Not because I desire a gift: but I desire fruit that may abound to your account. |
Not that I seek the gift, but I seek the fruit that abounds to your account. |
Not that I seek the gift itself, but I seek for the profit (fruit) which increases to your account. |
|
Not that I am looking for a gift, but I am looking for what may be credited to your account. |
Not that I seek or am eager for [your] gift, but I do seek and am eager for the fruit which increases to your credit [the harvest of blessing that is accumulating to your account]. |
Not that it is my character to be ever seeking the gift, but I am seeking the fruit which is accumulating to you’re account. |
|
It isn’t the value of the gift I am keen on, it is the reward that will be credited to you. |
It is not your gift that I want, but I do want the profits to pile up to your credit. |
