Corinthians II 9:5

^A naudiþaurft nu man bidjan broþruns, ei galeiþaina du izwis jah fauragamanwjaina þana fauragahaitanan aiwlaugian izwarana, þana manwjana wisan swaswe wailaqiss jan~ni swaswe bifaihon.

^B naudiþaurft nu man bidjan broþruns, ei galeiþaina du izwis jah fauragamanwjaina þana fauragahaitanan aiwlaugian izwarana, þana manwjana wisan swaswe wailaqiss jah ni swaswe bifaihon.

— ἀναγκαῖον οὖν ἡγησάμην παρακαλέσαι τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς ἵνα προέλθωσιν εἰς ὑμᾶς καὶ προκαταρτίσωσιν τὴν προεπηγγελμένην εὐλογίαν ὑμῶν, ταύτην ἑτοίμην εἶναι οὕτως ὡς εὐλογίαν καὶ μὴ ὡς πλεονεξίαν.

— Therefore I thought it necessary to exhort the brethren, that they would go before unto you, and make up beforehand your bounty, whereof ye had notice before, that the same might be ready, as a matter of bounty, and not as of covetousness.
