2 Corinthians 9

1ForG1063 as touchingG4012 the ministeringG3588G1248 toG1519 the saintsG3588G40, it isG1510 superfluousG4053 for meG1473 to writeG3588G1125 to youG4771: 2ForG1063 I knowG1492 the forwardnessG3588G4288 of your mindG4771, for whichG3739 I boastG2744 ofG5228 youG4771 to them of MacedoniaG3110, thatG3754 AchaiaG882 was readyG3903 a year agoG4070; andG2532 yourG4771 zealG3588G2205 hath provokedG2042 very manyG3588G4119. 3YetG1161 have I sentG3992 the brethrenG3588G80, lestG2443 ourG1473 boastingG3588G2745 ofG5228 youG4771 should be in vainG2758 inG1722 thisG3778 behalfG3588G3313; thatG2443, asG2531 I saidG3004, ye mayG3903 beG1510 readyG3903: 4Lest haplyG3381 ifG1437 they of MacedoniaG3110 comeG2064 withG4862 meG1473, andG2532 findG2147 youG4771 unpreparedG532, weG1473 (thatG2443 we sayG3004 notG3361, yeG4771) should be ashamedG2617 inG1722 this sameG3778 confidentG3588G5287 boastingG3588G2746. 5ThereforeG3767 I thought itG2233 necessaryG316 to exhortG3870 the brethrenG3588G80, thatG2443 they would go beforeG4281 untoG1519 youG4771, andG2532 make up beforehandG4294 yourG4771 bountyG2129, whereof ye had notice beforeG4293, that the sameG3778 might beG1510 readyG2092, asG5613 a matter of bountyG2129, andG2532 notG3361 asG5618 of covetousnessG4124.

6ButG1161 thisG3778 I say, HeG3588 which sowethG4687 sparinglyG5340 shall reapG2325 alsoG2532 sparinglyG5340; andG2532 heG3588 which sowethG4687 bountifullyG2129 shall reapG2325 alsoG2532 bountifullyG2129. 7Every manG1538 according asG2531 he purposethG4255 in his heartG3588G2588, so let him give; notG3361 grudginglyG3077, orG2228 ofG1537 necessityG318: forG1063 GodG3588G2316 lovethG25 a cheerfulG2431 giverG1395. 8AndG1161 GodG3588G2316 is ableG1415 to make allG3956 graceG5485 aboundG4052 towardG1519 youG4771; thatG2443 ye, alwaysG3842 havingG2192 allG3956 sufficiencyG841 inG1722 allG3956 things, may aboundG4052 toG1519 everyG3956 goodG18 workG2041: 9(AsG2531 it is writtenG1125, He hath dispersed abroadG4650; he hath givenG1325 to the poorG3588G3993: hisG846 righteousnessG3588G1343 remainethG3306 forG1519 everG3588G165. 10NowG1161 he thatG3588 ministerethG2023 seedG4690 to the sowerG4687 bothG2532 ministerG5524 breadG740 forG1519 your foodG1035, andG2532 multiplyG4129 yourG4771 seed sownG3588G4703, andG2532 increaseG837 the fruitsG3588G1081 of yourG4771 righteousnessG3588G1343;) 11Being enrichedG4148 inG1722 every thingG3956 toG1519 allG3956 bountifulnessG572, whichG3748 causethG2716 throughG1223 usG1473 thanksgivingG2169 to GodG3588G2316. 12

ForG3754 the administrationG3588G1248 of thisG3778 serviceG3588G3009 notG3756 onlyG3440 suppliethG4322 the wantG3588G5303 of the saintsG40, butG235 isG1510 abundantG4052 alsoG2532 byG1223 manyG4183 thanksgivingsG2169 unto GodG3588G2316; 13WhilesG1223 by the experimentG3588G1382 of thisG3778 ministrationG3588G1248 they glorifyG1392 GodG3588G2316 forG1909 yourG4771 professedG3588G3671 subjectionG3588G5292 untoG1519 the gospelG3588G2098 of ChristG3588G5547, andG2532 for your liberalG572 distributionG3588G2842 untoG1519 themG846, andG2532 untoG1519 allG3956 men; 14AndG2532 by theirG846 prayerG1162 forG5228 youG4771, which long afterG1971 youG4771 forG1223 the exceedingG5235 graceG5485 of GodG3588G2316 inG1909 youG4771. 15ThanksG5485 be untoG1909 GodG3588G2316 forG1161 hisG846 unspeakableG411 giftG1431.
