2 Corinthians 8
1 to make known then you brother the/this/who grace the/this/who God the/this/who to give in/on/among the/this/who assembly the/this/who Macedonia
We doe you also to wit, brethren, of the grace of God bestowed vpon the Churches of Macedonia,
2 that/since: that in/on/among much test pressure the/this/who excess the/this/who joy it/s/he and the/this/who according to depth poverty it/s/he to exceed toward (the/this/who riches *N(k)O*) the/this/who openness it/s/he
Because in great triall of affliction their ioy abounded, and their most extreme pouertie abounded vnto their rich liberalitie.
3 that/since: since according to power to testify and (from/with/beside *N(k)O*) power self-chosen
For to their power (I beare record) yea, and beyonde their power, they were willing,
4 with/after much encouragement to pray me the/this/who grace and the/this/who participation the/this/who service the/this/who toward the/this/who holy: saint (to receive me *K*)
And praied vs with great instance that we woulde receiue the grace, and fellowship of the ministring which is toward the Saints.
5 and no as/just as to hope/expect but themself to give first the/this/who lord: God and me through/because of will/desire God
And this they did, not as we looked for: but gaue their owne selues, first to the Lord, and after vnto vs by the will of God,
6 toward the/this/who to plead/comfort me Titus in order that/to as/just as to begin beforehand thus(-ly) and to complete toward you and the/this/who grace this/he/she/it
That we should exhort Titus, that as hee had begon, so he would also accomplish the same grace among you also.
7 but just as in/on/among all to exceed faith and word and knowledge and all diligence and the/this/who out from (me *N(K)O*) in/on/among (you *N(K)O*) love in order that/to and in/on/among this/he/she/it the/this/who grace to exceed
Therefore, as yee abound in euery thing, in faith and woorde, and knowledge, and in all diligence, and in your loue towardes vs, euen so see that yee abound in this grace also.
8 no according to command to say but through/because of the/this/who other diligence and the/this/who the/this/who you love genuine to test
This say I not by commandement, but because of the diligence of others: therefore prooue I the naturalnesse of your loue.
9 to know for the/this/who grace the/this/who lord: God me Jesus Christ that/since: that through/because of you be poor rich to be in order that/to you the/this/who that poverty be rich
For ye knowe the grace of our Lord Iesus Christ, that hee being rich, for your sakes became poore, that yee through his pouertie might be made rich.
10 and resolution in/on/among this/he/she/it to give this/he/she/it for you be profitable who/which no alone the/this/who to do/make: do but and the/this/who to will/desire to begin beforehand away from last year
And I shewe my minde herein: for this is expedient for you, which haue begun not to doe onely, but also to will, a yeare agoe.
11 now then and the/this/who to do/make: do to complete that just as the/this/who eagerness the/this/who to will/desire thus(-ly) and the/this/who to complete out from the/this/who to have/be
Nowe therefore performe to doe it also, that as there was a readinesse to will, euen so yee may performe it of that which yee haue.
12 if for the/this/who eagerness to set before insofar as if to have/be (one *k*) acceptable no insofar as no to have/be
For if there be first a willing minde, it is accepted according to that a man hath, and not according to that he hath not.
13 no for in order that/to another rest you (then *k*) pressure
Neither is it that other men should be eased and you grieued: But vpon like condition, at this time your abundance supplieth their lacke:
14 but out from equality in/on/among the/this/who now time/right time the/this/who you overflow toward the/this/who that deficiency in order that/to and the/this/who that overflow to be toward the/this/who you deficiency that to be equality
That also their aboundance may bee for your lacke, that there may be equalitie:
15 as/just as to write the/this/who the/this/who much no to increase and the/this/who the/this/who little/few no to have little
As it is written, Hee that gathered much, had nothing ouer, and hee that gathered litle, had not the lesse.
16 grace then the/this/who God the/this/who (to give *N(k)O*) the/this/who it/s/he diligence above/for you in/on/among the/this/who heart Titus
And thanks be vnto God, which hath put in the heart of Titus the same care for you.
17 that/since: since the/this/who on the other hand encouragement to receive eager then be already self-chosen to go out to/with you
Because hee accepted the exhortation, yea, hee was so carefull that of his owne accorde hee went vnto you.
18 to send with then with/after it/s/he the/this/who brother which the/this/who praise in/on/among the/this/who gospel through/because of all the/this/who assembly
And wee haue sent also with him the brother, whose praise is in the Gospel throughout al the Churches.
19 no alone then but and to appoint by/under: by the/this/who assembly companion me (with *NK(o)*) the/this/who grace this/he/she/it the/this/who to serve by/under: by me to/with the/this/who it/s/he the/this/who lord: God glory and eagerness (me *N(K)O*)
(And not so onely, but is also chosen of the Churches to be a fellowe in our iourney, concerning this grace that is ministred by vs vnto the glorie of the same Lord, and declaration of your prompt minde)
20 to avoid this/he/she/it not one me to criticize in/on/among the/this/who abundance this/he/she/it the/this/who to serve by/under: by me
Auoiding this, that no man shoulde blame vs in this aboundance that is ministred by vs,
21 (to care for *N(k)O*) (for *no*) good no alone before lord: God but and before a human
Prouiding for honest thinges, not onely before the Lord, but also before men.
22 to send with then it/s/he the/this/who brother me which to test in/on/among much often eager to be now then much eager confidence much the/this/who toward you
And we haue sent with them our brother, whom we haue oft times prooued to be diligent in many thinges, but nowe much more diligent, for the great confidence, which I haue in you.
23 whether above/for Titus participant I/we and toward you co-worker whether brother me apostle assembly glory Christ
Whether any doe inquire of Titus, he is my fellowe and helper to you ward: or of our brethren, they are messengers of the Churches, and the glorie of Christ.
24 the/this/who therefore/then demonstration the/this/who love you and me pride above/for you toward it/s/he (to show *N(k)O*) (and *k*) toward face the/this/who assembly
Wherefore shew toward them, and before the Churches the proofe of your loue, and of the reioycing that we haue of you.
