1 Corinthians 16:1-24 KJ21
[1] Now concerning the collection for the saints: As I have given orders to the churches of Galatia, even so do ye. [2] Upon the first day of the week, let every one of you lay aside in store as God hath prospered him, so that there need be no gatherings when I come. [3] And when I come, whomever ye shall approve by your letters I will 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 am passing through Macedonia). [6] And it may be that I will abide, yea, and winter with you,that ye may send me on my journey whithersoever I go. [7] For I will not see you now on my 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, has opened unto 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. [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] Now concerning our brother Apollos: I greatly desired that he should come unto you with the brethren, but it was not at all his will to come at this time; but he will come when it shall be convenient. [13] Watch ye; stand fast in the faith; acquit yourselves like men; be strong. [14] Let all your things be done with charity. [15] I beseech you, brethren (ye know the household of Stephanas and that it is the firstfruits of Achaia, and that they have devoted themselves to the ministry of the saints), [16] that ye submit yourselves unto such and to everyone that helpeth with us and laboreth. [17] I am glad about 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 those who 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 a 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.
