1 Corinthians 16
16
1And concerning the collection that [is] for the saints, as I directed to the assemblies of Galatia, so also ye — do ye;
2on every first [day] of the week, let each one of you lay by him, treasuring up whatever he may have prospered, that when I may come then collections may not be made;
3and whenever I may come, whomsoever ye may approve, through letters, these I will send to carry your favour to Jerusalem;
4and if it be meet for me also to go, with me they shall go.
5And I will come unto you, when I pass through Macedonia — for Macedonia I do pass through —
6and with you, it may be, I will abide, or even winter, that ye may send me forward whithersoever I go,
7for I do not wish to see you now in the passing, but I hope to remain a certain time with you, if the Lord may permit;
8and I will remain in Ephesus till the Pentecost,
9for a door to me hath been opened — great and effectual — and withstanders [are] many.
10And if Timotheus may come, see that he may become without fear with you, for the work of the Lord he doth work, even as I,
11no one, then, may despise him; and send ye him forward in peace, that he may come to me, for I expect him with the brethren;
12and concerning Apollos our brother, much I did entreat him that he may come unto you with the brethren, and it was not at all [his] will that he may come now, and he will come when he may find convenient.
13Watch ye, stand in the faith; be men, be strong;
14let all your things be done in love.
15And I entreat you, brethren, ye have known the household of Stephanas, that it is the first-fruit of Achaia, and to the ministration to the saints they did set themselves —
16that ye also be subject to such, and to every one who is working with [us] and labouring;
17and I rejoice over the presence of Stephanas, and Fortunatus, and Achaicus, because the lack of you did these fill up;
18for they did refresh my spirit and yours; acknowledge ye, therefore, those who [are] such.
19Salute you do the assemblies of Asia; salute you much in the Lord do Aquilas and Priscilla, with the assembly in their house;
20salute you do all the brethren; salute ye one another in an holy kiss.
21The salutation of [me] Paul with my hand;
22if any one doth not love the Lord Jesus Christ — let him be anathema! The Lord hath come!
23The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ [is] with you;
24my love [is] with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.

Administrative and Personal
1Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I have given order to the churches of Galatia, even so do ye. 2Upon the first day of the week let every one of you lay by him in store, as God hath prospered him, that there be no gatherings when I come. 3And when I come, whomsoever ye shall approve by your 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, when I shall pass through Macedonia: for I do pass through Macedonia. 6And it may be that I will abide, yea, and winter with you, that ye may bring me on my journey whithersoever I go. 7For I will not see you now by the way; but I trust to tarry a while with you, if the Lord permit. 8But I will tarry at Ephesus until Pentecost. 9For a great door and effectual is opened unto me, and there are many adversaries.
10Now if Timotheus come, see that he may be with you without fear: for he worketh the work of the Lord, as I also do. 11Let no man therefore despise him: but conduct him forth in peace, that he may come unto me: for I look for him with the brethren.
12As touching our brother Apollos, I greatly desired him to come unto you with the brethren: but his will was not at all to come at this time; but he will come when he shall have convenient time.
13Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong. 14Let all your things be done with charity.
15I beseech you, brethren, (ye know the house of Stephanas, that it is the firstfruits of Achaia, and that they have addicted themselves to the ministry of the saints,) 16that ye submit yourselves unto such, and to every one that helpeth with us, and laboureth. 17I am glad of the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus: for that which was lacking on your part they have supplied. 18For they have refreshed my spirit and your's: therefore acknowledge ye them that are such.
19The churches of Asia salute you. Aquila and Priscilla salute you much in the Lord, with the church that is in their house. 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 Anathema 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 was written from Philippi by Stephanas, and Fortunatus, and Achaicus, and Timotheus.
