2 Corinthians 9:2-4

New American Standard Bible

² for I know your willingness, of which I ^(A)boast about you to the ^(B)Macedonians, namely, that ^(C)Achaia has been prepared since ^(D)last year, and your zeal has stirred up most of them. ³ But I have sent the brothers, in order that our ^(E)boasting about you may not prove empty in this case, so that, ^(F)as I was saying, you will be prepared; ⁴ otherwise, if any ^(G)Macedonians come with me and find you unprepared, we—not to mention you—would be put to shame by this confidence.
