2 Corinthians 9
For
as
touching
the
ministering
to
the
saints,
it
is
superfluous
for
me
to
write
to
you:
2 For
I
know
the
forwardness
of
your
mind,
for
which
I
a
boast
of
you
to
them
of
Macedonia,
that
Achaia
was
ready
a
year
ago;
and
your
zeal
hath
b
provoked
very
many.
3 Yet
have
I
sent
the
brethren,
lest
our
boasting
of
you
should
be
in
vain
in
this
behalf;
that,
as
I
said,
ye
may
be
ready:
4 Lest
haply
if
they
of
Macedonia
come
with
me,
and
find
you
unprepared,
we
(that
we
say
not,
ye)
should
be
ashamed
in
this
same
confident
boasting.
5 Therefore
I
thought
it
necessary
to
exhort
the
brethren,
that
they
would
go
before
unto
you,
and
make
up
beforehand
your
a
bounty,
whereof
ye
had
notice
before,
that
the
same
might
be
ready,
as
a
matter
of
bounty,
and
not
as
of
covetousness.
6 But
this
I
say,
He
which
soweth
sparingly
shall
a
reap
also
sparingly;
and
he
which
b
soweth
bountifully
shall
reap
also
bountifully.
7 Every
man
according
as
he
a
purposeth
in
his
heart,
so
let
him
give;
not
b
grudgingly,
or
of
necessity:
for
God
loveth
a
c
cheerful
d
giver.
8 And
God
is
able
to
make
all
a
grace
abound
toward
you;
that
ye,
always
having
all
sufficiency
in
all
things,
may
abound
to
every
good
work:
9 (As
it
is
written,
He
hath
dispersed
abroad;
he
hath
given
to
the
poor:
his
righteousness
remaineth
for
ever.
10 Now
he
that
ministereth
seed
to
the
sower
both
minister
bread
for
your
food,
and
multiply
your
seed
sown,
and
increase
the
fruits
of
your
a
righteousness;)
11 Being
enriched
in
every
thing
to
all
bountifulness,
which
causeth
through
us
a
thanksgiving
to
God.
12 For
the
a
administration
of
this
service
not
only
supplieth
the
want
of
the
saints,
but
is
abundant
also
by
many
thanksgivings
unto
God;
13 Whiles
by
the
experiment
of
this
ministration
they
glorify
God
for
your
professed
subjection
unto
the
gospel
of
Christ,
and
for
your
liberal
distribution
unto
them,
and
unto
all
men;
14 And
by
their
prayer
for
you,
which
long
after
you
for
the
exceeding
grace
of
God
in
you.
15
a
Thanks
be
unto
God
for
his
unspeakable
b
gift.
