2 Corinthians 8:8-13
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:
