2 Corinthians 9:5-7

5SoG3767 I consideredG2233 it necessaryG316 to urgeG3870 the 1brothersG80 that they goG4281 on aheadG4281 to you and arrangeG4294 inG4294 advanceG4294 your previouslyG4279 promisedG4279 23generousG2129 giftG2129, that the sameG3778 would be readyG2092 as a 45generousG2129 giftG2129, and not as one grudgingly given due to greedinessG4124.

6NowG1161 I say thisG3778: 6the one who sowsG4687 sparinglyG5340 will alsoG2532 reapG2325 sparinglyG5340, and the one who sowsG4687 7generouslyG2129 will alsoG2532 reapG2325 8generouslyG2129. 7EachG1538 oneG1538 must do justG2531 asG2531 he has decidedG4255 in his heartG2588, not 9reluctantlyG1537G3077 orG2228 underG1537 compulsionG318, for 10GodG2316 lovesG25 a cheerfulG2431 giverG1395.
