2 Corinthians 8:14
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
At the present time, your surplus will meet their need, so that in turn their surplus will meet your need. Then there will be equality.
In context
12 For if the eagerness is there, the gift is acceptable according to what one has, not according to what he does not have.
13 It is not our intention that others may be relieved while you are burdened, but that there may be equality.
14 At the present time, your surplus will meet their need, so that in turn their surplus will meet your need. Then there will be equality.
15 As it is written: “He who gathered much had no excess, and he who gathered little had no shortfall.”
16 But thanks be to God, who put into the heart of Titus the same devotion I have for you.
