2 Коринтяни 9
Библия, ревизирано издание
Насърчение за събиране на помощи
9 (A)А за даване помощ на светиите – излишно е да ви пиша,
2 (B)понеже зная вашето усърдие, за което се хваля с вас пред македонците, че Ахая се е подготвила още от миналата година; и вашата ревност е подбудила по-голямата част от тях.
3 (C)Но пратих братята, да не би да излезе напразна моята похвала за вас в това отношение, така че да бъдете готови, както казвах;
4 да не би, ако дойдат с мене македонци и ви намерят, че не сте готови, да се посрамим ние, да не кажа вие, в тази наша увереност.
5 И така, намерих за нужно да помоля братята да отидат по-напред при вас и да приготвят предварително вашето по-отрано обещано дарение, за да бъде готово като дарение, а не като изнудване.
6 (D)А това казвам, че който сее оскъдно, оскъдно и ще пожъне; а който сее щедро, щедро и ще пожъне.
7 (E)Всеки да дава, според както е решил в сърцето си, без да се скъпи и не от принуждение; защото Бог обича онзи, който дава на драго сърце.
8 (F)А Бог е силен да преумножи на вас всякакво благо така, че като имате винаги и във всичко това, което е достатъчно във всяко отношение, да изобилвате във всяко добро дело;
9 (G)както е писано:
„Разпръсна щедро, даде на бедните,
правдата му трае до века.“
10 (H)А Този, Който дава семе на сеяча и хляб за храна, ще даде и ще умножи вашето семе за сеене и ще прави да изобилват плодовете на вашата правда,
11 (I)За да бъдете богати във всичко и да проявявате голяма щедрост, която чрез нас ще предизвика благодарност към Бога.
12 (J)Защото извършването на това служение не само запълва нуждите на светиите, но и чрез многото благодарения се излива в изобилие и пред Бога;
13 (K)понеже те славят Бога поради доказателството, което това служение дава за вашата послушност на Христовото благовестие, което изповядвате, и за щедростта на вашето обещание към тях и към всички.
14 (L)А и те, с молитви за вас, копнеят за вас поради дадената на вас изобилна Божия благодат.
15 (M)Да благодарим на Бога за Неговия неизказан дар!

Помощ за събратята християни
9 Излишно е да продължавам да ви пиша за тази помощ за Божиите хора, 2 защото зная вашата готовност да помогнете и продължавам да се хваля с това на македонците. Разказвам им, че вие в Ахая сте готови още от миналата година и вашият ентусиазъм подтикна повечето от тях към действие. 3 Но аз изпращам братята при вас, за да не бъдат хвалбите ни с вас напразни в това отношение и да сте готови да дадете, така както казах, че ще дадете. 4 Иначе, ако някои македонци дойдат с мен и ви намерят неподготвени, ние ще се срамуваме (а да не говоря за срама, който вие ще изпитвате!) заради тази увереност, която имахме във вас. 5 Затова счетох за нужно да помоля братята да тръгнат към вас преди нас и предварително да приготвят дара, който обещахте, за да бъде готов и да е дар, даден от желание, а не изтръгнат насила.
6 Запомнете това: който посади малко, малко и ще пожъне, а който посади много, много и ще пожъне. 7 Всеки трябва да даде толкова, колкото е решил в сърцето си, не със съжаление или по принуда, защото Бог обича онзи, който дава с радост. 8 А Бог може да ви отрупа с всякакви дарове така, че винаги да имате всичко, от което се нуждаете, и дори повече, за да изобилствате във всякакви добри дела. 9 Както казва Писанието:
„Той дава щедро на бедните
и благостта му трае вечно.“(A)
10 А Онзи, който осигурява семе на сеяча и хляб, който ни храни, ще осигури и умножи вашето семе, и ще увеличи плодовете на вашата благост. 11 Вие ще станете богати във всичко, за да можете винаги да проявявате щедрост. И като давате чрез нас, хората ще благодарят на Бога.
12 Защото служението, което извършвате, не само снабдява нуждите на Божиите хора, но и носи все повече и повече благодарности към Бога. 13 Заради това служение, което е доказателство за вярата ви, те ще прославят Бога за покорността ви към Благата вест за Христос, която изповядвате, и за щедростта, с която споделяте с тях и с всички. 14 И когато се молят за вас, ще жадуват да ви видят заради превъзхождащата Божия благодат към вас. 15 Да благодарим на Бога за този неописуем дар!

