2 Corinthians 8:7

---

← 2 Corinthians 8:6	2 Corinthians 8:7 (KJV)	2 Corinthians 8:8 →
Insomuch that we desired Titus, that as he had begun, so he would also finish in you the same grace also.	Therefore, as ye abound in every [thing, in] faith, and utterance, and knowledge, and [in] all diligence, and [in] your love to us, [see] that ye abound in this grace also.	I speak not by commandment, but by occasion of the forwardness of others, and to prove the sincerity of your love.
