2 Corinthians 8:19

And when they had appointed elders for them in every church, having prayed with fasting, they commended them to the Lord in whom they had believed.

And having sent into Macedonia two of those who ministered to him, Timothy and Erastus, he himself stayed in Asia for a while.

And the city was filled with the confusion, and they rushed with one accord into the theater, dragging along Gaius and Aristarchus, Paul’s traveling companions from Macedonia.

And not only this, but we also boast in our afflictions, knowing that affliction brings about perseverance;

And not only this, but we also boast in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation.

And when I arrive, whomever you may approve, I will send them with letters to carry your gracious gift to Jerusalem,

begging us with much urging for the grace of sharing in the ministry to the saints,

But now complete doing it also, so that just as there was the readiness to desire it, so there may be also the completion of it from what you have.
