WPNT⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ So I considered it necessary to urge the brothers to go to you in advance and finish preparing the ‘blessing’ you had promised, that it be ready, representing generosity and not stinginess.

JMNT⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ Therefore I considered it compelling to call the brothers (= fellow believers; = Family) alongside and to urge them to the end that they should come unto you folks in advance and that they could thoroughly adjust, prepare and arrange in advance the blessing (= a bountiful gift; or: a eulogy; a word of goodness, ease and well-being) from you folks, which had been previously promised and was being fore-announced, [and for] this to continually be ready, thus: as a blessing (= a bountiful gift; or: a eulogy; word of goodness) and not as one who has advantage in having more (or: not as greed or the desire to have more; possibly: not as the result of a scheme of extortion).

NSB⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ I thought it necessary therefore to request the brothers to go before me to you, and prepare your generous gift before hand, that the same might be ready as a gift and not extortion.

BGB⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ ἀναγκαῖον οὖν ἡγησάμην παρακαλέσαι τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς ἵνα προέλθωσιν εἰς ὑμᾶς καὶ προκαταρτίσωσιν τὴν προεπηγγελμένην εὐλογίαν ὑμῶν, ταύτην ἑτοίμην εἶναι οὕτως ὡς εὐλογίαν καὶ μὴ ὡς πλεονεξίαν.

BIB⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ ἀναγκαῖον (Necessary) οὖν (therefore) ἡγησάμην (I esteemed it) παρακαλέσαι (to exhort) τοὺς (the) ἀδελφοὺς (brothers) ἵνα (that) προέλθωσιν (they should go before) εἰς (unto) ὑμᾶς (you) καὶ (and) προκαταρτίσωσιν (should complete beforehand) τὴν (the) προεπηγγελμένην (foreannounced) εὐλογίαν (blessing) ὑμῶν (of you) ταύτην (this), ἑτοίμην (ready) εἶναι (to be) οὕτως (thus) ὡς (as) εὐλογίαν (a blessing), καὶ (and) μὴ (not) ὡς (as) πλεονεξίαν (covetousness).

DarbyFR⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ J'ai donc estimé nécessaire de prier les frères d'aller au préalable vers vous, et de compléter d'avance votre libéralité, annoncée d'avance, annoncée d'avance, afin quelle soit ainsi prête comme une libéralité et non comme une chose extorquée.

Martin⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ C'est pourquoi j'ai estimé qu'il était nécessaire de prier les frères d'aller premièrement vers vous, et d'achever de préparer votre bénéficence que vous avez déjà promise; afin qu'elle soit prête comme une bénéficence, et non pas comme une chicheté.

Segond⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ J'ai donc jugé nécessaire d'inviter les frères à se rendre auparavant chez vous, et à s'occuper de votre libéralité déjà promise, afin qu'elle soit prête, de manière à être une libéralité, et non un acte d'avarice.
