1 Now concerning the collection for the kadoshim, as I commanded the congregations of Galatia, you do likewise.
Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I have given order to the churches of Galatia, even so do ye.
2 On the first day of the week, let each one of you save, as he may prosper, that no collections be made when I come.
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 collections when I come.
3 When I arrive, I will send whoever you approve with letters to carry your gracious gift to Jerusalem.
And when I come, whomsoever ye shall approve by [your] letters, them will I send to bring your liberality to Jerusalem.
4 If it is appropriate for me to go also, they will go with me.
And if it be proper that I should go also, they shall go with me.
5 But I will come to you when I have passed through Macedonia, for I am passing through Macedonia.
Now I will come to you, when I shall pass through Macedonia: for I am to pass through Macedonia.
6 But with you it may be that I will stay, or even winter, that you may send me on my journey wherever I go.
And it may be that I shall abide, and even winter with you, that ye may bring me on my journey whithersoever I go.
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.
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 stay at Ephesus until Shavu'ot,
But I shall tarry at Ephesus until Pentecost.
9 for a great and effective door has opened to me, and there are many adversaries.

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.
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 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.
Let no man therefore despise him: but conduct him forth in peace, that he may come to me: for I look for him with the brethren.
12 Now concerning Apollos, the brother, I strongly urged him to come to you with the brothers; and it was not at all his desire to come now; but he will come when he has an opportunity.
As concerning [our] brother Apollos, I greatly desired him to come to 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. Stand firm in the faith. Be courageous. Be strong.
Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, acquit yourselves like men, be strong.
14 Let all that you do be done in love.
Let all your things be done with charity.
15 Now I appeal to 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 kadoshim),
I beseech you, brethren, (ye know the house of Stephanas, that it is the first fruits of Achaia, and [that] they have addicted themselves to the ministry of the saints, )
16 that you also be in subjection to such, and to everyone who helps in the work and labors.
That ye submit yourselves to such, and to every one that helpeth with [us], and laboreth.
17 I rejoice at the coming of Stephanas, Fortunatus, and Achaicus; for that which was lacking on your part, they supplied.
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 refreshed my spirit and yours. Therefore acknowledge those who are like that.
For they have refreshed my spirit and yours: therefore acknowledge ye them that are such.
19 The congregations of Asia greet you. Aquila and Priscilla greet you much in the Lord, together with the congregation that is in their house.
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 brothers greet you. Greet one another with a holy kiss.

21 This greeting is by me, Paul, with my own hand.
The salutation of [me] Paul with my own hand.
22 If anyone does not love the Lord, a curse be on him. Our Lord, come.
If any man loveth not the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be Anathema, Maran-atha.
23 The grace of the Lord Yeshua be with you.
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with you.
24 My love to all of you in Messiah Yeshua.
My love [be] with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.
