2 Corinthians 9:2-5

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.
