过了几年我带着捐款回来周济本国，同时也带了祭物，

弟兄们，我现在把神赐给马其顿众教会的恩典告诉你们：他们在患难中受到极大的考验的时候，他们满溢的喜乐和极度的贫乏，汇流出丰厚的慷慨来。我可以作证，他们是按着能力，并且是超过了能力，自愿地再三恳求我们，准许他们在供应圣徒的事上有分。他们超过了我们所期望的，照着神的旨意，先把自己献给主，然后献给我们。因此，我们勉励提多，既然开始了这慈善的事，就应当在你们那里把这事办好。你们在一切事上，就如信心、口才、知识、热情和爱我们的心，既然都是富足的，那么，在这慈善的事上，也要显出你们是富足的。我这样说，不是吩咐你们，而是藉着别人的热心来考验你们的爱心是否真实。你们是知道我们的主耶稣基督的恩典的：他本来富足，却为你们成了贫穷，要使你们因他的贫穷成为富足。

你们也不要忘记行善和捐输，这样的祭是神所喜悦的。

如果有弟兄或姊妹缺衣少食，而你们中间有人对他们说：“平平安安地去吧！愿你们穿得暖，吃得饱。”却不给他们身体所需用的，那有什么用处呢？

不过，我现在为了供应圣徒的事要往耶路撒冷去；因为马其顿和亚该亚人乐意捐了一些钱，给耶路撒冷圣徒中的穷人。他们是乐意的，而且那也是他们的本分（“本分”原文作“债”），因为外族人既然分享了犹太人属灵的好处，就应该供应他们肉身的需要。

于是门徒决定按着各人的力量捐款，好送给住在犹太的弟兄。他们就这样行了，由巴拿巴和扫罗经手送到长老们那里。

关于捐献给圣徒的事，从前我怎样吩咐加拉太的众教会，你们也要照着去行。每逢七日的第一日，你们各人要按着自己的收入抽一些出来留着，免得我来的时候才现凑。
