2nd Corinthians 8:11

8 I am not giving you an order, but using the ready mind of others as a test of the quality of your love.

9 For you see the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, how though he had wealth, he became poor on your account, so that through his need you might have wealth.

10 And in this I give my opinion: for it is to your profit, who were the first to make a start a year before, not only to do this, but to make clear that your minds were more than ready to do it.

11 Then make the doing of it complete; so that as you had a ready mind, you may give effect to it as you are able.

12 For if there is a ready mind, a man will have God's approval in the measure of what he has, and not of what he has not.

13 And I am not saying this so that others may get off free, while the weight comes on you:

14 But so that things may be equal; that from those things of which you have more than enough at the present time their need may be helped, and that if you are in any need they may be a help to you in the same way, making things equal.
