2 Corinthians 8:6-9
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
6 so that we urged[a] Titus that just as he previously-began, so also he should complete this grace[b] with reference to you also.
I Urge You To Abound In This Grace of Giving Because It Is Beneficial For You!
7 But just as you are abounding in everything— in faith and speech and knowledge and all earnestness, and in the love from us in you— I urge that you also be abounding in this grace. 8 I am not speaking by way of command, but am proving[c] through the earnestness of others the genuineness of your love also. 9 For you know the grace[d] of our Lord Jesus Christ— that for your sakes He became-poor while being rich, in order that you might become-rich by the poverty of that One.
