2 Corinthians 9

1 Concerning now for the service for the saints excessive for me it is to write to you;

2 I know for the readiness of you which concerning you I boast of to Macedonians, that Achaia has prepared itself from a year ago, and (from *k) your zeal has been provoking the greater number.

3 I have sent however the brothers, that not the boasting of us which [is] about you may be made void in matter this, that even as I was saying having prepared yourselves you may be,

4 lest perhaps maybe shall come with me myself Macedonians and shall find you unprepared, shall be put to shame we ourselves — that not (I may say *N+kO) you yourselves — in confidence this (of boasting. *K)

5 Necessary therefore I esteemed [it] to exhort the brothers that they may go before (into *NK+o) you and may complete beforehand the (having pre-promised *N+KO) blessing of you this ready to be thus as a blessing and not (as *N+kO) covetousness.

6 This now: The [one] sowing sparingly sparingly also will reap, and the [one] sowing upon blessings upon blessings also will reap.

7 each even as (he himself has purposed *N+kO) in the heart, not out of regret or of necessity; a cheerful for giver loves God.

8 (is able *N+kO) now God all grace to make abound to you, so that in every [way] always all sufficiency having you may abound in every work good

9 Even as it has been written: He has scattered abroad, He has given to the poor, the righteousness of Him abides to the age. (aiōn g165)

10 The [One] now supplying (seed *N+kO) to him sowing and bread for food (will supply *N+kO) and (will multiply *N+kO) the seed for sowing of you and (will increase *N+kO) the (fruits *N+kO) of the righteousness of you.

11 in every [way] enriching you to all generosity, which produces through us thanksgiving to God,

12 For the ministry of the service this not only is completely filling up the needs of the saints but also is overflowing through many thanksgivings to God;

13 through the proof of the service this [they] glorifying God at the submission of the of confession of you to the gospel of Christ and to [the] generosity of the participation toward them and toward all,

14 and by their supplication for you a longing for you on account of the surpassing grace of God upon you.

15 Thanks [be] (now *k) to God for the indescribable of Him gift!
