There is that scattereth, and yet increaseth; and there is that withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth to poverty.
δίδοτε καὶ δοθήσεται ὑμῖν· μέτρον καλὸν πεπιεσμένον καὶ σεσαλευμένον καὶ ὑπερεκχυνόμενον δώσουσιν εἰς τὸν κόλπον ὑμῶν· τᾧ γὰρ αὐτῷ μέτρῳ ᾧ μετρεῖτε ἀντιμετρηθήσεται ὑμῖν
Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured again. to you

He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the LORD; and that which he hath given will he pay him again.
ὁ δὲ ἐπιχορηγῶν σπέρμα τῷ σπείροντι καὶ ἄρτον εἰς βρῶσιν χορηγήσαι καὶ πληθυναῖ τὸν σπόρον ὑμῶν καὶ αὐξήσαι τὰ γεννήματα τῆς δικαιοσύνης ὑμῶν·
Now he that ministereth seed to the sower both minister bread for your food, and multiply seed your sown, and increase the fruits of your righteousness;)
Μὴ πλανᾶσθε θεὸς οὐ μυκτηρίζεται ὃ γὰρ ἐὰν σπείρῃ ἄνθρωπος τοῦτο καὶ θερίσει·
Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.
οὐ γὰρ ἄδικος ὁ θεὸς ἐπιλαθέσθαι τοῦ ἔργου ὑμῶν καὶ τοῦ κόπου τῆς ἀγάπης ἡς ἐνεδείξασθε εἰς τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ διακονήσαντες τοῖς ἁγίοις καὶ διακονοῦντες
For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister.
בַּבֹּקֶר זְרַע אֶת-זַרְעֶךָ וְלָעֶרֶב אַל-תַּנַּח יָדֶךָ כִּי אֵֽינְךָ יוֹדֵע אֵי זֶה יִכְשָׁר הֲזֶה אוֹ-זֶה וְאִם-שְׁנֵיהֶם כְּאֶחָד טוֹבִֽים׃
In the morning sow thy seed, and in the evening withhold not thine hand: for thou knowest not whether shall prosper, either this or that, or whether they both shall be alike good.

παρεγένετο δὲ ὁ πρῶτος λέγων Κύριε ἡ μνᾶ σου προσειργάσατο δέκα μνᾶς

τοῦτο δὲ λέγω· διαθήκην προκεκυρωμένην ὑπὸ τοῦ θεοῦ εἰς Χριστὸν ὁ μετὰ ἔτη τετρακόσια καὶ τριάκοντα γεγονὼς νόμος οὐκ ἀκυροῖ εἰς τὸ καταργῆσαι τὴν ἐπαγγελίαν

τοῦτο δέ φημι ἀδελφοί ὁ καιρὸς συνεσταλμένος τὸ λοιπόν ἐστιν ἵνα καὶ οἱ ἔχοντες γυναῖκας ὡς μὴ ἔχοντες ὦσιν
But this I say, brethren, the time is short: it remaineth, that both they that have wives be none; as though they had
Τοῦτο δὲ λέγω ἵνα μη τις ὑμᾶς παραλογίζηται ἐν πιθανολογίᾳ
And this I say, lest any man should beguile you with enticing words.
λέγω δὲ τοῦτο ὅτι ἕκαστος ὑμῶν λέγει Ἐγὼ μέν εἰμι Παύλου Ἐγὼ δὲ Ἀπολλῶ Ἐγὼ δὲ Κηφᾶ Ἐγὼ δὲ Χριστοῦ
