1 Corinthians 16

The Darby Translation DBY

1 Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I directed the assemblies of Galatia, so do *ye* do also.

2 On [the] first of [the] week let each of you put by at home, laying up [in] whatever [degree] he may have prospered, that there may be no collections when I come.

3 And when I am arrived, whomsoever ye shall approve, these I will send with letters to carry your bounty to Jerusalem:

4 and if it be suitable that *I* also should go, they shall go with me.

5 But I will come to you when I shall have gone through Macedonia; for I do go through Macedonia.

6 But perhaps I will stay with you, or even winter with you, that *ye* may set me forward wheresoever I may go.

7 For I will not see you now in passing, for I hope to remain a certain time with you, if the Lord permit.

8 But I remain in Ephesus until Pentecost.

9 For a great door is opened to me and an effectual [one], and [the] adversaries many.

10 Now if Timotheus come, see that he may be with you without fear; for he works the work of the Lord, even as I.

11 Let not therefore any one despise him; but set him forward in peace, that he may come to me; for I expect him with the brethren.

12 Now concerning the brother Apollos, I begged him much that he would go to you with the brethren; but it was not at all [his] will to go now; but he will come when he shall have good opportunity.

13 Be vigilant; stand fast in the faith; quit yourselves like men; be strong.

14 Let all things ye do be done in love.

15 But I beseech you, brethren, (ye know the house of Stephanas, that it is the first-fruits of Achaia, and they have devoted themselves to the saints for service,)

16 that *ye* should also be subject to such, and to every one joined in the work and labouring.

17 But I rejoice in the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus; because *they* have supplied what was lacking on your part.

18 For they have refreshed my spirit and yours: own therefore such.

19 The assemblies of Asia salute you. Aquila and Priscilla, with the assembly in their house, salute you much in [the] Lord.

20 All the brethren salute you. Salute one another with a holy kiss.

21 The salutation of [me] Paul with my own hand.

22 If any one love not the Lord [Jesus Christ] let him be Anathema Maranatha.

23 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ [be] with you.

24 My love [be] with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.

New Century Version NCV

1 Now I will write about the collection of money for God's people. Do the same thing I told the Galatian churches to do:

2 On the first day of every week, each one of you should put aside money as you have been blessed. Save it up so you will not have to collect money after I come.

3 When I arrive, I will send whomever you approve to take your gift to Jerusalem. I will send them with letters of introduction,

4 and if it seems good for me to go also, they will go along with me.

5 I plan to go through Macedonia, so I will come to you after I go through there.

6 Perhaps I will stay with you for a time or even all winter. Then you can help me on my trip, wherever I go.

7 I do not want to see you now just in passing. I hope to stay a longer time with you if the Lord allows it.

8 But I will stay at Ephesus until Pentecost,

9 because a good opportunity for a great and growing work has been given to me now. And there are many people working against me.

10 If Timothy comes to you, see to it that he has nothing to fear with you, because he is working for the Lord just as I am.

11 So none of you should treat Timothy as unimportant, but help him on his trip in peace so that he can come back to me. I am expecting him to come with the brothers.

12 Now about our brother Apollos: I strongly encouraged him to visit you with the other brothers. He did not at all want to come now; he will come when he has the opportunity.

13 Be alert. Continue strong in the faith. Have courage, and be strong.

14 Do everything in love.

15 You know that the family of Stephanas were the first believers in Southern Greece and that they have given themselves to the service of God's people. I ask you, brothers and sisters,

16 to follow the leading of people like these and anyone else who works and serves with them.

17 I am happy that Stephanas, Fortunatus, and Achaicus have come. You are not here, but they have filled your place.

18 They have refreshed my spirit and yours. You should recognize the value of people like these.

19 The churches in the country of Asia send greetings to you. Aquila and Priscilla greet you in the Lord, as does the church that meets in their house.

20 All the brothers and sisters here send greetings. Give each other a holy kiss when you meet.

21 I, Paul, am writing this greeting with my own hand.

22 If anyone does not love the Lord, let him be separated from God -- lost forever! Come, O Lord!

23 The grace of the Lord Jesus be with you.

24 My love be with all of you in Christ Jesus.
