1
Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I have given order to the churches of Galatia, even so do ye.
2
Upon 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 collections when I come.
3
And when I come, whomsoever ye shall approve by [your] letters, them will I send to bring your liberality to Jerusalem.
4
And if it be proper that I should go also, they shall go with me.
5
Now I will come to you, when I shall pass through Macedonia: for I am to pass through Macedonia.
6
And it may be that I shall abide, and even winter with you, that ye may bring me on my journey whithersoever I go.
7
For I will not see you now by the way; but I trust to tarry a while with you, if the Lord permit.
8
But I shall tarry at Ephesus until Pentecost.
9
For a great door and effectual is opened to me, and [there are] many adversaries.
10
Now if Timothy come, see that he may be with you without fear: for he worketh the work of the Lord, as I also [do].
