1 Corinthians 16
1 Now concerning the collection for the saints: as I commanded the assemblies of Galatia, you do likewise.
pavitralokAnAM kR^ite yo. arthasaMgrahastamadhi gAlAtIyadeshasya samAjA mayA yad AdiShTAstad yuShmAbhirapi kriyatAM|
2 On the first day of every week, let each one of you save as he may prosper, that no collections are made when I come.
mamAgamanakAle yad arthasaMgraho na bhavet tannimittaM yuShmAkamekaikena svasampadAnusArAt sa nchayaM kR^itvA saptAhasya prathamadivase svasamIpe ki nchit nikShipyatAM|
3 When I arrive, I will send whoever you approve with letters to carry your gracious gift to Jerusalem.
tato mamAgamanasamaye yUyaM yAneva vishvAsyA iti vediShyatha tebhyo. ahaM patrANi dattvA yuShmAkaM taddAnasya yirUshAlamaM nayanArthaM tAn preShayiShyAmi|
4 If it is appropriate for me to go also, they will go with me.
kintu yadi tatra mamApi gamanam uchitaM bhavet tarhi te mayA saha yAsyanti|
5 I will come to you when I have passed through Macedonia, for I am passing through Macedonia.
sAmprataM mAkidaniyAdeshamahaM paryyaTAmi taM paryyaTya yuShmatsamIpam AgamiShyAmi|
6 But with you it may be that I will stay with you, or even winter with you, that you may send me on my journey wherever I go.
anantaraM kiM jAnAmi yuShmatsannidhim avasthAsye shItakAlamapi yApayiShyAmi cha pashchAt mama yat sthAnaM gantavyaM tatraiva yuShmAbhirahaM prerayitavyaH|
7 For I do not wish to see you now in passing, but I hope to stay a while with you, if the Lord permits.
yato. ahaM yAtrAkAle kShaNamAtraM yuShmAn draShTuM nechChAmi kintu prabhu ryadyanujAnIyAt tarhi ki nchid dIrghakAlaM yuShmatsamIpe pravastum ichChAmi|
8 But I will stay at Ephesus until Pentecost,
tathApi nistArotsavAt paraM pa nchAshattamadinaM yAvad iphiShapuryyAM sthAsyAmi|
9 for a great and effective door has opened to me, and there are many adversaries.
yasmAd atra kAryyasAdhanArthaM mamAntike bR^ihad dvAraM muktaM bahavo vipakShA api vidyante|
10 Now if Timothy comes, see that he is with you without fear, for he does the work of the Lord, as I also do.
timathi ryadi yuShmAkaM samIpam AgachChet tarhi yena nirbhayaM yuShmanmadhye vartteta tatra yuShmAbhi rmano nidhIyatAM yasmAd ahaM yAdR^ik so. api tAdR^ik prabhoH karmmaNe yatate|
11 Therefore let no one despise him. But set him forward on his journey in peace, that he may come to me; for I expect him with the brothers.
ko. api taM pratyanAdaraM na karotu kintu sa mamAntikaM yad AgantuM shaknuyAt tadarthaM yuShmAbhiH sakushalaM preShyatAM| bhrAtR^ibhiH sArddhamahaM taM pratIkShe|
12 Now concerning Apollos the brother, I strongly urged him to come to you with the brothers, but it was not at all his desire to come now; but he will come when he has an opportunity.
ApalluM bhrAtaramadhyahaM nivedayAmi bhrAtR^ibhiH sAkaM so. api yad yuShmAkaM samIpaM vrajet tadarthaM mayA sa punaH punaryAchitaH kintvidAnIM gamanaM sarvvathA tasmai nArochata, itaHparaM susamayaM prApya sa gamiShyati|
13 Watch! Stand firm in the faith! Be courageous! Be strong!
yUyaM jAgR^ita vishvAse susthirA bhavata pauruShaM prakAshayata balavanto bhavata|
14 Let all that you do be done in love.
yuShmAbhiH sarvvANi karmmANi premnA niShpAdyantAM|
15 Now I beg you, brothers—you know the house of Stephanas, that it is the first fruits of Achaia, and that they have set themselves to serve the saints—
he bhrAtaraH, ahaM yuShmAn idam abhiyAche stiphAnasya parijanA AkhAyAdeshasya prathamajAtaphalasvarUpAH, pavitralokAnAM paricharyyAyai cha ta Atmano nyavedayan iti yuShmAbhi rj nAyate|
16 that you also be in subjection to such, and to everyone who helps in the work and labors.
ato yUyamapi tAdR^ishalokAnAm asmatsahAyAnAM shramakAriNA ncha sarvveShAM vashyA bhavata|
17 I rejoice at the coming of Stephanas, Fortunatus, and Achaicus; for that which was lacking on your part, they supplied.
stiphAnaH pharttUnAta AkhAyikashcha yad atrAgaman tenAham AnandAmi yato yuShmAbhiryat nyUnitaM tat taiH sampUritaM|
18 For they refreshed my spirit and yours. Therefore acknowledge those who are like that.
tai ryuShmAkaM mama cha manAMsyApyAyitAni| tasmAt tAdR^ishA lokA yuShmAbhiH sammantavyAH|
19 The assemblies of Asia greet you. Aquila and Priscilla greet you warmly in the Lord, together with the assembly that is in their house.
yuShmabhyam AshiyAdeshasthasamAjAnAM namaskR^itim AkkilapriskillayostanmaNDapasthasamiteshcha bahunamaskR^itiM prajAnIta|
20 All the brothers greet you. Greet one another with a holy kiss.
sarvve bhrAtaro yuShmAn namaskurvvante| yUyaM pavitrachumbanena mitho namata|
21 This greeting is by me, Paul, with my own hand.
paulo. ahaM svakaralikhitaM namaskR^itiM yuShmAn vedaye|
22 If any man does not love the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be cursed. Come, Lord!
yadi kashchid yIshukhrIShTe na prIyate tarhi sa shApagrasto bhavet prabhurAyAti|
23 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
asmAkaM prabho ryIshukhrIShTasyAnugraho yuShmAn prati bhUyAt|
24 My love to all of you in Christ Jesus. Amen.
