeG4147 richG4147.
