^{6 (2:5)} And [consider] this, He that sows sparingly shall reap also sparingly, and he that sows liberally shall reap also liberally. ⁷ Let each one contribute as he chooses in his heart, not with regret or from necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver. ⁸ And God is able to make every favor abound to you, that having always every sufficiency in every thing you may abound in every good work; ⁹ as it is written, He scattered abroad, he gave to the poor, his righteousness continues forever. ¹⁰ And may he that supplies seed to the sower and bread for eating multiply your grain, and increase the products of your righteousness; ¹¹ that you may be enriched in every thing for all liberality, which produces through us thanksgiving to God. ¹² For the performance of this service not only supplies the need of the saints, but also abounds with the thanksgivings of many to God; ¹³ [they] glorifying God on account of the proof of this ministry for your professed subjection to the gospel of Christ and the liberality of the contribution to them and to all, ¹⁴ and by their prayer for you, greatly longing for you on account of the abounding grace of God upon you. ¹⁵ Thanks be to God for his unspeakable gift.
