2 Corinthians 9:4-5

MNT(i) 4 For if any Macedonians come with me and find you not ready, shame would come upon me (not to speak of you) in respect to this confidence. 5 So I have thought that I must ask these brothers to visit you beforehand, and get your promised contribution ready in advance. I want it to be given of your bounty, not extorted from your covetousness.
