9:1 For
as
touching
the
ministring
to
the
Saints,
it
is
superfluous
for
mee
to
write
to
you.
9:2 For
I
know
the
forwardnesse
of
your
mind,
for
which
I
boast
of
you
to
them
of
Macedonia,
that
Achaia
was
ready
a
yeere
agoe,
and
your
zeale
hath
prouoked
very
many.
9:3 Yet
haue
I
sent
the
brethren,
least
our
boasting
of
you
should
bee
in
vaine
in
this
behalfe,
that
as
I
saide,
yee
may
be
readie.
9:4 Lest
happily
if
they
of
Macedonia
come
with
mee,
&
find
you
vnprepared,
wee
(that
wee
say
not,
you)
should
bee
ashamed
in
this
same
confident
boasting.
9:5 Therefore
I
thought
it
necessary
to
exhort
the
brethren,
that
they
would
go
before
vnto
you,
and
make
vp
before
hand
your
bountie,
whereof
yee
had
notice
before,
that
the
same
might
bee
readie,
as
a
matter
of
bountie,
not
of
couetousnesse.
9:6 But
this
I
say,
Hee
which
soweth
sparingly,
shall
reape
sparingly:
and
he
which
soweth
bountifully,
shall
reape
bountifully.
9:7 Euerie
man
according
as
he
purposeth
in
his
heart,
so
let
him
giue;
not
grudgingly,
or
of
necessitie:
for
God
loueth
a
cheerefull
giuer.
9:8 And
God
is
able
to
make
all
grace
abound
towards
you,
that
ye
alwayes
hauing
all
sufficiencie
in
all
things,
may
abound
to
euery
good
worke,
9:9 (As
it
is
written:
Hee
hath
dispersed
abroad:
Hee
hath
giuen
to
the
poore:
his
righteousnesse
remaineth
for
euer.
9:10 Now
he
that
ministreth
seede
to
the
sower,
both
minister
bread
for
your
foode,
and
multiply
your
seede
sowen,
and
encrease
the
fruites
of
your
righteousnesse)
9:11 Being
enriched
in
euery
thing
to
al
bountifulnes,
which
causeth
through
vs
thankesgiuing
to
God.
9:12 For
the
administration
of
this
seruice,
not
onely
supplieth
the
want
of
the
Saints,
but
is
abundant
also
by
many
thanksgiuings
vnto
God,
9:13 Whiles
by
the
experiment
of
this
ministration,
they
glorifie
God
for
your
professed
subiection
vnto
the
Gospel
of
Christ,
and
for
your
liberall
distribution
vnto
them,
and
vnto
all
men:
9:14 And
by
their
prayer
for
you,
which
long
after
you
for
the
exceeding
grace
of
God
in
you.
9:15 Thanks
be
vnto
God
for
his
vnspeakeable
gift.
