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]
