2 Corinthians 8:15 in Context — 2 Corinthians 8

13 Car il s’agit, non de vous exposer à la détresse pour soulager les autres, mais de suivre une règle d’égalité: dans la circonstance présente votre superflu pourvoira à leurs besoins,

14 afin que leur superflu pourvoie pareillement aux vôtres, en sorte qu’il y ait égalité,

15 selon qu’il est écrit: Celui qui avait ramassé beaucoup n’avait rien de trop, et celui qui avait ramassé peu n’en manquait pas.

16 Grâces soient rendues à Dieu de ce qu’il a mis dans le cœur de Tite le même empressement pour vous;

17 car il a accueilli notre demande, et c’est avec un nouveau zèle et de son plein gré qu’il part pour aller chez vous.
