1 Corinthians 16:5–24 [5] Now I will come to you when I pass through Macedonia (for I am passing through Macedonia). [6] And it may be that I will remain, or even spend the winter with you, that you may send me on my journey, wherever I go. [7] For I do not wish to see you now on the way; but I hope to stay a while with you, if the Lord permits. [8] But I will tarry in Ephesus until Pentecost. [9] For a great and effective door has opened to me, and there are many adversaries. [10] And if Timothy comes, see that he may be with you without fear; for he does the work of the Lord, as I also do. [11] Therefore let no one despise him. But send him on his journey in peace, that he may come to me; for I am waiting for him with the brethren. [12] Now concerning our brother Apollos, I strongly urged him to come to you with the brethren, but he was quite unwilling to come at this time; however, he will come when he has a convenient time. [13] Watch, stand fast in the faith, be brave, be strong. [14] Let all that you do be done with love. [15] I urge you, brethren—you know the household of Stephanas, that it is the firstfruits of Achaia, and that they have devoted themselves to the ministry of the saints—[16] that you also submit to such, and to everyone who works and labors with us. [17] I am glad about the coming of Stephanas, Fortunatus, and Achaicus, for what was lacking on your part they supplied. [18] For they refreshed my spirit and yours. Therefore acknowledge such men. [19] The churches of Asia greet you. Aquila and Priscilla greet you heartily in the Lord, with the church that is in their house. [20] All the brethren greet you. Greet one another with a holy kiss. [21] The salutation with my own hand—Paul’s. [22] If anyone does not love the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be accursed. O Lord, come! [23] The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. [24] My love be with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.
