MKJV - I Corinthians - 16

16:1  And concerning the collection for the saints, as I charged the churches of Galatia, so also you do.

16:2  On the first day of the week let each of you put by himself, storing up what ever he is prospered, so that there may be no collections when I come.

16:3  And when I come, whomever you shall approve by your letters, I will send them to bring your gift to Jerusalem.

16:4  And if it is suitable for me to go also, they shall go with me.

16:5  But I will come to you when I pass through Macedonia; for I am going through Macedonia.

16:6  And it may be that I will stay with you, and even spend the winter with you, so that you may set me forward wherever I go.

16:7  For I do not desire to see you now in passage, but I am hoping to stay some time with you, if the Lord permits.

16:8  But I will stay in Ephesus until Pentecost.

16:9  For a great and effective door opened to me, and many are opposing.

16:10  But if Timothy comes, see that he is with you without fear, for he works the work of the Lord, even as I do.

16:11  Therefore let not any despise him, but set him forward in peace, so that he may come to me; for I am waiting for him with the brothers.

16:12  As regards our brother Apollos, I greatly desired him to come to you with the brothers, but it was not altogether his will that he come now. But he will come when he has opportunity.

16:13  Watch! Stand fast in the faith! Be men! Be strong!

16:14  Let all your things be done in charity.

16:15  But I exhort you, brothers. You know the house of Stephanas, that it is the firstfruit of Achaia, and they appointed themselves to ministry to the saints.

16:16  See that you also submit to such ones, and to everyone working and laboring with me.

16:17  I am glad at the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus; for these supplied your lack.

16:18  For they have refreshed my spirit and yours; then acknowledge such ones.

16:19  The churches of Asia greet you. Aquila and Priscilla greet you much in the Lord, with the church that is in their house.

16:20  All the brothers greet you. Greet one another with a holy kiss.

16:21  The salutation of Paul with my own hand.

16:22  If anyone does not love the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be accursed. The Lord comes!

16:23  May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with you.

16:24  Let my love be with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.
