2 Corinthians 9:1-5
WEB · Bible Passage
Bible Text
[1] It is indeed unnecessary for me to write to you concerning the service to the saints, [2] for I know your readiness, of which I boast on your behalf to them of Macedonia, that Achaia has been prepared for a year past. Your zeal has stirred up very many of them. [3] But I have sent the brothers that our boasting on your behalf may not be in vain in this respect, that, just as I said, you may be prepared, [4] so that I won't by any means, if there come with me any of Macedonia and find you unprepared, we (to say nothing of you) should be disappointed in this confident boasting. [5] I thought it necessary therefore to entreat the brothers that they would go before to you, and arrange ahead of time the generous gift that you promised before, that the same might be ready as a matter of generosity, and not of greediness.
