Chapter 16
1 Corinthians · Holy Apostle Paul
¹ Now concerning the collection for the saints: as I commanded the assemblies of Galatia, you do likewise. ² On the first day of every week, let each one of you save as he may prosper, that no collections are made when I come. ³ When I arrive, I will send whoever you approve with letters to carry your gracious gift to Jerusalem. ⁴ If it is appropriate for me to go also, they will go with me.
1Cor 16:1-4
⁵ I will come to you when I have passed through Macedonia, for I am passing through Macedonia. ⁶ But with you it may be that I will stay with you, or even winter with you, that you may send me on my journey wherever I go. ⁷ For I do not wish to see you now in passing, but I hope to stay a while with you, if the Lord permits. ⁸ But I will stay at Ephesus until Pentecost, ⁹ for a great and effective door has opened to me, and there are many adversaries.
1Cor 16:5-9
¹⁰ Now if Timothy comes, see that he is with you without fear, for he does the work of the Lord, as I also do. ¹¹ 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.
1Cor 16:10-11
¹² Now concerning Apollos the brother, I strongly urged him to come to you with the brothers, but it was not at all his desire to come now; but he will come when he has an opportunity.
1Cor 16:12
¹³ Watch! Stand firm in the faith! Be courageous! Be strong! ¹⁴ Let all that you do be done in love.
1Cor 16:13-14
¹⁵ 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— ¹⁶ that you also be in subjection to such, and to everyone who helps in the work and labors. ¹⁷ I rejoice at the coming of Stephanas, Fortunatus, and Achaicus; for that which was lacking on your part, they supplied. ¹⁸ For they refreshed my spirit and yours. Therefore acknowledge those who are like that.
1Cor 16:15-18
¹⁹ The assemblies of Asia greet you. Aquila and Priscilla greet you warmly in the Lord, together with the assembly that is in their house. ²⁰ All the brothers greet you. Greet one another with a holy kiss.
