6 But this I say: He who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully.

7 So let each one give as he purposes in his heart, not from sorrow or out of duty; for God loves a cheerful giver.

8 And God is able to make all grace abound toward you, that you, always having all sufficiency in everything, may abound for every good work.

9 As it is written: He has dispersed abroad, He has given to the poor; His righteousness endures forever.

10 Now may He who supplies seed to the sower, and bread for eating, supply and multiply the seed you have sown and increase the fruits of your righteousness,

11 while you are enriched in everything unto all sincerity, which causes thanksgiving through us to God.

12 For the ministry of this service not only supplies what is lacking to the saints, but also is abounding through many thanksgivings to God,
