2 Corinthians 8:10 in Context — 2 Corinthians 8
8 Je ne dis pas cela pour donner un ordre, mais pour éprouver, par le zèle des autres, la sincérité de votre charité.
9 Car vous connaissez la grâce de notre Seigneur Jésus-Christ, qui pour vous s’est fait pauvre, de riche qu’il était, afin que par sa pauvreté vous fussiez enrichis.
10 C’est un avis que je donne là-dessus, car cela vous convient, à vous qui non seulement avez commencé à agir, mais qui en avez eu la volonté dès l’année dernière.
11 Achevez donc maintenant d’agir, afin que l’accomplissement selon vos moyens réponde à l’empressement que vous avez mis à vouloir.
12 La bonne volonté, quand elle existe, est agréable en raison de ce qu’elle peut avoir à sa disposition, et non de ce qu’elle n’a pas.
