2 Corinthians 8:2-5

2ThatG3754 inG1722 a greatG4183 trialG1382 of afflictionG2347 the abundanceG4050 of theirG846 joyG5479 andG2532 theirG846 deepG899 povertyG2596G4432 aboundedG4052 toG1519 the richesG4149 of theirG846 liberalityG572.1

3ForG3754 toG2596 their powerG1411, I bear witnessG3140, andG2532 even beyondG5228 their powerG1411 they were willing of themselvesG830;

4BeggingG1189 usG2257 withG3326 muchG4183 entreatyG3874 that weG2248 would receiveG1209 the giftG5485, andG2532 take upon us the fellowshipG2842 of the ministeringG1248 toG1519 the saintsG40.

5AndG2532 this they did, notG3756 asG2531 we hopedG1679, butG235 firstG4412 gaveG1325 their own selvesG1438 to the LordG2962, andG2532 to usG2254 byG1223 the willG2307 of GodG2316.
