1 Corinthians 16

The Complete Jewish Bible CJB

1 Now, in regard to the collection being made for God's people: you are to do the same as I directed the congregations in Galatia to do.

2 Every week, on Motza'ei-Shabbat, each of you should set some money aside, according to his resources, and save it up; so that when I come I won't have to do fundraising.

3 And when I arrive, I will give letters of introduction to the people you have approved, and I will send them to carry your gift to Yerushalayim.

4 If it seems appropriate that I go too, they will go along with me.

5 I will visit you after I have gone through Macedonia, for I am intending to pass through Macedonia,

6 and I may stay with you or even spend the winter, so that you may help me continue my travels wherever I may go.

7 For I don't want to see you now, when I am only passing through; because I am hoping to spend some time with you, if the Lord allows it.

8 But I will remain in Ephesus until Shavu'ot,

9 because a great and important door has opened for my work, and there are many people opposing me.

10 If Timothy comes, see that he has nothing to be afraid of while he is with you; for he is doing the Lord's work, just as I am.

11 So let no one treat him with disrespect. Help him on his way in peace, so that he will return to me, for the brothers and I are expecting him.

12 As for brother Apollos, I strongly urged him to go and visit you along with the other brothers; and although it was not at all his desire to come at this time, he will come when he has the opportunity.

13 Stay alert, stand firm in the faith, behave like a mentsh, grow strong.

14 Let everything you do be done in love.

15 Now, brothers, you know that the household of Stephanas were the first people in Achaia to put their trust in the Messiah, and they have devoted themselves to serving God's people.

16 I urge you to submit yourselves to people like these and to everyone who works and toils with them.

17 I am glad that Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus are here, because they have helped make up for your not being here.

18 They have refreshed my spirit, just as they have yours. I want you to show appreciation for people like these.

19 The congregations in the province of Asia send greetings to you. Aquila and Priscilla greet you in union with the Lord, as does the congregation that meets in their house.

20 All the brothers send you their greetings. Greet one another with a holy kiss.

21 Now, I Sha'ul, greet you in my own handwriting.

22 If anyone does not love the Lord, a curse on him! Marana, ta! [Our Lord, come!]

23 May the grace of the Lord Yeshua be with you.

24 My love is with you all, in union with the Messiah Yeshua.

1 Now about the giving of money for the saints, as I gave orders to the churches of Galatia, so do you.

2 On the first day of the week, let every one of you put by him in store, in measure as he has done well in business, so that it may not be necessary to get money together when I come.

3 And when I come, I will send the men of your selection with letters to take the money you have got together to Jerusalem.

4 And if it is possible for me to go there, they will go with me.

5 But I will come to you after I have gone through Macedonia, for that is my purpose;

6 But I may be with you for a time, or even for the winter, so that you may see me on my way, wherever I go.

7 For it is not my desire to see you now, on my way; because it is my hope to be with you for some time, if that is the Lord's pleasure.

8 But I will be at Ephesus till Pentecost;

9 For a great and important door there is open to me, and there are a number of people against me.

10 Now if Timothy comes, see that he is with you without fear; because he is doing the Lord's work, even as I am:

11 See then that he has the honour which is right. But send him on his way in peace, so that he may come to me: for I am looking for him with the brothers.

12 But as for Apollos, the brother, I had a great desire for him to come to you with the brothers, but it was not his pleasure to come now; but he will come when he has a chance.

13 Be on the watch, unmoved in the faith, and be strong like men.

14 Let all you do be done in love.

15 Now I make my request to you, my brothers, for you have knowledge that the house of Stephanas is the first-fruits of Achaia, and that they have made themselves the servants of the saints,

16 That you put yourselves under such, and under everyone who is helping the Lord's work.

17 And I am glad of the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus: for they have done what was needed to make your work complete.

18 For they gave comfort to my spirit and to yours: for which cause give respect to such people.

19 The churches of Asia send their love to you. So do Aquila and Prisca, with the church which is in their house.

20 All the brothers send their love to you. Give one another a holy kiss.

21 I, Paul, send you these words of love in my writing.

22 If any man has not love for the Lord, let him be cursed. Maran atha (our Lord comes).

23 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.

24 My love be with you all in Christ Jesus. So be it.
