| 2nd-Corinthians 9:1 | For concerning the ministration which [is] for the saints, it is superfluous my writing to you. | For as concerning the ministering to the saints, it is superfluous for me to write to you: |
| 2nd-Corinthians 9:2 | For I know your readiness, which I boast of as respects you to Macedonians, that Achaia is prepared since a year ago, and the zeal [reported] of you has stimulated the mass [of the brethren]. | For I know the forwardness of your mind, for which I boast of you to them of Macedonia, that Achaia was ready a year ago; and your zeal hath incited very many. |
| 2nd-Corinthians 9:3 | But I have sent the brethren, in order that our boasting about you may not be made void in this respect, in order that, as I have said, ye may be prepared; | Yet have I sent the brethren, lest our boasting of you should be in vain in this behalf; that, as I said, ye may be ready: |
| 2nd-Corinthians 9:4 | lest haply, if Macedonians come with me and find you unprepared, *we*, that we say not *ye*, may be put to shame in this confidence. | Lest haply if they of Macedonia come with me, and find you unprepared, we (that we say not, ye) should be ashamed in this same confident boasting. |
| 2nd-Corinthians 9:5 | I thought it necessary therefore to beg the brethren that they would come to you, and complete beforehand your fore-announced blessing, that this may be ready thus as blessing, and not as got out of you. | Therefore I thought it necessary to exhort the brethren, that they would go before to you, and make up before hand your bounty, of which ye had notice before, that the same might be ready, as a matter of bounty, and not of covetousness. |
| 2nd-Corinthians 9:6 | But this [is true], he that sows sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he that sows in [the spirit of] blessing shall reap also in blessing: | But this I say, He who soweth sparingly, shall reap also sparingly; and he who soweth bountifully, shall reap also bountifully. |
| 2nd-Corinthians 9:7 | each according as he is purposed in his heart; not grievingly, or of necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver. | Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or by constraint: for God loveth a cheerful giver. |
| 2nd-Corinthians 9:8 | But God is able to make every gracious gift abound towards you, that, having in every way always all-sufficiency, ye may abound to every good work: | And God is able to make all grace abound towards you; that ye always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work: |
| 2nd-Corinthians 9:9 | according as it is written, He has scattered abroad, he has given to the poor, his righteousness remains for ever. | (As it is written, He hath dispersed; he hath given to the poor: his righteousness remaineth for ever. |
| 2nd-Corinthians 9:10 | Now he that supplies seed to the sower and bread for eating shall supply and make abundant your sowing, and increase the fruits of your righteousness: | Now may he that ministereth seed to the sower, both minister bread for your food, and multiply your seed sown, and increase the fruits of your righteousness;) |
| 2nd-Corinthians 9:11 | enriched in every way unto all free-hearted liberality, which works through us thanksgiving to God. | Being enriched in every thing to all bountifulness, which causeth through us thanksgiving to God. |
| 2nd-Corinthians 9:12 | Because the ministration of this service is not only filling up the measure of what is lacking to the saints, but also abounding by many thanksgivings to God; | For the administration of this service not only supplieth the want of the saints, but is abundant also by many thanksgivings to God; |
| 2nd-Corinthians 9:13 | they glorifying God through the proof of this ministration, by reason of your subjection, by profession, to the glad tidings of the Christ, and your free-hearted liberality in communicating towards them and towards all; | While by the experiment of this ministration they glorify God for your professed subjection to the gospel of Christ, and for your liberal distribution to them, and to all men; |
| 2nd-Corinthians 9:14 | and in their supplication for you, full of ardent desire for you, on account of the exceeding grace of God [which is] upon you. | And by their prayer for you, who long after you, for the exceeding grace of God in you. |
| 2nd-Corinthians 9:15 | Thanks [be] to God for his unspeakable free gift. | Thanks be to God for his unspeakable gift. |
