2 Corinthians 8:16-24

21st Century King James Version

¹⁶ But thanks be to God who put the same earnest care into the heart of Titus for you.

¹⁷ For indeed he accepted the exhortation, but being even more zealous, of his own accord he went unto you.

¹⁸ And we have sent with him the brother, whose praise is in the Gospel throughout all the churches.

¹⁹ And not that only, but he was also chosen by the churches to travel with us with this grace, which is administered by us to the glory of the same Lord, and to declare your ready mind.

²⁰ For we are avoiding having any man blame us in this abundance which is administered by us,

²¹ providing for honest things, not only in the sight of the Lord but also in the sight of men.

²² And we have sent with them our brother, whom we have oftentimes proved to be diligent in many things, but now much more diligent because of the great confidence which I have in you.

²³ If any should inquire about Titus, he is my partner and fellow helper concerning you. Or if our brethren be inquired about, they are the messengers of the churches and the glory of Christ.

²⁴ Therefore show ye to them, and before the churches, the proof of your love and of our boasting on your behalf.
