1 Corinthians 16 :: Revised Standard Version (RSV)

1Co 16:1Now concerning the contribution for the saints: as I directed the churches of Galatia, so you also are to do.
1Co 16:2On the first day of every week, each of you is to put something aside and store it up, as he may prosper, so that contributions need not be made when I come.
1Co 16:3And when I arrive, I will send those whom you accredit by letter to carry your gift to Jerusalem.
1Co 16:4If it seems advisable that I should go also, they will accompany me.
(cf. Act 19:21 )
1Co 16:5I will visit you after passing through Macedo'nia, for I intend to pass through Macedo'nia,
1Co 16:6and perhaps I will stay with you or even spend the winter, so that you may speed me on my journey, wherever I go.
1Co 16:7For I do not want to see you now just in passing; I hope to spend some time with you, if the Lord permits.
1Co 16:8But I will stay in Ephesus until Pentecost,
1Co 16:9for a wide door for effective work has opened to me, and there are many adversaries.
1Co 16:10When Timothy comes, see that you put him at ease among you, for he is doing the work of the Lord, as I am.
1Co 16:11So let no one despise him. Speed him on his way in peace, that he may return to me; for I am expecting him with the brethren.
1Co 16:12As for our brother Apol'los, I strongly urged him to visit you with the other brethren, but it was not at all his will to come now. He will come when he has opportunity.
1Co 16:13Be watchful, stand firm in your faith, be courageous, be strong.
1Co 16:14Let all that you do be done in love.
1Co 16:15Now, brethren, you know that the household of Steph'anas were the first converts in Acha'ia, and they have devoted themselves to the service of the saints;
1Co 16:16I urge you to be subject to such men and to every fellow worker and laborer.
1Co 16:17I rejoice at the coming of Steph'anas and Fortuna'tus and Acha'icus, because they have made up for your absence;
1Co 16:18for they refreshed my spirit as well as yours. Give recognition to such men.
1Co 16:19The churches of Asia send greetings. Aq'uila and Prisca, together with the church in their house, send you hearty greetings in the Lord.
1Co 16:20All the brethren send greetings. Greet one another with a holy kiss.
1Co 16:21I, Paul, write this greeting with my own hand.
1Co 16:22If any one has no love for the Lord, let him be accursed. Our Lord, come!
1Co 16:23The grace of the Lord Jesus be with you.
1Co 16:24My love be with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.
