1 Corinthians Chapter 16 016:001 Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I commanded the assemblies of Galatia, you do likewise. 016:002 On the first day of the week, let each one of you save, as he may prosper, that no collections be made when I come. 016:003 When I arrive, I will send whoever you approve with letters to carry your gracious gift to Jerusalem. 016:004 If it is appropriate for me to go also, they will go with me.
016:005 But I will come to you when I have passed through Macedonia, for I am passing through Macedonia. 016:006 But with you it may be that I will stay, or even winter, that you may send me on my journey wherever I go. 016:007 For I do not wish to see you now in passing, but I hope to stay a while with you, if the Lord permits. 016:008 But I will stay at Ephesus until Pentecost, 016:009 for a great and effective door has opened to me, and there are many adversaries.
016:010 Now if Timothy comes, see that he is with you without fear, for he does the work of the Lord, as I also do. 016:011 Therefore let no one despise him. But set him forward on his journey in peace, that he may come to me; for I expect him with the brothers. 016:012 Now concerning Apollos, the brother, I strongly urged him to come to you with the brothers; and it was not at all his desire to come now; but he will come when he has an opportunity. 016:013 Watch! Stand firm in the faith! Be courageous! Be strong!
016:014 Let all that you do be done in love. 016:015 Now I beg you, brothers (you know the house of Stephanas, that it is the first fruits of Achaia, and that they have set themselves to serve the saints), 016:016 that you also be in subjection to such, and to everyone who helps in the work and labors. 016:017 I rejoice at the coming of Stephanas, Fortunatus, and Achaicus; for that which was lacking on your part, they supplied. 016:018 For they refreshed my spirit and yours.
Therefore acknowledge those who are like that. 016:019 The assemblies of Asia greet you. Aquila and Priscilla greet you much in the Lord, together with the assembly that is in their house. 016:020 All the brothers greet you. Greet one another with a holy kiss. 016:021 This greeting is by me, Paul, with my own hand. 016:022 If any man doesn't love the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be accursed{Greek: anathema.}. Come, Lord!{Aramaic: Maranatha!} 016:023 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
016:024 My love to all of you in Christ Jesus. Amen.
