Revised Version 1895
2 Corinthians 8:6-16
6Insomuch thatG2443 weG2249 exhortedG3870 TitusG5103, thatG2443 asG2531 heG2532 had madeG4278 a beginningG4278 beforeG1519, soG2443 heG2532 wouldG2532 alsoG2532 completeG2005 inG1519 youG5210 thisG3778 graceG5485 alsoG2532.
7ButG235 asG1722 ye aboundG4052 inG1722 everythingG3956, inG1722 faithG4102, andG2532 utteranceG3056, andG2532 knowledgeG1108, andG2532 inG1722 allG3956 earnestnessG4710, andG2532 inG1722 yourG2532 loveG26 toG2443 usG1537, see thatG2443 ye aboundG4052 inG1722 thisG3778 graceG5485 alsoG2532.
8IG2532 speakG3004 notG3756 byG1223 wayG2596 ofG1223 commandmentG2003, butG235 asG2596 proving throughG1223 theG3588 earnestnessG4710 ofG1223 othersG2087 theG3588 sincerityG1103 alsoG2532 ofG1223 yourG2532 loveG26.
9ForG1063 ye knowG1097 theG3588 graceG5485 ofG1223 ourG2424 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, thatG3754, thoughG3754 heG3754 wasG1510 richG4145, yetG5210 forG1063 yourG2962 sakesG1223 heG3754 becameG4433 poor, thatG3754 ye throughG1223 hisG1223 povertyG4432 mightG5547 becomeG4147 richG4145.
10AndG2532 herein IG2532 giveG1325 myG1722 judgmentG1106: forG1063 thisG3778 is expedient forG1063 youG5210, whoG3588 were theG3588 firstG4278 toG2309 makeG4160 a beginningG4278 a yearG4070 agoG575, notG3756 onlyG3440 toG2309 doG4160, butG235 alsoG2532 toG2309 willG3778.
11ButG1161 nowG1161 completeG2005 theG3588 doingG4160 alsoG2532; thatG3704 asG2509 thereG1161 was theG3588 readinessG4288 toG2309 willG2309, soG2532 thereG1161 mayG2532 beG2532 theG3588 completionG2005 alsoG2532 outG1537 ofG1537 yourG2192 abilityG2192.
12ForG1063 ifG1487 theG3588 readinessG4288 is there, itG1437 is acceptableG2144 accordingG2526 asG2192 a man hath, notG3756 accordingG2526 asG2192 heG1437 hath notG3756.
13ForG1063 IG3568 say notG3756 thisG3588, thatG2443 othersG243 mayG2443 beG3568 eased, andG235 ye distressed:
14butG2532 byG1722 equalityG2471; yourG2532 abundanceG4051 beingG1096 a supply at thisG3588 presentG3568 timeG2540 forG1519 theirG2532 want, thatG2443 theirG2532 abundanceG4051 alsoG2532 mayG2532 becomeG1096 a supply forG1519 yourG2532 want; thatG2443 thereG1722 mayG2532 beG1096 equalityG2471:
15asG2531 itG2532 is writtenG1125, HeG2532 thatG1125 gathered muchG4183 had nothingG3756 over; andG2532 heG2532 thatG1125 gathered littleG3641 had noG3756 lackG1641.
16ButG1161 thanksG5485 beG2316 toG1722 GodG2316, whichG3588 putteth theG3588 sameG846 earnest care forG5228 youG5210 intoG1722 theG3588 heartG2588 ofG2316 TitusG5103.
