KJV

Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, [so let him give]; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.

BSB

Each one should give what he has decided in his heart to give, not out of regret or compulsion. For God loves a cheerful giver.

WEB

Let each man give according as he has determined in his heart; not grudgingly, or under compulsion; for God loves a cheerful giver.

YLT

each one, according as he doth purpose in heart, not out of sorrow or out of necessity, for a cheerful giver doth God love,

F.O.G Original

(7) Everyone must do, just as they have chosen themselves in their heart, not from grief or under pressure because יהוה YAHWEH loves a happy giver.

F.O.G

(7) Everyone must do, just as they have chosen themselves in their heart, not from grief or under pressure because יהוה YAHWEH loves a happy giver.

F.O.G MSG

⁷Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give—not reluctantly or under compulsion, because God loves a cheerful giver.ᵇ

Footnotes:

⁷ᵇ Cheerful giver: The Greek word “hilaros” gives us our English word “hilarious”—God delights in joyful, enthusiastic giving.
