過了這好幾年，我來這裏、對我國行施捨並獻供物。

弟兄們，我把上帝在馬其頓眾教會所賜的恩報給你們知道。就是在患難之大試驗中、他們喜樂之滿溢、跟他們很深的貧窮、竟溢流出他們慷慨施與之豐富來。我可以見證，他們是按着力量，而且過了力量，自願自動以再三再四的懇請求我們、讓他們將恩惠和團契捐去供應聖徒的需要。他們並且不單照我們所盼望的，反而憑着上帝的旨意、先把自己獻與主，也獻與我們。故此我們力勸提多說：他既怎樣把這捐獻恩惠的事提倡並開辦，就該怎樣在你們中間辦成。但你們既在凡事上、在信心、口才、知識、和萬分熱切上、又在你們待我們的愛心上、都充盈滿溢，那麼在這恩惠捐獻上也就應當充盈滿溢流出來啊。我這不是當命令說的，我乃是要藉着別人的熱切來試驗你們的愛心是不是真的罷了。你們知道我們主耶穌基督的恩：他本來富足，卻為了你們的緣故成為貧窮，使你們因着他的貧窮成為富足。

至於行善與團契捐、你們也別忘了，因為這樣的祭是上帝所喜歡的。

若有一個弟兄或姐妹素常赤身裸體，又缺欠每日的食物，而你們中間卻有人對他們說：『你們安心去好啦；願你們穿得暖，喫得飽』，卻沒有給他們身體上所必需的，有甚麼益處呢？

不過如今我先要往耶路撒冷去、供應聖徒的需要。因為馬其頓和亞該亞樂意湊集一筆團契捐，給在耶路撒冷聖徒中的窮人。他們真是樂意，其實也是欠他們債的。因為你們外國人若在他們猶太人屬靈的事上有分兒，就應該在屬肉身的事上供奉他們。

於是門徒中、按着優裕的程度、各人規定作賑的款項，送給住在猶太的弟兄。這件事他們真地實行了，由巴拿巴掃羅經手，送到長老那裏。

論到給聖徒的捐款、我從前怎樣吩咐加拉太的眾教會，你們也要怎樣行。每逢安息週的第一日、你們各人總要照自己所得的贏餘、放在身邊儲藏着，免得我來時捐款才要現湊。
