ForG1063 asG3303 touchingG4012 the ministeringG1248 toG1519 the saintsG40, it isG2076 superfluousG4053 for meG3427 to writeG1125 to youG5213:
ForG1063 I knowG1492 the forwardness ofG4288 yourG5216 mindG4288, for whichG3739 I boastG2744 ofG5228 youG5216 to them of MacedoniaG3110, thatG3754 AchaiaG882 was readyG3903 a yearG4070 agoG575; andG2532 yourG5216 zealG2205+G1537 hath provokedG2042 very manyG4119.
YetG1161 have I sentG3992 the brethrenG80, lestG3363 ourG2257 boastingG2745 ofG5228 youG5216 should be in vainG2758 inG1722 thisG5129 behalfG3313; thatG2443, asG2531 I saidG3004, ye may beG5600 readyG3903:
LestG3381 haplyG4458 ifG1437 they of MacedoniaG3110 comeG2064 withG4862 meG1698, andG2532 findG2147 youG5209 unpreparedG532, weG2249 (thatG3363 we sayG3004 notG3363, yeG5210) should be ashamedG2617 inG1722 this sameG5026 confidentG5287 boastingG2746.
ThereforeG3767 I thoughtG2233 it necessaryG316 to exhortG3870 the brethrenG80, thatG2443 they would go beforeG4281 untoG1519 youG5209, andG2532 make up beforehandG4294 yourG5216 bountyG2129, whereof ye had notice beforeG4293, that the sameG5026 might beG1511 readyG2092+G3779, asG5613 a matter of bountyG2129, andG2532 notG3361 asG5618 of covetousnessG4124. {bounty: Gr. blessing} {whereof…: or, which hath been so much spoken of before}
ButG1161 thisG5124 I say, He which sowethG4687 sparinglyG5340 shall reapG2325 alsoG2532 sparinglyG5340; andG2532 he which sowethG4687 bountifullyG1909+G2129 shall reapG2325 alsoG2532 bountifullyG1909+G2129.
Every manG1538 according asG2531 he purposethG4255 in his heartG2588, so let him give; notG3361 grudginglyG1537+G3077, orG2228 ofG1537 necessityG318: forG1063 GodG2316 lovethG25 a cheerfulG2431 giverG1395.
AndG1161 GodG2316 is ableG1415 to makeG4052 allG3956 graceG5485 aboundG4052 towardG1519 youG5209; thatG2443 ye, alwaysG3842 havingG2192 allG3956 sufficiencyG841 inG1722 allG3956 things, may aboundG4052 toG1519 everyG3956 goodG18 workG2041:
(AsG2531 it is writtenG1125, He hath dispersed abroadG4650; he hath givenG1325 to the poorG3993: hisG846 righteousnessG1343 remainethG3306 forG1519 everG165.
NowG1161 he that ministerethG2023 seedG4690 to the sowerG4687 bothG2532 ministerG5524 breadG740 forG1519 your foodG1035, andG2532 multiplyG4129 yourG5216 seed sownG4703, andG2532 increaseG837 the fruitsG1081 of yourG5216 righteousnessG1343;)
Being enrichedG4148 inG1722 every thingG3956 toG1519 allG3956 bountifulnessG572, whichG3748 causethG2716 throughG1223 usG2257 thanksgivingG2169 to GodG2316. {bountifulness: or, liberality: Gr. simplicity}
ForG3754 the administrationG1248 of thisG5026 serviceG3009 notG3756 onlyG3440 suppliethG2076+G4322 the wantG5303 of the saintsG40, butG235 is abundantG4052 alsoG2532 byG1223 manyG4183 thanksgivingsG2169 unto GodG2316;
Whiles byG1223 the experimentG1382 of thisG5026 ministrationG1248 they glorifyG1392 GodG2316 forG1909 yourG5216 professedG3671 subjectionG5292 untoG1519 the gospelG2098 of ChristG5547, andG2532 for your liberalG572 distributionG2842 untoG1519 themG846, andG2532 untoG1519 allG3956 men;
AndG2532 by theirG846 prayerG1162 forG5228 youG5216, which long afterG1971 youG5209 forG1223 the exceedingG5235 graceG5485 of GodG2316 inG1909 youG5213.
ThanksG5485 be unto GodG2316 forG1909 hisG846 unspeakableG411 giftG1431.
