LSV ▾First CorinthiansFirst Corinthians 161And concerning the collection that [is] for the holy ones, as I directed to the assemblies of Galatia, so also you—do;2on every first [day] of the week, let each one of you lay by him, treasuring up whatever he may have prospered, that when I may come then collections may not be made;3and whenever I may come, whomsoever you may approve, through letters, these I will send to carry your favor to Jerusalem;4and if it be worthy for me also to go, with me they will go.5And I will come to you when I pass through Macedonia—for I pass through Macedonia—6and with you, it may be, I will abide, or even winter, that you may send me forward wherever I go,7for I do not wish to see you now in the passing, but I hope to remain a certain time with you, if the Lord may permit;8and I will remain in Ephesus until the Pentecost,9for a door has been opened to me—great and effectual—and withstanders [are] many.10And if Timotheus may come, see that he may become without fear with you, for he works the work of the Lord , even as I,11no one, then, may despise him; and send him forward in peace, that he may come to me, for I expect him with the brothers;12and concerning Apollos our brother, I begged him much that he may come to you with the brothers, and it was not at all [his] will that he may come now, and he will come when he may find convenient.13Watch, stand in the faith; be men, be strong;14let all your things be done in love.15And I beg you, brothers, you have known the household of Stephanas, that it is the first-fruit of Achaia, and they set themselves to the ministry to the holy ones—16that you also be subject to such, and to everyone who is working with [us] and laboring;17and I rejoice over the coming of Stephanas, and Fortunatus, and Achaicus, because these filled up the lack of you;18for they refreshed my spirit and yours; acknowledge, therefore, those who [are] such.19The assemblies of Asia greet you; Aquilas and Priscilla greet you much in the Lord , with the assembly in their house;20all the brothers greet you; greet one another in a holy kiss.21The salutation of [me], Paul, with my hand;22if anyone does not cherish the Lord Jesus Christ—let him be accursed! The Lord has come!23The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ [is] with you;24my love [is] with you all in Christ Jesus! Amen.First Corinthians 15Second Corinthians 1
