2 Corinthians 8:4 in Context — 2 Corinthians 8

2 Au milieu de beaucoup de tribulations qui les ont éprouvées, leur joie débordante et leur pauvreté profonde ont produit avec abondance de riches libéralités de leur part.

3 Ils ont, je l’atteste, donné volontairement selon leurs moyens, et même au-delà de leurs moyens,

5 Et non seulement ils ont contribué comme nous l’espérions, mais ils se sont d’abord donnés eux-mêmes au Seigneur, puis à nous, par la volonté de Dieu.

6 Nous avons donc engagé Tite à achever chez vous cette œuvre de bienfaisance, comme il l’avait commencée.
