2 Corinthians 9:6–15

⁶Now this I say, ^ahe who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows with blessing will also reap with blessing.

⁷Each one must do just as he has purposed in his heart, not ^agrudgingly or under compulsion, for ^bGod loves a cheerful giver.

⁸And ^aGod is able to make every grace abound to you, so that in everything at every time having every sufficiency, you may have an abundance for every good deed;

⁹as it is written,

“^aHe scattered abroad, he gave to the needy,

His righteousness ¹stands forever.”

¹⁰Now He who supplies ^aseed to the sower and bread for food will supply and multiply your seed and ^bincrease the harvest of your righteousness;

¹¹you will be ^aenriched in everything for all generosity, which through us is bringing about ^bthanksgiving to God.

¹²For the ministry of this service is not only fully supplying ^athe needs of the ¹saints, but is also abounding ^bthrough many thanksgivings to God.

¹³Because of the proven character given by this ^aministry, they will ^bglorify God for your obedience to your ^cconfession of the ^dgospel of Christ and for the ¹generosity of your ²fellowship toward them and toward all,

¹⁴while they also, by prayer on your behalf, long for you because of the surpassing grace of God on you.

^151aThanks be to God for His indescribable ^bgift!
