2 Corinthians 8:2-5

Young's Literal Translation

² because in much trial of tribulation the abundance of their joy, and their deep poverty, did abound to the riches of their liberality;

³ because, according to [their] power, I testify, and above [their] power, they were willing of themselves,

⁴ with much entreaty calling on us to receive the favour and the fellowship of the ministration to the saints,

⁵ and not according as we expected, but themselves they did give first to the Lord, and to us, through the will of God,
