1 Corinthians 16:1-24
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 gatherings when I come. 3 And when I come, whomsoever ye shall
approve by your letters, them will I send to bring your liberality unto Jerusalem.
4 And if it be meet that I go also, they shall go with me.
5 Now I will come unto you, when I shall
pass through Macedonia: for I do pass through Macedonia. 6 And it may be that I will
abide, yea, and 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 will tarry at Ephesus until Pentecost. 9 For a great door and effectual is
opened unto me, and there are many adversaries.
10 Now if Timotheus come, see that he may
be with you without fear: for he worketh the work of the Lord, as I also do. 11 Let
no man therefore despise him: but conduct him forth in peace, that he may come unto me:
for I look for him with the brethren. 12 As touching our brother Apollos, I greatly
desired him to come unto you with the brethren: but his will was not at all to come at
this time; but he will come when he shall have convenient time.
13 Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit
you like men, be strong. 14 Let all your things be done with charity. 15 I beseech you,
brethren, (ye know the house of Stephanas, that it is the firstfruits of Achaia, and that
they have addicted themselves to the ministry of the saints,) 16 That ye submit
yourselves unto such, and to every one that helpeth with us, and laboureth. 17 I am
glad of the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus: for that which was lacking on
your part they have supplied. 18 For they have refreshed my spirit and yours: therefore
acknowledge ye them that are such.
19 The churches of Asia salute you. Aquila
and Priscilla salute you much in the Lord, with the church that is in their house. 20 All
the brethren greet you. Greet ye one another with an holy kiss. 21 The salutation of me
Paul with mine own hand. 22 If any man love not the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be
Anathema Maranatha. 23 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. 24 My love be
with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.
The first epistle to the Corinthians
was written from Philippi by Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus and Timotheus.
