2 Corinthians 8:5-7

American Standard Version

⁵ and this, not as we had hoped, but first they gave their own selves to the Lord, and to us through the will of God. ⁶ Insomuch that we exhorted Titus, that as he had made a beginning before, so he would also complete in you this grace also. ⁷ But as ye abound in everything, in faith, and utterance, and knowledge, and in all earnestness, and in ^[a]your love to us, see that ye abound in this grace also.
