1 Corinthians Chapter 16
1Concerning the gathering for the Saints, as I have ordained in the Churches of Galatia, so do ye also.
2Every first day of the week, let every one of you put aside by himself, and lay up as God hath prospered him, that then there be no gatherings when I come.
3And when I am come, whomsoever ye shall allow by letters, them will I send to bring your liberality unto Jerusalem.
4And if it be meet that I go also, they shall go with me.
5Now I will come unto you, after I have gone through Macedonia (for I will pass through Macedonia.)
6And it may be that I will abide, yea, or winter with you, that ye may bring me on my way, whithersoever I go.
7For I will not see you now in my passage, but I trust to abide a while with you, if the Lord permit.
8And I will tarry at Ephesus until Pentecost.
9For a great door and effectual is opened unto me, and there are many adversaries.
10Now if Timothy come, see that he be without fear with you: for he worketh the work of the Lord, even as I do.
11Let no man therefore despise him: but convey him forth in peace, that he may come unto me: for I looked for him with the brethren.
12As touching our brother Apollos, I greatly desired him to come unto you with the brethren: but his mind was not at all to come at this time: howbeit he will come when he shall have convenient time.
13Watch ye: stand fast in the faith: quit you like men, and be strong.
14Let all your things be done in love.
15Now brethren, I beseech you (ye know the house of Stephanas, that it is the firstfruits of Achaia, and that they have given themselves to minister unto the Saints.)
16That ye be obedient even unto such, and to all that help with us and labor.
17I am glad of the coming of Stephanas, and Fortunatus, and Achaicus: for they have supplied the want of you.
18For they have comforted my spirit and yours: acknowledge therefore such men.
19The Churches of Asia salute you: Aquila and Priscilla with the Church that is in their house, salute you greatly in the Lord.
20All the brethren greet you. Greet ye one another with an holy kiss.
21The salutation of me Paul with mine own hand.
22If any man love not the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be had in execration maran-atha.
23The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
24My love be with you all in Christ Jesus, Amen. The first Epistle to the Corinthians, written from Philippi, and sent by Stephanas, and Fortunatus, and Achaicus, and Timothy.
