1 Corinthians 16
16
1Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I gave order to the churches of Galatia, so also do ye. 2Upon the first day of the week let each one of you lay by him in store, as he may prosper, that no collections be made when I come. 3And when I arrive, whomsoever ye shall approve, them will I send with letters to carry your bounty unto Jerusalem: 4and if it be meet for me to go also, they shall go with me. 5But I will come unto you, when I shall have passed through Macedonia; for I pass through Macedonia; 6but with you it may be that I shall abide, or even winter, that ye may set me forward on my journey whithersoever I go. 7For I do not wish to see you now by the way; for I hope to tarry a while with you, if the Lord permit. 8But I will tarry at Ephesus until Pentecost; 9for a great door and effectual is opened unto me, and there are many adversaries.
10Now if Timothy come, see that he be with you without fear; for he worketh the work of the Lord, as I also do: 11let no man therefore despise him. But set him forward on his journey in peace, that he may come unto me: for I expect him with the brethren. 12But as touching Apollos the brother, I besought him much to come unto you with the brethren: and it was not at all his will to come now; but he will come when he shall have opportunity.
13Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong. 14Let all that ye do be done in love.
15Now I beseech you, brethren (ye know the house of Stephanas, that it is the firstfruits of Achaia, and that they have set themselves to minister unto the saints), 16that ye also be in subjection unto such, and to every one that helpeth in the work and laboreth. 17And I rejoice at the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus: for that which was lacking on your part they supplied. 18For they refreshed my spirit and yours: acknowledge ye therefore them that are such.
19The churches of Asia salute you. Aquila and Prisca salute you much in the Lord, with the church that is in their house. 20All the brethren salute you. Salute one another with a holy kiss.
21The salutation of me Paul with mine own hand. 22If any man loveth not the Lord, let him be anathema. Maranatha. 23The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with you. 24My love be with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.

Collection for Jerusalem and Final Greetings
1Now concerning the collection for the kedoshim, as I directed Messiah’s communities in Galatia, you do likewise.
2On the first day of the week, let each of you set something aside, saving up whatever is gained, so no collections take place when I come.
3Then whenever I arrive, I will send whomever you approve with letters of introduction to carry your gift to Jerusalem.
4If it is advisable for me to go also, they will go with me.
5But I will come to you after I have passed through Macedonia—for I am passing through Macedonia.
6Perhaps I will stay with you, or even spend the winter, so that you can help me on my journey—wherever I go.
7For I do not wish to see you now just in passing—for I hope to stay on with you for a while, if the Lord permits.
8But I will stay on at Ephesus until Shavuot,
9for a great door has opened wide for me, though many are in opposition.
10Now if Timothy comes, see that he has nothing to fear among you—for he is doing the Lord’s work, just as I am.
11No one, then, should treat him with disrespect. But set him on his way in shalom, so that he might come to me; for I am expecting him, along with the brothers.
12Now about our brother Apollos, I strongly urged him to come to you with the brothers and sisters, and he was quite unwilling to come now—but he will come when he has an opportunity.
13Be on the alert! Stand firm in the faith! Be men of courage! Be strong!
14Let all that you do be done in love.
15Now I urge you, brothers and sisters (you know the household of Stephanas, that it is the firstfruits of Achaia, and that they have devoted themselves in service to the kedoshim),
16also to submit to people such as these, and to everyone working together and laboring.
17I rejoice at the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus, for they made up for your absence.
18For they refreshed my spirit and yours. Therefore acknowledge such men.
19Messiah’s communities in Asia greet you. Aquila and Prisca greet you warmly in the Lord, with the community that meets in their house.
20All the brothers and sisters greet you. Greet one another with a holy kiss.
21This greeting is in my own hand—Paul’s.
22If anyone does not love the Lord, let him be cursed. Marana, tha! Our Lord, come!
23The grace of the Lord Yeshua be with you.
24My love be with you all in Messiah Yeshua.
