2 Corinthians 8:13-15
New English Translation
13 For I do not say this so there would be relief for others and suffering for you, but as a matter of equality. 14 At the present time, your abundance will meet their need,[a] so that one day their abundance may also meet your need, and thus there may be equality, 15 as it is written: “The one who gathered[b] much did not have too much, and the one who gathered little did not have too little.”[c]
