2 Corinthians 8:10

And herein I give my advice: for this is expedient for you, who have begun before, not only to do, but also to be forward a year ago.

I give a judgment in this: for this is expedient for you, who were the first to start a year ago, not only to do, but also to be willing.

And herein I give `my' judgment: for this is expedient for you, who were the first to make a beginning a year ago, not only to do, but also to will.

and an opinion in this do I give: for this to you `is' expedient, who not only to do, but also to will, did begin before -- a year ago,

And this is my opinion about what is helpful for you in this matter: Last year you were the first not only to give, but even to have such a desire.