Christian Giving
9 It is really not necessary for me to write to you about the service to the saints, 2 because I know your eagerness. I am boasting about it on your behalf to the Macedonians, saying that Achaia has been ready since last year. Your zeal has stirred up many of them. 3 But I am sending the brothers so that our boasting on your behalf will not prove to be empty in this case, but that you will be prepared just as I have been saying. 4 Otherwise, if any Macedonians come along with me and find you unprepared, we (to say nothing of you) would be ashamed of this confidence.[a] 5 That is why I considered it necessary to urge the brothers to visit you in advance, and to arrange ahead of time the expression of praise that you previously promised, so that it may be ready as an expression of praise, not of grudging selfishness.
6 This is what I mean: The one who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly. The one who sows generously[b] will also reap generously. 7 Each one should give as he has determined in his heart, not reluctantly or under pressure, for God loves a cheerful giver.
God Provides
8 God is able to make all grace overflow to you, so that in all things, at all times, having all that you need, you will overflow in every good work. 9 As it is written:
He scattered; he gave to the poor.
His righteousness remains forever.[c]
10 And he who provides seed to the sower and bread for food will provide and multiply your seed for sowing, and will increase the harvest of your righteousness. 11 You will be made rich in every way so that you may be generous[d] in every way, which produces thanksgiving to God through us.
12 To be sure, the administration of this service is not only making up for what is lacking among the saints, but it is also overflowing in many prayers of thanksgiving to God. 13 By proving yourselves in this service, many people are glorifying God, as they see the obedience shown in your confession of the gospel of Christ, and the generosity[e] shown in your sharing with them and all people. 14 At the same time as they pray for you, they also express their longing for you, because of the extraordinary measure of God’s grace given to you. 15 Thanks be to God for his indescribable gift!

Your Giving Is a Blessing
9 I really don’t need to write to you about this help for God’s people. 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! 5 So I thought that I should ask these brothers to come there before we do. They will help in getting together the generous gift you promised. Then it will be ready when we come, and it will be seen as a blessing you are giving, not as something you were forced to do.
6 Remember this: The one who plants few seeds will have a small harvest. But the one who plants a lot will have a big harvest. 7 Each one of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give. You should not give if it makes you unhappy or if you feel forced to give. God loves those who are happy to give. 8 And God can give you more blessings than you need, and you will always have plenty of everything. You will have enough to give to every good work. 9 As the Scriptures say,
“He gives generously to the poor;
his goodness will continue forever.” (A)
10 God is the one who gives seed to those who plant, and he gives bread for food. And God will give you spiritual seed and make that seed grow. He will produce a great harvest from your goodness. 11 God will make you rich in every way so that you can always give freely. And your giving through us will make people give thanks to God.
12 The service you are offering helps God’s people with their needs, but that is not all it does. It is also bringing more and more thanks to God. 13 This service is a proof of your faith, and people will praise God because of it. They will praise God that you freely share what you have with them and with all people. They will praise him to see you following the Good News about Christ that you openly accepted. They will praise God because you freely share with them and with all people. 14 And when they pray, they will wish they could be with you. They will feel this way because of the great grace that God gave you. 15 Thanks be to God for his gift that is too wonderful to describe.
2 Corinthians 9
New International Version
9 There is no need(A) for me to write to you about this service(B) to the Lord’s people.(C) 2 For I know your eagerness to help,(D) and I have been boasting(E) about it to the Macedonians, telling them that since last year(F) you in Achaia(G) were ready to give; and your enthusiasm has stirred most of them to action. 3 But I am sending the brothers(H) 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.(I) 4 For if any Macedonians(J) come with me and find you unprepared, we—not to say anything about you—would be ashamed of having been so confident. 5 So I thought it necessary to urge the brothers(K) to visit you in advance and finish the arrangements for the generous gift you had promised. Then it will be ready as a generous gift,(L) not as one grudgingly given.(M)
Generosity Encouraged
6 Remember this: Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously.(N) 7 Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give,(O) not reluctantly or under compulsion,(P) for God loves a cheerful giver.(Q) 8 And God is able(R) to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need,(S) you will abound in every good work. 9 As it is written:
10 Now he who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food(V) will also supply and increase your store of seed and will enlarge the harvest of your righteousness.(W) 11 You will be enriched(X) in every way so that you can be generous(Y) on every occasion, and through us your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God.(Z)
12 This service that you perform is not only supplying the needs(AA) of the Lord’s people but is also overflowing in many expressions of thanks to God.(AB) 13 Because of the service(AC) by which you have proved yourselves, others will praise God(AD) for the obedience that accompanies your confession(AE) of the gospel of Christ,(AF) and for your generosity(AG) in sharing with them and with everyone else. 14 And in their prayers for you their hearts will go out to you, because of the surpassing grace God has given you. 15 Thanks be to God(AH) for his indescribable gift!(AI)
