Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not necessarily natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible—click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed as a tool for doing comparisons of different translations—the older translations are further down the page (so you can read up from the bottom to trace the English translation history). The OET segments on this page are still early looks into the drafted texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible—please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

OET (OET-RV) And I’m giving my opinion on this because it’s beneficial for you all not only to do what began last year, but to do it willingly.![]()
OET-LV And a_opinion in this I_am_giving, because/for this for_you_all is_benefitting, who not only which to_do, but also which to_be_willing, previously_began from last_year.![]()
ULT And I give my opinion in this, for this is profitable for you, who not only began to do this a year ago, but also to desire, to do it.
UST I am telling you what I think about giving money, because hearing what I think helps you. Last year, you both wanted to and did start giving money.
BSB & MSB And this is my opinion about what is helpful for you in this [matter]: Last year [you were] the first not only to [give], but even to have such a desire.
BLB And I give a judgment in this matter, for this is profitable for you who not only have begun from a year ago to act, but also to will.
AICNT And in this matter I give my advice: for this is advantageous for you, who not only began to do, but also to desire from last year.
OEB I am only making suggestions on this matter; for this is the best course for you, since you were a year before others, not only in taking action, but also in showing your readiness to do so.
WEBBE & WMBB I give advice in this: it is expedient for you who were the first to start a year ago, not only to do, but also to be willing.
NET So here is my opinion on this matter: It is to your advantage, since you made a good start last year both in your giving and your desire to give,
LSV And I give an opinion in this: for this [is] expedient to you, who not only to do, but also to will, began before—a year ago,
FBV This is my advice: it would be good if you finished what you started. Last year you were not only the first to give but the first to want to do so.
TCNT So I am giving my advice about what is best for you in this matter. Last year you were not only the first who wanted to give, but you were also the first to begin doing so.
T4T So, as you think of our Lord’s example, I will tell you what I think that you should do in this matter of giving money. As you know, last year, because you desired to give money to help God’s people in Judea province, you began collecting money [EUP].
LEB And I am giving an opinion in this matter, because this is profitable for you who not only began previously, a year ago, to do something, but also to want to do it.
BBE And in this I give my opinion: for it is to your profit, who were the first to make a start a year before, not only to do this, but to make clear that your minds were more than ready to do it.
Moff But I will tell you what I think about it; it is to your interest to go on with this enterprise, for you started it last year, you were the first not merely to do anything but to want to do anything.
Wymth But in this matter I give you an opinion; for my doing this helps forward your own intentions, seeing that not only have you begun operations, but a year ago you already had the desire to do so.
ASV And herein I give my judgment: for this is expedient for you, who were the first to make a beginning a year ago, not only to do, but also to will.
DRA And herein I give my advice; for this is profitable for you, who have begun not only to do, but also to be willing, a year ago.
YLT and an opinion in this do I give: for this to you [is] expedient, who not only to do, but also to will, did begin before — a year ago,
Drby And I give [my] opinion in this, for this is profitable for you who began before, not only to do, but also to be willing, a year ago.

SLT And in this I give an opinion: for this is profitable to you, which no only to do, but to will, ye began before from last year.
Wbstr And in this I give my advice: for this is expedient for you, who have begun before, not only to do, but also to be forward a year ago.
KJB-1769 And herein I give my advice: for this is expedient for you, who have begun before, not only to do, but also to be forward a year ago.
KJB-1611 And herein I giue my aduice, for this is expedient for you, who haue begun before, not onely to doe, but also to be [fn]forward a yeere agoe.

Cvdl And my councell herin I geue, for this is profitable for you, which haue begonne a yeare a goo,not onely to do, but also to wyll.

Wycl And Y yyue counsel in this thing; for this is profitable to you, that not oneli han bigunne to do, but also ye bigunnen to haue wille fro the formere yere.
(And I give council/counsel in this thing; for this is profitable to you, that not only have begun to do, but also ye/you_all began to have will from the former year.)
Luth Und mein Wohlmeinen hierinnen gebe ich. Denn solches ist euch nützlich, die ihr angefangen habt vor dem Jahre her, nicht allein das Tun, sondern auch das Wollen.
(And my Probablymeinen hereinnen give I. Because such is you useful, the you(pl)/their/her begun have before/in_front_of to_him years her, not alone/only the conduct/doing, rather also the Want.)
ClVg Et consilium in hoc do: hoc enim vobis utile est, qui non solum facere, sed et velle cœpistis ab anno priore:[fn]
(And advice in/into/on this do: this because to_you(pl) useful it_is, who/which not/no only to_do, but and to_want you_begans away in_the_year priore:)
