And concerning the collection that [is] for the saints, as I directed to the assemblies of Galatia, so also ye -- do ye;
2
on 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;
3
and whenever I may come, whomsoever ye may approve, through letters, these I will send to carry your favour to Jerusalem;
4
and if it be meet for me also to go, with me they shall go.
5
And I will come unto you, when I pass through Macedonia -- for Macedonia I do pass through --
6
and with you, it may be, I will abide, or even winter, that ye may send me forward whithersoever I go,
7
for 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;
