2 Corinthians 9:10-15
New English Translation

10 Now God[a] who provides seed for the sower and bread for food will provide and multiply your supply of seed and will cause the harvest of your righteousness to grow. 11 You will be enriched in every way so that you may be generous on every occasion,[b] which is producing through us thanksgiving to God, 12 because the service of this ministry is not only providing for[c] the needs of the saints but is also overflowing with many thanks to God. 13 Through the evidence[d] of this service[e] they will glorify God because of your obedience to your confession in the gospel of Christ and the generosity of your sharing[f] with them and with everyone. 14 And in their prayers on your behalf, they long for you because of the extraordinary grace God has shown to you.[g] 15 Thanks be to God for his indescribable gift![h]

Lexham English Bible

10 Now the one who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will provide and multiply your seed, and will cause the harvest of your righteousness to grow, 11 being made rich in every way for all generosity, which is producing through us thanksgiving to God, 12 because the service of this ministry is not only supplying the needs of the saints, but also is overflowing through many expressions of thanksgiving to God. 13 Through the proven character of this service they will glorify God because of the submission of your confession to the gospel of Christ and the generosity of your participation toward them and toward everyone, 14 and they are longing for you in their prayers for you, because of the surpassing grace of God to you. 15 Thanks be to God for his indescribable gift!
