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

1 περὶ δὲ τῆς λογείας τῆς εἰς τοὺς ἁγίους, ὥσπερ διέταξα ταῖς ἐκκλησίαις τῆς γαλατίας, οὕτως καὶ ὑμεῖς ποιήσατε.

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.

2 κατὰ μίαν σαββάτου ἕκαστος ὑμῶν παρ᾽ ἑαυτῶ τιθέτω θησαυρίζων ὅ τι ἐὰν εὐοδῶται, ἵνα μὴ ὅταν ἔλθω τότε λογεῖαι γίνωνται.

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

3 ὅταν δὲ παραγένωμαι, οὓς ἐὰν δοκιμάσητε, δι᾽ ἐπιστολῶν τούτους πέμψω ἀπενεγκεῖν τὴν χάριν ὑμῶν εἰς ἰερουσαλήμ·

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

4 ἐὰν δὲ ἄξιον ᾖ τοῦ κἀμὲ πορεύεσθαι, σὺν ἐμοὶ πορεύσονται.

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

5 ἐλεύσομαι δὲ πρὸς ὑμᾶς ὅταν μακεδονίαν διέλθω, μακεδονίαν γὰρ διέρχομαι·

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

6 πρὸς ὑμᾶς δὲ τυχὸν παραμενῶ ἢ καὶ παραχειμάσω, ἵνα ὑμεῖς με προπέμψητε οὖ ἐὰν πορεύωμαι.

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

7 οὐ θέλω γὰρ ὑμᾶς ἄρτι ἐν παρόδῳ ἰδεῖν, ἐλπίζω γὰρ χρόνον τινὰ ἐπιμεῖναι πρὸς ὑμᾶς, ἐὰν ὁ κύριος ἐπιτρέψῃ.

8 But I remain in Ephesus until Pentecost.

8 ἐπιμενῶ δὲ ἐν ἐφέσῳ ἕως τῆς πεντηκοστῆς·

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

9 θύρα γάρ μοι ἀνέῳγεν μεγάλη καὶ ἐνεργής, καὶ ἀντικείμενοι πολλοί.

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.

10 ἐὰν δὲ ἔλθῃ τιμόθεος, βλέπετε ἵνα ἀφόβως γένηται πρὸς ὑμᾶς, τὸ γὰρ ἔργον κυρίου ἐργάζεται ὡς κἀγώ·

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.

11 μή τις οὗν αὐτὸν ἐξουθενήσῃ. προπέμψατε δὲ αὐτὸν ἐν εἰρήνῃ, ἵνα ἔλθῃ πρός με, ἐκδέχομαι γὰρ αὐτὸν μετὰ τῶν ἀδελφῶν.

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.

12 περὶ δὲ ἀπολλῶ τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ, πολλὰ παρεκάλεσα αὐτὸν ἵνα ἔλθῃ πρὸς ὑμᾶς μετὰ τῶν ἀδελφῶν· καὶ πάντως οὐκ ἦν θέλημα ἵνα νῦν ἔλθῃ, ἐλεύσεται δὲ ὅταν εὐκαιρήσῃ.

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

13 γρηγορεῖτε, στήκετε ἐν τῇ πίστει, ἀνδρίζεσθε, κραταιοῦσθε·

14 Let all things ye do be done in love.

14 πάντα ὑμῶν ἐν ἀγάπῃ γινέσθω.

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,)

15 παρακαλῶ δὲ ὑμᾶς, ἀδελφοί· οἴδατε τὴν οἰκίαν στεφανᾶ, ὅτι ἐστὶν ἀπαρχὴ τῆς ἀχαΐας καὶ εἰς διακονίαν τοῖς ἁγίοις ἔταξαν ἑαυτούς·

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

16 ἵνα καὶ ὑμεῖς ὑποτάσσησθε τοῖς τοιούτοις καὶ παντὶ τῶ συνεργοῦντι καὶ κοπιῶντι.

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

17 χαίρω δὲ ἐπὶ τῇ παρουσίᾳ στεφανᾶ καὶ φορτουνάτου καὶ ἀχαϊκοῦ, ὅτι τὸ ὑμέτερον ὑστέρημα οὖτοι ἀνεπλήρωσαν,

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

18 ἀνέπαυσαν γὰρ τὸ ἐμὸν πνεῦμα καὶ τὸ ὑμῶν. ἐπιγινώσκετε οὗν τοὺς τοιούτους.

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

19 ἀσπάζονται ὑμᾶς αἱ ἐκκλησίαι τῆς ἀσίας. ἀσπάζεται ὑμᾶς ἐν κυρίῳ πολλὰ ἀκύλας καὶ πρίσκα σὺν τῇ κατ᾽ οἶκον αὐτῶν ἐκκλησίᾳ.

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

20 ἀσπάζονται ὑμᾶς οἱ ἀδελφοὶ πάντες. ἀσπάσασθε ἀλλήλους ἐν φιλήματι ἁγίῳ.

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

21 ὁ ἀσπασμὸς τῇ ἐμῇ χειρὶ παύλου.

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

22 εἴ τις οὐ φιλεῖ τὸν κύριον, ἤτω ἀνάθεμα. μαρανα θα.

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

23 ἡ χάρις τοῦ κυρίου ἰησοῦ μεθ᾽ ὑμῶν.

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

24 ἡ ἀγάπη μου μετὰ πάντων ὑμῶν ἐν χριστῶ ἰησοῦ.
