Murdock - I Corinthians - 16

16:1  And as to the collection for the saints, as I directed the churches of the Galatians, so do ye.

16:2  On each first day of the week, let every one of you lay aside and preserve at home, what he is able; that there may be no collections when I come.

16:3  And when I come, those whom ye shall select, I will send with a letter, to carry your bounty to Jerusalem.

16:4  And if it should be suitable that I also go, they shall go with me.

16:5  And I will come to you, when I pass from Macedonia; for I am about to pass through Macedonia.

16:6  And perhaps I shall remain with you, or winter with you; that ye may accompany me whither I go.

16:7  For I am not disposed to see you now, as I pass along; because I hope to spend some time with you, if my Lord permit me.

16:8  For I shall continue at Ephesus until Pentecost:

16:9  because a great door is opened to me, which is full of occupations; and the opposers are numerous.

16:10  And if Timothy come to you, see that he may be without fear among you; for he doeth the work of the Lord, as I do.

16:11  Therefore, let no one despise him; but conduct him on in peace, that he may come to me; for I wait for him with the brethren.

16:12  As for Apollos, my brethren, I entreated him much to go with the brethren to you; but his inclination was not to go to you now; but when he shall have opportunity, he will go to you.

16:13  Watch ye, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be valiant.

16:14  Let all your affairs be conducted with love.

16:15  I beseech you, my brethren, concerning the household of Stephanas; (for ye know, that they were the first-fruits of Achaia, and that they have devoted themselves to ministering to the saints ;)

16:16  that ye also give ear to them who are such; and to every one, that laboreth with us and aideth.

16:17  And I rejoice at the arrival of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus: for they have supplied that wherein ye were deficient towards me.

16:18  And they have refreshed my spirit, and yours: therefore acknowledge ye them who are such.

16:19  All the churches that are in Asia, salute you. Aquila and Priscilla, with the church in their house, salute you much in the Lord.

16:20  All the brethren salute you. Salute ye one another with a holy kiss.

16:21  The salutation in the handwriting of myself, Paul.

16:22  Whoever loveth not our Lord Jesus the Messiah, let him be accursed: our Lord cometh.

16:23  The grace of our Lord Jesus the Messiah be with you.

16:24  And my love be with you all, in the Messiah, Jesus. Amen.
