2 Corinthians 8:2-4

Authorized (King James) Version

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. ³ For to their power, I bear record, yea, and beyond their power they were willing of themselves; ⁴ praying us with much intreaty that we would receive the gift, and take upon us the fellowship of the ministering to the saints.
