At the present time, your surplus will meet their need, so that in turn their surplus will meet your need. This way there will be equality.

But by an equality, that now at this time your abundance may be a supply for their want, that their abundance also may be a supply for your want: that there may be equality:

but by equality: your abundance being a supply at this present time for their want, that their abundance also may become a supply for your want; that there may be equality:
Geneva Bible 1599
That also their aboundance may bee for your lacke, that there may be equalitie:
Darby Translation
but [on the principle] of equality; in the present time your abundance for their lack, that their abundance may be for your lack, so that there should be equality.
Young's Literal Translation
but by equality, at the present time your abundance — for their want, that also their abundance may be for your want, that there may be equality,
Bible in Basic English
But so that things may be equal; that from those things of which you have more than enough at the present time their need may be helped, and that if you are in any need they may be a help to you in the same way, making things equal.
13It is not our intention that others may be relieved while you are burdened, but that there may be equality.
15As it is written: “He who gathered much had no excess, and he who gathered little had no shortfall.”
