2 Corinthians 9:5-7
5So I considered it necessary to urge the 1brothers that they go on ahead to you and arrange in advance your previously promised 23generous gift, that the same would be ready as a 45generous gift, and not as one grudgingly given due to greediness.
6Now I say this: 6the one who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and the one who sows 7generously will also reap 8generously. 7Each one must do just as he has decided in his heart, not 9reluctantly or under compulsion, for 10God loves a cheerful giver.
