1 Corinthians 16

1 Ǹjẹ́ ní ti ìdáwó fún àwọn ènìyàn mímọ́, bí mo tí wí fún àwọn ìjọ Galatia, bẹ́ẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ ní kí ẹ ṣe.

Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I directed the assemblies of Galatia, so do ye do also.

2 Ní ọjọ́ kìn-ín-ní ọ̀sẹ̀, kí olúkúlùkù yín fi sínú ìṣúra lọ́dọ̀ ara rẹ̀ ni apá kan, gẹ́gẹ́ bí Ọlọ́run ti ṣe rere fún ún, ki ó má ṣe si ìkójọ nígbà tí mo bá dé.

On [the] first of [the] week let each of you put by at home, laying up [in] whatever [degree] he may have prospered, that there may be no collections when I come.

3 Àti nígbà ti mo bá dé, àwọn ẹni tí ẹ bá yàn, àwọn ni èmi ó rán láti mú ẹ̀bùn yín gòkè lọ si Jerusalẹmu.

And when I am arrived, whomsoever ye shall approve, these I will send with letters to carry your bounty to Jerusalem:

4 Bí ó bá sì yẹ kí èmí lọ pẹ̀lú, wọn ó sì bá mi lọ.

and if it be suitable that I also should go, they shall go with me.

5 Ṣùgbọ́n èmi yóò tọ̀ yin wá, nígbà tí èmí bá ti kọjá láàrín Makedonia: nítorí èmi yóò kọjá láàrín Makedonia.

But I will come to you when I shall have gone through Macedonia; for I do go through Macedonia.

6 Bóyá èmi ó sì dúró pẹ̀lú yín, tàbí kí n tilẹ̀ lo àkókò òtútù, ki ẹ̀yin lé sìn mí ni ọ̀nà àjò mí, níbikíbi tí mo bá ń lọ.

But perhaps I will stay with you, or even winter with you, that ye may set me forward wheresoever I may go.

7 Nítorí èmi kò fẹ́ kan ri yín kí èmi sì ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀ kọjá lọ; nítorí èmi ń retí àti dúró lọ́dọ̀ yín díẹ̀, bí Olúwa bá fẹ́.

For I will not see you now in passing, for I hope to remain a certain time with you, if the Lord permit.

8 Ṣùgbọ́n èmi yóò dúró ni Efesu títí dí Pentikosti.

But I remain in Ephesus until Pentecost.

9 Nítorí pé ìlẹ̀kùn ńlá láti ṣe iṣẹ́ gidi ṣí sílẹ̀ fún mí, ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ sì ni àwọn ọ̀tá tí ń bẹ.

For a great door is opened to me and an effectual [one], and [the] adversaries many.

10 Ǹjẹ́ bí Timotiu bá dé, ẹ jẹ́ kí ó wà lọ́dọ̀ yín láìbẹ̀rù, nítorí òun ń ṣé iṣẹ́ Olúwa, bí èmi pẹ̀lú ti ń ṣe.

Now if Timotheus come, see that he may be with you without fear; for he works the work of the Lord, even as I.

11 Nítorí náà kí ẹnikẹ́ni má ṣe kẹ́gàn rẹ̀. Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ sín ín jáde lọ́nà àjò ni àlàáfíà, kí òun lè tọ̀ mí wá; nítorí tí èmí ń fi ojú sí ọ̀nà fún wíwá rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú àwọn arákùnrin.

Let not therefore any one despise him; but set him forward in peace, that he may come to me; for I expect him with the brethren.

12 Ṣùgbọ́n ní ti Apollo arákùnrin wa, mo bẹ̀ ẹ́ púpọ̀ láti tọ̀ yín wá pẹ̀lú àwọn arákùnrin, ṣùgbọ́n kì í ṣe ìfẹ́ rẹ̀ rárá láti wà nísinsin yìí, ṣùgbọ́n òun yóò wá nígbà tí ààyè bá ṣí sílẹ̀ fún un.

Now concerning the brother Apollos, I begged him much that he would go to you with the brethren; but it was not at all [his] will to go now; but he will come when he shall have good opportunity.

13 Ẹ máa ṣọ́ra, ẹ dúró ṣinṣin nínú ìgbàgbọ́, ẹ ṣe bi ọkùnrin tí ó ní ìgboyà, ẹ jẹ́ alágbára.

Be vigilant; stand fast in the faith; quit yourselves like men; be strong.

14 Ẹ máa ṣe ohun gbogbo nínú ìfẹ́.

Let all things ye do be done in love.

15 Ǹjẹ́ mo bẹ̀ yín ará, ẹ ṣá mọ ilé Stefana pé, àwọn ni ẹni àkọ́kọ́ tó gba Jesu ní Akaia, àti pé, wọn sì tí fi ará wọn fún iṣẹ́ ìránṣẹ́ àwọn ènìyàn mímọ́.

But I beseech you, brethren, (ye know the house of Stephanas, that it is the first-fruits of Achaia, and they have devoted themselves to the saints for service, )

16 Kí ẹ̀yin tẹríba fún irú àwọn báwọ̀nyí, àti fún olúkúlùkù olùbáṣiṣẹ́ pọ̀ pẹ̀lú wa tí ó sì ń ṣe làálàá.

that ye should also be subject to such, and to every one joined in the work and labouring.

17 Mo láyọ̀ fún wíwá Stefana àti Fortunatu àti Akaiku, nítorí èyí tí ó kù nípá tí yín wọ́n ti fi kún un.

But I rejoice in the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus; because they have supplied what was lacking on your part.

18 Nítorí tí wọ́n tu ẹ̀mí mí lára àti tiyín: nítorí náà, ẹ máa gba irú àwọn ti ó rí bẹ́ẹ̀.

For they have refreshed my spirit and yours: own therefore such.

19 Àwọn ìjọ ni Asia kí í yín. Akuila àti Priskilla kí í yín púpọ̀ nínú Olúwa, pẹ̀lú ìjọ tí ó wà ni ilé wọn.

The assemblies of Asia salute you. Aquila and Priscilla, with the assembly in their house, salute you much in [the] Lord.

20 Gbogbo àwọn arákùnrin kí í yín. Ẹ fi ìfẹnukonu mímọ́ kí ara yín.

All the brethren salute you. Salute one another with a holy kiss.

21 Ìkíni ti èmi Paulu, láti ọwọ́ èmi tìkára mi wá.

The salutation of [me] Paul with my own hand.

22 Bí ẹnikẹ́ni kò bá ní ìfẹ́ Jesu Kristi Olúwa, jẹ́ kí ó dì ẹni ìfibú. Máa bọ Olúwa wa!

If any one love not the Lord [Jesus Christ] let him be Anathema Maranatha.

23 Oore-ọ̀fẹ́ Jesu Kristi Olúwa kí ó wà pẹ̀lú yín!

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ [be] with you.

24 Ìfẹ́ mi wá pẹ̀lú gbogbo yín nínú Kristi Jesu. Àmín.

My love [be] with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.
