2 Corinthians 8:3-5
English Standard Version
3 For they gave (A)according to their means, as I can testify, and beyond their means, of their own accord, 4 begging us earnestly (B)for the favor[a] of taking part in (C)the relief of the saints— 5 and this, not as we expected, but they (D)gave themselves first to the Lord and then by the will of God to us.
