2 Corinthians 9

1 He yieldeth the reason why, though he knew their forwardness, yet he sent Titus and his brethren beforehand. 6 And he proceedeth in stirring them up to a bountiful alms, as being but a kind of sowing seed, 10 which shall return a great increase to them, 13 and occasion a great sacrifice of thanksgivings unto God.

 9:1 ¶ For 1063 as y3303 touching 4012 x3303 the x3588 ministring 1248 to 1519 the x3588 Saints, 40 it is 2076 z5748 superfluous 4053 for mee 3427 to write 1125 z5721 to you. 5213

 9:2 For 1063 I know 1492 z5758 the x3588 forwardnesse of y4288 z0 your y5216 mind, 4288 x5216 for which 3739 I boast 2744 z5736 of 5228 you 5216 to them of Macedonia, 3110 that 3754 Achaia 882 was ready 3903 z5769 a yeere y4070 agoe, 575 x4070 and 2532 x1537 your 5216 zeale 2205 y1537 hath prouoked 2042 z5656 very many. 4119

 9:3 Yet 1161 haue I sent 3992 z5656 the x3588 brethren, 80 least 3363 our 2257 boasting 2745 of 5228 you 5216 should bee in vaine 2758 z5686 in 1722 this 5129 behalfe, 3313 that 2443 as 2531 I saide, 3004 z5707 yee may be 5600 z5753 readie. 3903 z5772

 9:4 Lest y3381 happily y4458 x3381 if 1437 they of Macedonia 3110 come 2064 z5632 with 4862 mee, 1698 & 2532 find 2147 z5627 you 5209 vnprepared, 532 wee 2249 (that y3363 z0 x2443 wee say 3004 z5725 not, y3363 x3361 you) y5210 should bee x5210 ashamed 2617 z5686 in 1722 this same 5026 confident 5287 boasting. 2746

 9:5 Therefore 3767 I thought 2233 z5662 it necessary 316 to exhort 3870 z5658 the x3588 brethren, 80 that 2443 they would go before 4281 z5632 vnto 1519 you, 5209 and 2532 make vp before hand 4294 z5661 your 5216 bountie, 2129 whereof yee had notice before, 4293 z5772 that the same 5026 might bee 1511 z5750 readie, 2092 3779 as 5613 a matter of bountie, 2129 2532 not 3361 5618 of couetousnesse. 4124

 9:6 But 1161 this 5124 [I say], Hee which soweth 4687 z5723 sparingly, 5340 shall reape 2325 2532 z5692 sparingly: 5340 and 2532 he which soweth 4687 z5723 bountifully, 1909 2129 shall reape 2325 2532 z5692 bountifully. 1909 2129

 9:7 Euerie man 1538 according as 2531 he purposeth 4255 z5736 in his heart, 2588 [so let him giue]; not 3361 grudgingly, 1537 3077 or 2228 of 1537 necessitie: 318 for 1063 God 2316 loueth 25 z5719 a cheerefull 2431 giuer. 1395

 9:8 And 1161 God 2316 is able 1415 to make y4052 z0 all y3956 grace y5485 abound 4052 z5658 x3956 x5485 towards 1519 you, 5209 that 2443 ye alwayes 3842 hauing 2192 z5723 all 3956 sufficiencie 841 in 1722 all 3956 things, may abound 4052 z5725 to 1519 euery 3956 good 18 worke, 2041

 9:9 (As 2531 it is written: 1125 z5769 Hee hath dispersed abroad: 4650 z5656 Hee hath giuen 1325 z5656 to the x3588 poore: 3993 his 846 righteousnesse 1343 remaineth 3306 z5719 for y1519 euer. 165 x1519

 9:10 Now 1161 he that ministreth 2023 z5723 seede 4690 to the x3588 sower, 4687 z5723 both 2532 minister 5524 z5659 bread 740 for 1519 your foode, 1035 and 2532 multiply 4129 z5659 your 5216 seede sowen, 4703 and 2532 encrease 837 z5659 the x3588 fruites 1081 of your 5216 righteousnesse) 1343

 9:11 Being enriched 4148 z5746 in 1722 euery thing 3956 to 1519 al 3956 bountifulnes, 572 which 3748 causeth 2716 z5736 through 1223 vs 2257 thankesgiuing 2169 to God. 2316

 9:12 For 3754 the x3588 administration 1248 of this 5026 seruice, 3009 not 3756 onely 3440 supplieth 2076 4322 z5748 z5723 the x3588 want 5303 of the x3588 Saints, 40 but 235 is abundant 4052 z5723 also 2532 by 1223 many 4183 thanksgiuings 2169 vnto God, 2316

 9:13 Whiles by 1223 the x3588 experiment 1382 of this 5026 ministration, 1248 they glorifie 1392 z5723 God 2316 for y1909 your 5216 professed 3671 subiection 5292 vnto 1519 the x3588 Gospel 2098 of Christ, 5547 and 2532 for your liberall 572 distribution 2842 vnto 1519 them, 846 and 2532 vnto 1519 all 3956 men:

 9:14 And 2532 by their 846 prayer 1162 for 5228 you, 5216 which long after 1971 z5723 you 5209 for 1223 the x3588 exceeding 5235 z5723 grace 5485 of God 2316 in 1909 you. 5213

 9:15 1161 Thanks 5485 be vnto God 2316 for 1909 his 846 vnspeakeable 411 gift. 1431
