@
Moreover
,
brethren
, we
do
you
to
wit
of the
grace
of
God
bestowed
on
the
churches
of
Macedonia
;
strkjv@2Corinthians:8:2
@ How
that
in
a
great
trial
of
affliction
the
abundance
of
their
joy
and
their
deep
poverty
abounded
unto
the
riches
of
their
liberality
.
strkjv@2Corinthians:8:3
@
For
to
their
power
, I bear
record
, yea,
and
beyond
their
power
they were willing of
themselves
;
strkjv@2Corinthians:8:4
@
Praying
us
with
much
intreaty
that
we
would
receive
the
gift
,
and
take upon us the
fellowship
of the
ministering
to
the
saints
.
strkjv@2Corinthians:8:5
@
And
this they did,
not
as
we
hoped
,
but
first
gave
their own
selves
to the
Lord
,
and
unto
us
by
the
will
of
God
.
strkjv@2Corinthians:8:6
@
Insomuch
that
we
desired
Titus
,
that
as
he had
begun
,
so
he
would
also
finish
in
you
the
same
grace
also
.
strkjv@2Corinthians:8:7
@
Therefore
,
as
ye
abound
in
every
thing, in
faith
,
and
utterance
,
and
knowledge
,
and
in
all
diligence
,
and
in
your
love
to
us
, see
that
ye
abound
in
this
grace
also
.
strkjv@2Corinthians:8:8
@ I
speak
not
by
commandment
,
but
by
occasion
of the
forwardness
of
others
,
and
to
prove
the
sincerity
of
your
love
.
strkjv@2Corinthians:8:9
@
For
ye
know
the
grace
of
our
Lord
Jesus
Christ
,
that
, though he
was
rich
, yet
for
your
sakes
he became
poor
,
that
ye
through
his
poverty
might be
rich
.
strkjv@2Corinthians:8:10
@
And
herein
I
give
my
advice
:
for
this
is
expedient
for
you
,
who
have begun
before
,
not
only
to
do
,
but
also
to be
forward
a
year
ago
.
strkjv@2Corinthians:8:11
@
Now
therefore
perform
the
doing
of it;
that
as
there was a
readiness
to
will
,
so
there may be a
performance
also
out
of
that which ye
have
.
strkjv@2Corinthians:8:12
@
For
if
there
be
first
a willing
mind
, it is
accepted
according
to
that
a
man
hath
, and
not
according to
that
he
hath
not
.
strkjv@2Corinthians:8:13
@
For
I mean
not
that
other
men
be
eased
,
and
ye
burdened
:
strkjv@2Corinthians:8:14
@
But
by
an
equality
, that
now
at
this
time
your
abundance
may be a supply
for
their
want
,
that
their
abundance
also
may
be
a supply
for
your
want
:
that
there may
be
equality
:
strkjv@2Corinthians:8:15
@
As
it is
written
, He that had
gathered
much
had
nothing
over
;
and
he that had
gathered
little
had
no
lack
.
strkjv@2Corinthians:8:16
@
But
thanks
be to
God
,
which
put
the
same
earnest
care
into
the
heart
of
Titus
for
you
.
strkjv@2Corinthians:8:17
@
For
indeed
he
accepted
the
exhortation
;
but
being
more
forward
, of his own
accord
he
went
unto
you
.
strkjv@2Corinthians:8:18
@
And
we have
sent
with
him
the
brother
,
whose
praise
is
in
the
gospel
throughout
all
the
churches
;
strkjv@2Corinthians:8:19
@
And
not
that
only
,
but
who
was
also
chosen
of
the
churches
to
travel
with
us
with
this
grace
,
which
is
administered
by
us
to
the
glory
of the
same
Lord
,
and
declaration of
your
ready
mind
:
strkjv@2Corinthians:8:20
@
Avoiding
this
, that
no
man
should
blame
us
in
this
abundance
which
is
administered
by
us
:
strkjv@2Corinthians:8:21
@
Providing
for honest
things
,
not
only
in the
sight
of the
Lord
,
but
also
in the
sight
of
men
.
strkjv@2Corinthians:8:22
@
And
we have
sent
with
them
our
brother
,
whom
we
have
oftentimes
proved
diligent
in
many
things
,
but
now
much
more
diligent
, upon the
great
confidence
which
I have
in
you
.
strkjv@2Corinthians:8:23
@
Whether
any do enquire
of
Titus
, he is
my
partner
and
fellowhelper
concerning
you
:
or
our
brethren
be enquired of, they are the
messengers
of the
churches
, and the
glory
of
Christ
.
strkjv@2Corinthians:8:24
@
Wherefore
shew
ye
to
them
,
and
before
the
churches
, the
proof
of
your
love
,
and
of
our
boasting
on
your
behalf
.
