< Corinthios Ii 9 >
1 nam de ministerio quod fit in sanctos ex abundanti est mihi scribere vobis
Concerning now for the service for the saints excessive for me it is to write to you;
2 scio enim promptum animum vestrum pro quo de vobis glorior apud Macedonas quoniam Achaia parata est ab anno praeterito et vestra aemulatio provocavit plurimos
I know for the readiness of you which concerning you I boast of to Macedonians, that Achaia has prepared itself from a year ago, and (*N(k)O*) (from *k*) your zeal has been provoking the greater number.
3 misi autem fratres ut ne quod gloriamur de vobis evacuetur in hac parte ut quemadmodum dixi parati sitis
I have sent however the brothers, that not the boasting of us which [is] about you may be made void in matter this, that even as I was saying having prepared yourselves you may be,
4 ne cum venerint mecum Macedones et invenerint vos inparatos erubescamus nos ut non dicamus vos in hac substantia
lest perhaps maybe shall come with me myself Macedonians and shall find you unprepared, shall be put to shame we ourselves — that not (I may say *N(k)O*) you yourselves — in confidence this (of boasting. *K*)
5 necessarium ergo existimavi rogare fratres ut praeveniant ad vos et praeparent repromissam benedictionem hanc paratam esse sic quasi benedictionem non quasi avaritiam
Necessary therefore I esteemed [it] to exhort the brothers that they may go before (into *NK(o)*) you and may complete beforehand the (having pre-promised *N(K)O*) blessing of you this ready to be thus as a blessing and not (as *N(k)O*) covetousness.
6 hoc autem qui parce seminat parce et metet et qui seminat in benedictionibus de benedictionibus et metet
This now: The [one] sowing sparingly sparingly also will reap, and the [one] sowing upon blessings upon blessings also will reap.
7 unusquisque prout destinavit corde suo non ex tristitia aut ex necessitate hilarem enim datorem diligit Deus
each even as (he himself has purposed *N(k)O*) in the heart, not out of regret or of necessity; a cheerful for giver loves God.
8 potens est autem Deus omnem gratiam abundare facere in vobis ut in omnibus semper omnem sufficientiam habentes abundetis in omne opus bonum
(is able *N(k)O*) now God all grace to make abound to you, so that in every [way] always all sufficiency having you may abound in every work good
9 sicut scriptum est dispersit dedit pauperibus iustitia eius manet in aeternum (aiōn )
Even as it has been written: He has scattered abroad, He has given to the poor, the righteousness of Him abides to the age. (aiōn )
10 qui autem administrat semen seminanti et panem ad manducandum praestabit et multiplicabit semen vestrum et augebit incrementa frugum iustitiae vestrae
The [One] now supplying (seed *N(k)O*) to him sowing and bread for food (will supply *N(k)O*) and (will multiply *N(k)O*) the seed for sowing of you and (will increase *N(k)O*) the (fruits *N(k)O*) of the righteousness of you.
11 ut in omnibus locupletati abundetis in omnem simplicitatem quae operatur per nos gratiarum actionem Deo
in every [way] enriching you to all generosity, which produces through us thanksgiving to God,
12 quoniam ministerium huius officii non solum supplet ea quae desunt sanctis sed etiam abundat per multas gratiarum actiones in Domino
For the ministry of the service this not only is completely filling up the needs of the saints but also is overflowing through many thanksgivings to God;
13 per probationem ministerii huius glorificantes Deum in oboedientia confessionis vestrae in evangelium Christi et simplicitate communicationis in illos et in omnes
through the proof of the service this [they] glorifying God at the submission of the of confession of you to the gospel of Christ and to [the] generosity of the participation toward them and toward all,
14 et ipsorum obsecratione pro vobis desiderantium vos propter eminentem gratiam Dei in vobis
and by their supplication for you a longing for you on account of the surpassing grace of God upon you.
15 gratias Deo super inenarrabili dono eius
