    1I do you to wit brethren of the grace of god which is geven in the congregacions of Macedonia

    2how that the aboundaunce of their reioysing is that they are tried wt moche tribulacio. And therto though they were excedinge poore yet haue they geue excedinge richly and that in singlenesse.

    3For to their powers (I beare recorde) yee and beyonde their power they were willynge of their owne accorde

    4and prayed vs with great instaunce that we wolde receave their benefite and suffre them to be parttakers with other in ministrynge to the saynctes.

    5And this they did not as we loked for: but gave their awne selves fyrst to the LORde and after vnto vs by the will of God:

    6so that we coulde not but desyre Titus to acomplysshe the same benivolence amonge you also even as he had begonne.

    7Now therfore as ye are ryche in all parties in fayth in worde in knowledge in all fervetnes and in love which ye have to vs: even so se that ye be plenteons in this benivolence.

    8Thys saye I not as commaundynge: but be cause other are so fervent therfore prove I youre love whether it be perfait or no.

    9Ye knowe the liberalitie of oure LORde Iesus Christ which though he were riche yet for youre sakes be came poore: that ye thorow his povertie myght be made ryche.

    10And I geve counsell hereto. For this is expedient for you which beganne not to do only: but also to will a yeare a goo.

    11Now therfore performe the dede: that as ther was in you a redines to will even so ye maye performe the dede of that which ye have.

    12For if ther be fyrst a willynge mynde it is accepted accordynge to that a man hath and not accordinge to that he hath not.

    13It is not my mynde that other be set at ease and ye brought into combraunce:

    14but that ther be egalnes now at this tyme that youre aboundaunce sucker their lacke: that their aboundaunce maye supplie youre lacke:

    15that ther maye be equalite agreynge to that which is written. He that gaddered moche had never the more aboundaunce and he yt gaddered lytell had never the lesse.
