16:1 Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I gave order to the churches of Galatia, so you+ also do.
16:2 On the first day of the week let each of you+ lay by him in store, as he may prosper, that no collections be made when I come. 16:3 And when I arrive, whomever you+ will approve, I will send them with letters to carry your+ bounty to Jerusalem: 16:4 and if it is meet for me to go also, they will go with me. 16:5 But I will come to you+, after I have passed through Macedonia; for I pass through Macedonia; 16:6 but with you+ it may be that I will stay, or even winter, that you+ may set me forward on my journey wherever I go. 16:7 For I do not wish to see you+ now by the way; for I hope to tarry awhile with you+, if the Lord permits. 16:8 But I will tarry at Ephesus until Pentecost; 16:9 for a great and effectual door has opened to me, and there are many adversaries. 16:10 Now if Timothy comes, see that he is with you+ without fear; for he works the work of the Lord, as I also do: 16:11 let no man therefore despise him. But set him forward on his journey in peace, that he may come to me: for I expect him with the brothers. 16:12 But as concerning Apollos the brother, I implored him much to come to you+ with the brothers: and it was not at all [his] will to come now; but he will come when he will have opportunity. 16:13 Watch+, stand fast+ in the faith, be+ manly, be+ strong. 16:14 Let all that you+ do be done in love. 16:15 Now I urge you+, brothers (you+ know the house of Stephanas, that it is the first fruits of Achaia, and that they have set themselves in service to the saints), 16:16 that you+ also be in subjection to such, and to everyone who helps in the work and labors. 16:17 And I rejoice at the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus: for that which was lacking on your+ part they supplied. 16:18 For they refreshed my spirit and yours+: acknowledge+ therefore those who are such. 16:19 The churches of Asia greet you+. Aquila and Prisca greet you+ much in the Lord, with the church that is in their house. 16:20 All the brothers greet you+. Greet one another with a holy kiss. 16:21 The salutation of me Paul with my own hand. 16:22 If any man does not love the Lord, let him be accursed. Maranatha. 16:23 The grace of the Lord Jesus be with you+. 16:24 My love be with all of you+ in Christ Jesus. |
