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

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

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

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

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

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

8 But I remain in Ephesus until Pentecost.

9 For a great door is opened to me and an effectual {one}, and {the} adversaries many.

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

14 Let all things ye do be done in love.

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

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

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

19 The assemblies of Asia salute you. Aquila and Priscilla, with the assembly in their house, salute you much in {the} Lord.

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

21 The salutation of {me} Paul with my own hand.

22 If any one love not the Lord {Jesus Christ} let him be Anathema Maranatha.

23 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ {be} with you.

24 My love {be} with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.

1 关于捐献给圣徒的事, 从前我怎样吩咐加拉太的众教会, 你们也要照着去行。

2 每逢七日的第一日, 你们各人要按着自己的收入抽一些出来留着, 免得我来的时候才现凑。

3 我来到之后, 你们选中了什么人, 我就派他们带着书信, 把你们的捐款送到耶路撒冷去。

4 如果我也应该去, 他们就可以和我一同去。

5 我现在正要路过马其顿。过了马其顿, 我就会到你们那里去。

6 我也许会和你们同住一些时候, 甚至和你们一同过冬; 这样, 我无论要到哪里去, 你们都可以给我送行。

7 我不愿意只是顺路见见你们, 主若许可, 我盼望和你们同住一个时期。

8 不过我要在以弗所住到五旬节,

9 因为这里有又宽大又有果效的门为我开了, 同时反对的人也很多。

10 如果提摩太来了, 你们务要使他在你们那里不会惧怕, 因为他像我一样是作主的工作的。

11 所以, 谁也不要小看他。你们要送他平平安安地前行, 使他到我这里来, 因为我正在等着他和弟兄们一同来。

12 至于亚波罗弟兄, 我曾再三劝他要和弟兄们一同到你们那里去; 但他不愿意现在就去, 机会到了, 他是会去的。

13 你们要警醒, 要在信仰上站立得稳, 要作大丈夫, 要刚强。

14 你们所作的一切, 都要凭爱心去作。

15 弟兄们, 你们知道司提反一家人是亚该亚初结的果子, 他们专心地服事圣徒。

16 我劝你们要顺服这样的人, 和所有与他们一同工作一同劳苦的人。

17 司提反、福徒拿都和亚该古都来了, 所以我很快乐, 因为他们补上了你们的不足,

18 使我和你们的心都得着畅快。这样的人你们要敬重他们。

19 亚西亚的众教会都问候你们。亚居拉和百基拉, 以及他们家里的教会在主里再三问候你们。

20 所有的弟兄都问候你们。你们要用圣洁的亲嘴彼此问安。

21 我保罗亲笔问候你们。

22 如果有人不爱主, 他就该受咒诅。主啊, 愿你来!

23 愿主耶稣基督的恩惠与你们同在。

24 我的爱在基督耶稣里也与你们同在。(有古卷加"阿们"。)
