2 Corinthians 9:6-9
Legacy Standard Bible

6 Now this I say, (A)he who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows with blessing will also reap with blessing. 7 Each one must do just as he has purposed in his heart, not (B)grudgingly or under compulsion, for (C)God loves a cheerful giver. 8 And (D)God is able to make every grace abound to you, so that in everything at every time having every sufficiency, you may have an abundance for every good deed; 9 as it is written,

“(E)He scattered abroad, he gave to the needy,
His righteousness [a]stands forever.”

“He scatters abroad; he gives to the poor;
    his righteousness[b] endures forever.”(D)
