2 Corinthians 9:6-9
Christian Standard Bible

6 The point is this:[a] The person who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and the person who sows generously will also reap generously. 7 Each person should do as he has decided in his heart—not reluctantly or out of compulsion, since God loves(A) a cheerful giver. 8 And God is able(B) to make every grace overflow to you, so that in every way, always having everything you need, you may excel in every good work. 9 As it is written:

He distributed freely;(C)
he gave to the poor;
his righteousness endures forever.[b](D)
