2 Corinthians 9:1

---

← 2 Corinthians 8:24	2 Corinthians 9:1 (KJV)	2 Corinthians 9:2 →
Wherefore shew ye to them, and before the churches, the proof of your love, and of our boasting on your behalf.	For as touching the ministering to the saints, it is superfluous for me to write to you:	For I know the forwardness of your mind, for which I boast of you to them of Macedonia, that Achaia was ready a year ago; and your zeal hath provoked very many.
