2 Corinthians 8:2-9

  2 G3754 That G1722 in G4183 a great G1382 trial G2347 of affliction G4050 the abundance G846 of their G5479 joy G2532 and G846 their G899 deep G2596 G4432 poverty G4052 [G5656] abounded G1519 to G4149 the riches G846 of their G572 liberality.

  3 G3754 For G2596 to G1411 their power G3140 [G5719] , I bear witness G2532 , and G5228 even beyond G1411 their power G830 they were willing of themselves;

  4 G1189 [G5740] Begging G2257 us G3326 with G4183 much G3874 entreaty G2248 that we G1209 [G5664] would receive G5485 the gift G2532 , and G2842 take upon us the fellowship G1248 of the ministering G1519 to G40 the saints.

  5 G2532 And G3756 this they did, not G2531 as G1679 [G5656] we hoped G235 , but G4412 first G1325 [G5656] gave G1438 their own selves G2962 to the Lord G2532 , and G2254 to us G1223 by G2307 the will G2316 of God.

  6 G1519 So G2248 that we G3870 [G5658] urged G5103 Titus G2443 , that G2531 as G4278 [G5662] he had begun G3779 , so G2005 0 he would G2532 also G2005 [G5661] finish G1519 in G5209 you G5026 the same G5485 grace G2532 also.

  7 G235 Therefore G5618 , as G4052 [G5719] ye abound G1722 in G3956 every G4102 thing, in faith G2532 , and G3056 utterance G2532 , and G1108 knowledge G2532 , and G3956 in all G4710 diligence G2532 , and G5216 in your G26 G1537 love G1722 to G2254 us G2443 , see that G4052 [G5725] ye abound G1722 in G5026 this G5485 grace G2532 also.

  8 G3004 [G5719] I speak G3756 not G2596 by G2003 commandment G235 , but G1223 by occasion G4710 of the diligence G2087 of others G2532 , and G1381 [G5723] to prove G1103 the sincerity G5212 of your G26 love.

  9 G1063 For G1097 [G5719] ye know G5485 the grace G2257 of our G2962 Lord G2424 Jesus G5547 Christ G3754 , that G5607 [G5752] , though he was G4145 rich G1223 0 , yet for G5209 your G1223 sakes G4433 [G5656] he became poor G2443 , that G5210 ye G1565 through his G4432 poverty G4147 [G5661] might be rich.
