2 Corinthians 8:16-24 - Arrangements For Administering The Corinthians' Gift

¹⁶ Thanks, however, unto God! - who is putting the same earnestness in your behalf in the heart of Titus, ¹⁷ In that, though, indeed, the exhortation, he welcomed; yet already being, greatly in earnest, of his own accord, hath he gone forth unto you. ¹⁸ Howbeit, we also set forward, with him, the brother, whose praise in the Glad Tidings, hath gone through all the assemblies: - ¹⁹ Not only so, however, but he hath also been appointed by the assemblies, as a fellow-traveler with us in this favour, which is being ministered by us with a view to the Lord's glory and our earnest desire: - ²⁰ Arranging this - lest anyone, upon us, should cast blame, in this munificence which is being ministered by us; ²¹ For we provide things honourable, not only before the Lord, but also before men. ²² Moreover we have set forward, with them, our brother whom we have proved, in many things, ofttimes, earnest, - but, now, much more earnest, by reason of the great confidence which he hath towards you. ²³ Whether as regardeth Titus, he is a partner of mine, and, towards you, a fellow-worker. or our brethren, apostles of assemblies, and Christ's glory. ²⁴ The proof of your love, therefore, and of our boasting in your behalf, shew ye, unto them, in the face of the assemblies.
