(H)“He has distributed freely, he has given to the poor;
his righteousness endures forever.”
10 He who supplies (I)seed to the sower and bread for food will supply and multiply your seed for sowing and (J)increase the harvest of your righteousness. 11 (K)You will be enriched in every way to be generous in every way, which (L)through us will produce thanksgiving to God.
