II COR. 8:7 Ther efor e, as ye abound in
ever y thing, in faith, and utter ance,
and know ledge, and in all diligence,
and in your love to us, see that ye
abound in this gr ace also.
8 I speak not by com m andm ent , but
by occasi on of t he for war dness of
ot her s, and to pr ove t he si ncer i t y of
your l ove.
9 For ye know the gr ace of our Lor d
Jesus Chr ist, that, though he was r ich,
yet for your sakes he became poor ,
that ye thr ough his pover ty might be
r ich.
10 And her ei n I give m y advi ce: for
t hi s i s ex pedi ent for you, who have
begun befor e, not only to do, but
al so to be for war d a year ago.
11 Now ther efor e per for m the doing
of it; that as ther e was a r eadiness to
w ill, so ther e may be a per for mance
also out of that w hich ye have.
12 For i f t her e be f i r st a w i l l i ng
m i nd, i t i s accepted accor di ng to
t hat a m an hat h, and not accor di ng
to t hat he hat h not .
13 For I mean not that other men be
eased, and ye bur dened:
14 But by an equal i t y, t hat now at
t hi s t i m e your abundance m ay be a
supply for t hei r want , t hat t hei r
abundance al so m ay be a supply for
your want : t hat t her e m ay be
equal i t y:
15 As it is w r itten, He that had
gather ed much had nothing over ; and
he that had gather ed little had no
lack.
