G1161
Moreover
G80
, brethren
G1107
, we do
G5213
you
G1107
to wit
[G5719]
G5485
of the grace
G2316
of God
G1325
bestowed
[G5772]
G1722
on
G1577
the churches
G3109
of Macedonia;
2
G3754
How 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
poverty
G4432
G4052
abounded
[G5656]
G1519
unto
G4149
the riches
G846
of their
G572
liberality.
3
G3754
For
G2596
to
G1411
their power
G3140
, I bear record
[G5719]
G2532
, yea, and
G5228
beyond
G1411
their power
G830
they were willing of themselves;
4
G1189
Praying
[G5740]
G2257
us
G3326
with
G4183
much
G3874
intreaty
G2248
that we
G1209
would receive
[G5664]
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
we hoped
[G5656]
G235
, but
G4412
first
G1325
gave
[G5656]
G1438
their own selves
G2962
to the Lord
G2532
, and
G2254
unto us
G1223
by
G2307
the will
G2316
of God.
6
G1519
Insomuch
G2248
that we
G3870
desired
[G5658]
G5103
Titus
G2443
, that
G2531
as
G4278
he had begun
[G5662]
G3779
, so
G2005
he would
G2532
also
G2005
finish
[G5661]
G1519
in
G5209
you
G5026
the same
G5485
grace
G2532
also.
7
G235
Therefore
G5618
, as
G4052
ye abound
[G5719]
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
love
G1537
G1722
to
G2254
us
G2443
, see that
G4052
ye abound
[G5725]
G1722
in
G5026
this
G5485
grace
G2532
also.
8
G3004
I speak
[G5719]
G3756
not
G2596
by
G2003
commandment
G235
, but
G1223
by occasion
G4710
of the forwardness
G2087
of others
G2532
, and
G1381
to prove
[G5723]
G1103
the sincerity
G5212
of your
G26
love.
9
G1063
For
G1097
ye know
[G5719]
G5485
the grace
G2257
of our
G2962
Lord
G2424
Jesus
G5547
Christ
G3754
, that
G5607
, though he was
[G5752]
G4145
rich
G1223
, yet for
G5209
your
G1223
sakes
G4433
he became poor
[G5656]
G2443
, that
G5210
ye
G1565
through his
G4432
poverty
G4147
might be rich
[G5661]
.
10
G2532
And
G1722
herein
G5129
G1325
I give
[G5719]
G1106
my advice
G1063
: for
G5124
this
G4851
is expedient
[G5719]
G5213
for you
G3748
, who
G4278
have begun before
[G5662]
G3756
, not
G3440
only
G4160
to do
[G5658]
G235
, but
G2532
also
G2309
to be forward
[G5721]
G4070
a year
G575
ago.
11
G3570
Now
G1161
G2532
therefore
G2005
perform
[G5657]
G4160
the doing
[G5658]
G3704
of it; that
G2509
as
G4288
there was a readiness
G2309
to will
[G5721]
G3779
, so
G2005
there may be a performance
[G5658]
G2532
also
G1537
out of
G2192
that which ye have
[G5721]
.
12
G1063
For
G1487
if there
G4295
be first
[G5736]
G4288
a willing mind
G2144
, it is accepted
G2526
according to
G1437
that
G5100
a man
G2192
hath
[G5725]
G3756
, and not
G2526
according to that
G2192
he hath
[G5719]
G3756
not.
13
G1063
For
G3756
I mean not
G2443
that
G243
other men
G425
be eased
G1161
, and
G5213
ye
G2347
burdened:
14
G235
But
G1537
by
G2471
an equality
G3568
, that now
G1722
at
G2540
this time
G5216
your
G4051
abundance
G1519
may be a supply for
G1565
their
G5303
want
G2443
, that
G1565
their
G4051
abundance
G2532
also
G1096
may be
[G5638]
G1519
a supply for
G5216
your
G5303
want
G3704
: that
G1096
there may be
[G5638]
G2471
equality:
15
G2531
As
G1125
it is written
[G5769]
G3588
, He that had gathered
G4183
much
G4121
had
G3756
nothing
G4121
over
[G5656]
G2532
; and
G3588
he that had gathered
G3641
little
G1641
had
G3756
no
G1641
lack
[G5656]
.
16
G1161
But
G5485
thanks
G2316
be to God
G3588
, which
G1325
put
[G5723]
G846
the same
G4710
earnest care
G1722
into
G2588
the heart
G5103
of Titus
G5228
for
G5216
you.
17
G3754
For
G3303
indeed
G1209
he accepted
[G5662]
G3874
the exhortation
G1161
; but
G5225
being
[G5723]
G4707
more forward
G830
, of his own accord
G1831
he went
[G5627]
G4314
unto
G5209
you.
18
G1161
And
G4842
we have sent
[G5656]
G3326
with
G846
him
G80
the brother
G3739
, whose
G1868
praise
G1722
is in
G2098
the gospel
G1223
throughout
G3956
all
G1577
the churches;
19
G1161
And
G3756
not
G3440
that only
G235
, but
G5500
who was
G2532
also
G5500
chosen
[G5685]
G5259
of
G1577
the churches
G4898
to travel
G2257
with us
G4862
with
G5026
this
G5485
grace
G3588
, which
G1247
is administered
[G5746]
G5259
by
G2257
us
G4314
to
G1391
the glory
G846
of the same
G2962
Lord
G2532
, and
G5216
declaration of your
G4288
ready mind:
20
G4724
Avoiding
[G5734]
G5124
this
G3361
, that no
G5100
man
G3469
should blame
[G5667]
G2248
us
G1722
in
G5026
this
G100
abundance
G3588
which
G1247
is administered
[G5746]
G5259
by
G2257
us:
21
G4306
Providing
[G5734]
G2570
for honest things
G3756
, not
G3440
only
G1799
in the sight
G2962
of the Lord
G235
, but
G2532
also
G1799
in the sight
G444
of men.
22
G1161
And
G4842
we have sent
[G5656]
G846
with them
G2257
our
G80
brother
G3739
, whom
G1381
we have
G4178
oftentimes
G1381
proved
[G5656]
G5607
[G5752]
G4705
diligent
G1722
in
G4183
many things
G1161
, but
G3570
now
G4183
much
G4707
more diligent
G4183
, upon the great
G4006
confidence
G3588
which
G1519
I have in
G5209
you.
