2 Corinthians 9:2-4
Easy-to-Read Version
2 I know that you want to help. I have been bragging about you to the people in Macedonia. I told them that you people in Achaia have been ready to give since last year. And your desire to give has made most of the people here ready to give also. 3 But I am sending these brothers to you. I don’t want our bragging about you in this to be for nothing. I want you to be ready just as I said you would be. 4 If any of those from Macedonia come with me, and they find that you are not ready, we will be ashamed. We will be ashamed that we were so sure of you. And you will be ashamed too!

2 Corinthians 9:2-4
New International Version
2 For I know your eagerness to help,(A) and I have been boasting(B) about it to the Macedonians, telling them that since last year(C) you in Achaia(D) were ready to give; and your enthusiasm has stirred most of them to action. 3 But I am sending the brothers(E) in order that our boasting about you in this matter should not prove hollow, but that you may be ready, as I said you would be.(F) 4 For if any Macedonians(G) come with me and find you unprepared, we—not to say anything about you—would be ashamed of having been so confident.
