2 Corinthians 8:6-16

InsomuchG1519 thatG3870 weG1473 desiredG3870 TitusG5103, thatG2443 asG2531 he had begunG4278, soG3779 he would alsoG2532 finishG2005 inG1519 youG4771 the sameG3778 graceG3588G5485 alsoG2532. 7ThereforeG235, asG5618 ye aboundG4052 inG1722 everyG3956 thing, in faithG4102, andG2532 utteranceG3056, andG2532 knowledgeG1108, andG2532 in allG3956 diligenceG4710, andG2532 in yourG4771 loveG26 toG1722 usG1473, see thatG2443 ye aboundG4052 inG1722 thisG3778 graceG3588G5485 alsoG2532. 8I speakG3004 notG3756 byG2596 commandmentG2003, butG235 by occasionG1223 of the forwardnessG4710 of othersG2087, andG2532 to proveG1381 the sincerityG1103 of yourG5212 loveG26. 9

ForG1063 ye knowG1097 the graceG3588G5485 of ourG1473 LordG3588G2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, thatG3754, though he wasG1510 richG4145, yet forG1223 your sakesG4771 he became poorG4433, thatG2443 yeG4771 through hisG1565 povertyG4432 might be richG4147.

10AndG2532 hereinG1722 I giveG1325 my adviceG1106: forG1063 thisG3778 is expedientG4851 for youG4771, whoG3748 have begun beforeG4278, notG3756 onlyG3440 to doG3588G4160, butG235 alsoG2532 to be forwardG3588G2309 a year agoG4070. 11NowG3570 thereforeG2532 performG2005 the doingG4160 of it; thatG3704 asG2509 there was a readinessG3588G4288 to willG2309, soG3779 there may be a performanceG2005 alsoG2532 out ofG1537 that whichG3588 ye haveG2192. 12ForG1063 ifG1487 there be firstG4295 a willing mindG3588G4288, it is acceptedG2144 according to thatG2526 a manG5100 hathG2192, and notG3756 according toG2526 that he hathG2192 notG3756.

13ForG1063 I mean notG3756 thatG2443 other menG243 be easedG425, andG1161 yeG4771 burdenedG2347: 14ButG235 byG1537 an equalityG2471, that nowG3568 atG1722 this timeG3588G2540 yourG4771 abundanceG3588G4051 may be a supply forG1519 theirG1565 wantG3588G5303, thatG2443 theirG1565 abundanceG3588G4051 alsoG2532 may beG1096 a supply forG1519 yourG4771 wantG3588G5303: thatG3704 there may beG1096 equalityG2471: 15AsG2531 it is writtenG1125, He thatG3588 had gathered muchG3588G4183 hadG4121 nothingG3756 overG4121; andG2532 he thatG3588 had gathered littleG3588G3641 hadG1641 noG3756 lackG1641. 16

ButG1161 thanksG5485 be to GodG3588G2316, whichG3588 putG1325 the sameG846 earnest careG4710 intoG1722 the heartG3588G2588 of TitusG5103 forG5228 youG4771.
