New International Version NIV
1 Now concerning the collection for the saints: As I have given orders to the churches of Galatia, even so do ye.
1
Now about the collection for the Lord’s people: Do what I told the Galatian churches to do.
2 Upon the first day of the week, let every one of you lay aside in store as God hath prospered him, so that there need be no gatherings when I come.
2
On the first day of every week, each one of you should set aside a sum of money in keeping with your income, saving it up, so that when I come no collections will have to be made.
3 And when I come, whomever ye shall approve by your letters I will send to bring your liberality unto Jerusalem.
3
Then, when I arrive, I will give letters of introduction to the men you approve and send them with your gift to Jerusalem.
4 And if it be meet that I go also, they shall go with me.
4
If it seems advisable for me to go also, they will accompany me.
