The commandment is not to give but to lay aside what you have decided to give.
Because giving for the Christian should go without saying!
God loves a cheerful giver.

Paul is quoting Psalm 112:9 and summizing that the one who gives righteousness will stand in the eyes of God forever.
Paul is making a connection that giving is righteous, and helping the poor will help in their righteousness because they will unite the church, the poor Christians at Jerusalem who are spiritual can pray for them and help them with their spirituality.
Their giving will cause others to appreciate God!
