*
Now this I say ,
he who sows sparingly ,
shall reap sparingly ;
and he who sows bountifully ,
shall reap bountifully .
*
Every one according as he has purposed in his heart ,
ought to give ;
not with regret ,
nor by constraint ;
for God loves a cheerful giver .
*
And God is able to make every blessing abound to you ;
that in everything ,
always having all sufficiency ,
you may abound in every good work .
* «
As it is written ,» '
He has dispersed ,
he has given to the poor :
his righteousness remains forever .'
*
Now ,
may he who supplies seed to the sower ,
and bread for food ,
supply and multiply your seed sown ,
and increase the products of your righteousness .
*
That you may be enriched in everything ,
for all liberality ,
which produces ,
through us ,
thanksgiving to God .
*
For the ministry of this public service ,
not only fill us up completely the wants of the saints ;
but also abounds in many thanksgivings to God .
*
They ,
through the proof of the ministry ,
glorifying God for you avowed subjection to the gospel of Christ ;
and for the liberality of your contribution for them ,
and for all ;
*
and for their prayer for you ,
who ardently love you ,
on account of the exceeding favor of God bestowed on you .
*
Now ,
thanks to God for his unspeakable gift .
