2 Corinthians 9:6-11

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁶ Now this I say: He who soweth sparingly, shall also reap sparingly: and he who soweth in blessings, shall also reap blessings.

⁷ Every one as he hath determined in his heart, not with sadness, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.

⁸ And God is able to make all grace abound in you; that ye always, having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work,

⁹ As it is written: He hath dispersed abroad, he hath given to the poor: his justice remaineth for ever.

¹⁰ And he that ministereth seed to the sower, will both give you bread to eat, and will multiply your seed, and increase the growth of the fruits of your justice:

¹¹ That being enriched in all things, you may abound unto all simplicity, which worketh through us thanksgiving to God.
