2 Corinthians 8:12
For if there be first a willing mind, it is accepted according to that a man hath, and not according to that he hath not.

καὶ ἐλθοῦσα μία χήρα πτωχὴ ἔβαλεν λεπτὰ δύο ὅ ἐστιν κοδράντης
And there came a certain poor widow, and she threw in two mites, which make a farthing.
ἕκαστος καθὼς προαιρεῖται τῇ καρδίᾳ μὴ ἐκ λύπης ἢ ἐξ ἀνάγκης· ἱλαρὸν γὰρ δότην ἀγαπᾷ ὁ θεός
Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.
Ἀναβλέψας δὲ εἶδεν τοὺς βάλλοντας τὰ δῶρα αὐτῶν εἰς τὸ γαζοφυλάκιον πλουσίους
And he looked up, and saw the rich men casting their gifts into the treasury.
כָּל-אִישׁ וְאִשָּׁה אֲשֶׁר נָדַב לִבָּם אֹתָם לְהָבִיא לְכָל-הַמְּלָאכָה אֲשֶׁר צִוָּה יְהוָה לַֽעֲשׂוֹת בְּיַד-מֹשֶׁה הֵבִיאוּ בְנֵֽי-יִשְׂרָאֵל נְדָבָה לַֽיהוָֽה׃
The children of Israel brought a willing offering unto the LORD, every man and woman, whose heart made them willing to bring for all manner of work, which the LORD had commanded to be made by the hand of Moses.
דַּבֵּר אֶל-בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וְיִקְחוּ-לִי תְּרוּמָה מֵאֵת כָּל-אִישׁ אֲשֶׁר יִדְּבֶנּוּ לִבּוֹ תִּקְחוּ אֶת-תְּרֽוּמָתִֽי׃
Speak unto the children of Israel, that they bring me an offering: of every man that giveth it willingly with his heart ye shall take my offering.
וַיָּבֹאוּ כָּל-אִישׁ אֲשֶׁר-נְשָׂאוֹ לִבּוֹ וְכֹל אֲשֶׁר נָֽדְבָה רוּחוֹ אֹתוֹ הֵבִיאוּ אֶת-תְּרוּמַת יְהוָה לִמְלֶאכֶת אֹהֶל מוֹעֵד וּלְכָל-עֲבֹדָתוֹ וּלְבִגְדֵי הַקֹּֽדֶשׁ׃
And they came, every one whose heart stirred him up, and every one whom his spirit made willing, and they brought the LORD's offering to the work of the tabernacle of the congregation, and for all his service, and for the holy garments.
ἕκαστος καθὼς ἔλαβεν χάρισμα εἰς ἑαυτοὺς αὐτὸ διακονοῦντες ὡς καλοὶ οἰκονόμοι ποικίλης χάριτος θεοῦ
As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one another, to as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.
קְחוּ מֵֽאִתְּכֶם תְּרוּמָה לַֽיהוָה כֹּל נְדִיב לִבּוֹ יְבִיאֶהָ אֵת תְּרוּמַת יְהוָה זָהָב וָכֶסֶף וּנְחֹֽשֶׁת׃
Take ye from among you an offering unto the LORD: whosoever is of a willing heart, let him bring it, an offering of the LORD; gold, and silver, and brass,
וְעוֹד בִּרְצוֹתִי בְּבֵית אֱלֹהַי יֶשׁ-לִי סְגֻלָּה זָהָב וָכָסֶף נָתַתִּי לְבֵית-אֱלֹהַי לְמַעְלָה מִכָּל-הֲכִינוֹתִי לְבֵית הַקֹּֽדֶשׁ׃
Moreover, because I have set my affection to the house of my God, I have of mine own proper good, of gold and silver, which I have given to the house of my God, over and above all that I have prepared for the holy house,
ἐκεῖνος δὲ ὁ δοῦλος ὁ γνοὺς τὸ θέλημα τοῦ κυρίου ἑαυτοῦ καὶ μὴ ἑτοιμάσας μηδὲ ποιήσας πρὸς τὸ θέλημα αὐτοῦ δαρήσεται πολλάς·
And that servant, which knew his lord's will, and prepared not himself, neither did according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes.
ὁ πιστὸς ἐν ἐλαχίστῳ καὶ ἐν πολλῷ πιστός ἐστιν καὶ ὁ ἐν ἐλαχίστῳ ἄδικος καὶ ἐν πολλῷ ἄδικός ἐστιν
He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much: and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much.
πάντοτε γὰρ τοὺς πτωχοὺς ἔχετε μεθ' ἑαυτῶν καὶ ὅταν θέλητε δύνασθε αὐτούς εὖ ποιῆσαι ἐμὲ δὲ οὐ πάντοτε ἔχετε
For ye have the poor with you always, and whensoever ye will ye may do them good: but me ye have not always.
וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוָה אֶל-דָּוִיד אָבִי יַעַן אֲשֶׁר הָיָה עִם-לְבָבְךָ לִבְנוֹת בַּיִת לִשְׁמִי הֱֽטִיבוֹתָ כִּי הָיָה עִם-לְבָבֶֽךָ׃
But the LORD said to David my father, Forasmuch as it was in thine heart to build an house for my name, thou didst well in that it was in thine heart:
καὶ στραφεὶς πρὸς τὴν γυναῖκα τῷ Σίμωνι ἔφη Βλέπεις ταύτην τὴν γυναῖκα εἰσῆλθόν σου εἰς τὴν οἰκίαν ὕδωρ ἐπὶ τοὺς πόδας μου οὐκ ἔδωκας· αὕτη δὲ τοῖς δάκρυσιν ἔβρεξέν μου τοὺς πόδας καὶ ταῖς θριξὶν τὴς κεφαλῆς αὐτῆς ἐξέμαξεν
And he turned to the woman, and said unto Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered into thine house, thou gavest me no water for my feet: but she hath washed my feet with tears, and wiped them with the hairs of her head.
תַּאֲוַת אָדָם חַסְדּוֹ וְטֽוֹב-רָשׁ מֵאִישׁ כָּזָֽב׃
The desire of a man is his kindness: and a poor man is better than a liar.
