2 Corinthians 9:2-4
New King James Version
2 for I know your willingness, about which I boast of you to the Macedonians, that Achaia was ready a (A)year ago; and your zeal has stirred up the majority. 3 (B)Yet I have sent the brethren, lest our boasting of you should be in vain in this respect, that, as I said, you may be ready; 4 lest if some Macedonians come with me and find you unprepared, we (not to mention you!) should be ashamed of this [a]confident boasting.

2 Corinthians 9:2-4
New International Version
2 For I know your eagerness to help,(A) and I have been boasting(B) about it to the Macedonians, telling them that since last year(C) you in Achaia(D) were ready to give; and your enthusiasm has stirred most of them to action. 3 But I am sending the brothers(E) in order that our boasting about you in this matter should not prove hollow, but that you may be ready, as I said you would be.(F) 4 For if any Macedonians(G) come with me and find you unprepared, we—not to say anything about you—would be ashamed of having been so confident.
