And your zeal has stirred up most of them. 9 : 3 ButI am sendingthe brothers so that our boasting about you may not prove empty in this matter, so that you may be ready,as I said you would be. 9 : 4 Otherwise, if some Macedonianscome with me and find that you are not ready, we would be humiliated&emdash;to say nothing of you&emdash;for being so confident. 9 : 5 So I thought it necessary to urge the brothers to go on ahead to you and arrange in advance for thegiftyou have promised, so that it may be readyas a willing gift,not as an exaction. 9 : 6 The point is this:whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows bountifullywill also reap bountifully. 9 : 7 Each one must give as he has decided in his heart,not reluctantly or under compulsion, forGod loves a cheerful giver. 9 : 8 AndGod is able to make all grace abound to you, so that having all sufficiencyin all things at all times, you may abound in every good work. 9 : 9 As it is written,He has distributed freely, he has given to the poor;his righteousness endures forever. 9 : 10 He who suppliesseed to the sower and bread for food will supply and multiply your seed for sowing andincrease the harvest of your righteousness. 9 : 11 You will be enriched in every way to be generous in every way, whichthrough us will produce thanksgiving to God. 9 : 12 For the ministry of this service is not only supplyingthe needs of the saints but is also overflowing in many thanksgivings to God. 9 : 13 By their approval of this service,theywill glorify God because of your submission that comes from yourconfession of the gospel of Christ, and the generosity of your contribution for them and for all others, 9 : 14 while they long for you and pray for you, because of the surpassing grace of God upon you. 9 : 15 Thanks be to God for his inexpressible gift!
