1 Corinthians 16

[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16]

1COR 16:1 As to the collection for God's people, what I have directed the Churches of Galatia to do, you must do also.

1COR 16:2 On the first day of every week let each of you put on one side and store up at his home whatever gain has been granted to him; so that whenever I come, there may then be no collections going on.

1COR 16:3 And when I am with you, whatever brethren you accredit by letter I will send to carry your kind gift to Jerusalem.

1COR 16:4 And if it is worth while for me also to make the journey, they shall go as my companions.

1COR 16:5 I shall come to you after passing through Macedonia; for my plan will be to pass through Macedonia;

1COR 16:6 and I shall make some stay with you perhaps, or even spend the winter with you, in order that you may help me forward, whichever way I travel.

1COR 16:7 For I do not wish to see you on this occasion merely in passing; but if the Lord permits, I hope to remain some time with you.

1COR 16:8 I shall remain in Ephesus, however, until the time of the Harvest Festival,

1COR 16:9 for a wide door stands open before me which demands great efforts, and we have many opponents.

1COR 16:10 If Timothy pays you a visit, see that he is free from fear in his relations with you; for he is engaged in the Master's work just as I am.

1COR 16:11 Therefore let no one slight him, but all of you should help him forward in peace to join me; for I am waiting for him and others of the brethren.

1COR 16:12 As for our brother Apollos, I have repeatedly urged him to accompany the brethren who are coming to you: but he is quite resolved not to do so at present. He will come, however, when he has a good opportunity.

1COR 16:13 Be on the alert; stand firm in the faith; acquit yourselves like men; be strong.

1COR 16:14 Let all that you do be done from motives of love.

1COR 16:15 And I beseech you, brethren--you know the household of Stephanas, how they were the earliest Greek converts to Christ, and have devoted themselves to the service of God's people--

1COR 16:16 I beseech you, on your part, to show deference to such men, and to every one who participates in their work and toils hard.

1COR 16:17 It is a joy to me that Stephanas, Fortunatus and Achaicus have now arrived, because what was wanting so far as you are concerned they have supplied.

1COR 16:18 They have refreshed my spirit, and yours. Acknowledge such men as these.

1COR 16:19 The Churches in the province of Asia send you greetings; and Aquila and Prisca, in hearty Christian love, do the same, together with the Church which meets at their house.

1COR 16:20 The brethren all send greetings to you. Greet one another with a holy kiss.

1COR 16:21 The final greeting of me--Paul--with my own hand.

1COR 16:22 If any one is destitute of love to the Lord, let him be accursed. OUR LORD IS COMING.

1COR 16:23 The grace of the Lord Jesus be with you.

1COR 16:24 My love in Christ Jesus be with you all.
