2 Corinthians 9:7-14 Each man as he purposes in his heart, not from regret or from necessity, for God loves a cheerful giver.

ACV⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁷ Each man as he purposes in his heart, not from regret or from necessity, for God loves a cheerful giver. ⁸ And God is able to abound all grace for you, so that always in everything having all sufficiency, ye may abound for every good work, ⁹ as it is written, He has scattered abroad. He has given to the poor. His righteousness endures into the age. ¹⁰ And he who supplies seed to the man who sows, and bread for eating, may he supply and multiply your seed, and may he increase the fruits of your righteousness, ¹¹ being enriched in everything for every generosity, which works gratitude to God through us. ¹² Because the service of this ministry is not only supplying the needs of the sanctified, but also abounding through many thanksgivings to God ¹³ through the evidence of this service, glorifying God at the subjection of your confession toward the good news of the Christ, and at the generosity of the participation, for them and for all, ¹⁴ and by their supplication about you, yearning for you because of the transcending grace of God in you.
