2 Corinthians 9 :: Darby Translation (DBY)

God Gives Most

2Co 9:1For concerning the ministration which is for the saints, it is superfluous my writing to you.

2Co 9:2For I know your readiness, which I boast of as respects you to Macedonians, that Achaia is prepared since a year ago, and the zeal reported of you has stimulated the mass of the brethren.

2Co 9:3

2Co 9:3But I have sent the brethren, in order that our boasting about you may not be made void in this respect, in order that, as I have said, ye may be prepared;

2Co 9:4

2Co 9:4lest haply, if Macedonians come with me and find you unprepared, *we*, that we say not *ye*, may be put to shame in this confidence.

2Co 9:5

2Co 9:5I thought it necessary therefore to beg the brethren that they would come to you, and complete beforehand your fore-announced blessing, that this may be ready thus as blessing, and not as got out of you.

2Co 9:6

2Co 9:6But this is true, he that sows sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he that sows in the spirit of blessing shall reap also in blessing:

2Co 9:7

2Co 9:7each according as he is purposed in his heart; not grievingly, or of necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver.

2Co 9:8

2Co 9:8But God is able to make every gracious gift abound towards you, that, having in every way always all-sufficiency, ye may abound to every good work:

2Co 9:9

2Co 9:9according as it is written, He has scattered abroad, he has given to the poor, his righteousness remains for ever.

2Co 9:10

2Co 9:10Now he that supplies seed to the sower and bread for eating shall supply and make abundant your sowing, and increase the fruits of your righteousness:

2Co 9:11

2Co 9:11enriched in every way unto all free-hearted liberality, which works through us thanksgiving to God.

2Co 9:12

2Co 9:12Because the ministration of this service is not only filling up the measure of what is lacking to the saints, but also abounding by many thanksgivings to God;

2Co 9:13

2Co 9:13they glorifying God through the proof of this ministration, by reason of your subjection, by profession, to the glad tidings of the Christ, and your free-hearted liberality in communicating towards them and towards all;

2Co 9:14

2Co 9:14and in their supplication for you, full of ardent desire for you, on account of the exceeding grace of God which is upon you.

2Co 9:15

2Co 9:15Thanks be to God for his unspeakable free gift.

In 1867, John Nelson Darby translated the New Testament from Greek into English. Further revisions were done in 1872 and 1884. Darby’s work was first published as The Holy Scriptures: A New Translation from the Original Languages by J. N. Darby. After Darby’s death in 1882, some of his students worked together to produce the complete Darby Bible based on the Masoretic Hebrew text, Darby’s German (Elberfelder), and the French (Pau) translations. In 1890, the first complete Darby Bible was published in English. This translation of the Bible is in the public domain.
