10 Now He who supplies (A)seed to the sower and bread for food will supply and multiply your seed and (B)increase the harvest of your righteousness; 11 you will be (C)enriched in everything for all generosity, which through us is bringing about (D)thanksgiving to God. 12 For the ministry of this service is not only fully supplying (E)the needs of the [a]saints, but is also abounding (F)through many thanksgivings to God. 13 Because of the proven character given by this (G)ministry, they will (H)glorify God for your obedience to your (I)confession of the (J)gospel of Christ and for the [b]generosity of your [c]fellowship toward them and toward all, 14 while they also, by prayer on your behalf, long for you because of the surpassing grace of God on you. 15 [d](K)Thanks be to God for His indescribable (L)gift!
