2 Corinthians 8:9-11
1599 Geneva Bible
9 [a]For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that he being rich, for your sakes became poor, that ye through his poverty might be made rich.
10 [b]And I show my mind herein: for this is expedient for you, which have begun not to do only, but also to [c]will, a year ago.
11 Now therefore perform to do it also, that as there was a readiness to will, even so ye may perform it of that which ye have.
