2 Corinthians 8:13-17
13For this is not for the reliefG425 of othersG243 and for your hardshipG2347, but by wayG1537 of equalityG2471-- 14at thisG3588 presentG3568 timeG2540 your abundanceG4051 will serve as assistance for 1their needG5303, soG2443 thatG2443 their abundanceG4051 alsoG2532 may 2serveG1096 asG1096 assistance for 3your needG5303, soG3704 thatG3704 there may be equalityG2471; 15as it is writtenG1125: “4The one who had gathered muchG4183 did not haveG4121 tooG4121 muchG4121, and the one who had gathered littleG3641 did not haveG1641 tooG1641 littleG1641.”
16But 5thanksG5485 be to GodG2316 who 6putsG1325 the sameG846 earnestnessG4710 inG5228 your behalfG5228 in the heartG2588 of 7TitusG5103. 17For he not onlyG3303 acceptedG1209 our 8appealG3874, but beingG5225 himselfG830 very earnestG4705, he has goneG1831 to you of his ownG830 accordG830.
