哥林多前书 16
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
捐钱给圣徒的事
16 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,你们选中了甚么人,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。
保罗的行程
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。
劝勉和问安
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。你们要用圣洁的亲吻彼此问安。
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”。)

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
The Collection for the Saints
16 Now concerning the collection for the saints: you should follow the directions I gave to the churches of Galatia. 2 On the first day of every week, each of you is to put aside and save whatever extra you earn, so that collections need not be taken when I come. 3 And when I arrive, I will send any whom you approve with letters to take your gift to Jerusalem. 4 If it seems advisable that I should go also, they will accompany me.
Plans for Travel
5 I will visit you after passing through Macedonia—for I intend to pass through Macedonia— 6 and perhaps I will stay with you or even spend the winter, so that you may send me on my way, wherever I go. 7 I do not want to see you now just in passing, for I hope to spend some time with you, if the Lord permits. 8 But I will stay in Ephesus until Pentecost, 9 for a wide door for effective work has opened to me, and there are many adversaries.
10 If Timothy comes, see that he has nothing to fear among you, for he is doing the work of the Lord just as I am; 11 therefore let no one despise him. Send him on his way in peace, so that he may come to me; for I am expecting him with the brothers.
12 Now concerning our brother Apollos, I strongly urged him to visit you with the other brothers, but he was not at all willing[a] to come now. He will come when he has the opportunity.
Final Messages and Greetings
13 Keep alert, stand firm in your faith, be courageous, be strong. 14 Let all that you do be done in love.
15 Now, brothers and sisters,[b] you know that members of the household of Stephanas were the first converts in Achaia, and they have devoted themselves to the service of the saints; 16 I urge you to put yourselves at the service of such people, and of everyone who works and toils with them. 17 I rejoice at the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus, because they have made up for your absence; 18 for they refreshed my spirit as well as yours. So give recognition to such persons.
19 The churches of Asia send greetings. Aquila and Prisca, together with the church in their house, greet you warmly in the Lord. 20 All the brothers and sisters[c] send greetings. Greet one another with a holy kiss.
21 I, Paul, write this greeting with my own hand. 22 Let anyone be accursed who has no love for the Lord. Our Lord, come![d] 23 The grace of the Lord Jesus be with you. 24 My love be with all of you in Christ Jesus.[e]

New King James Version
Collection for the Saints
16 Now concerning (A)the collection for the saints, as I have given orders to the churches of Galatia, so you must do also: 2 (B)On the first day of the week let each one of you lay something aside, storing up as he may prosper, that there be no collections when I come. 3 And when I come, (C)whomever you approve by your letters I will send to bear your gift to Jerusalem. 4 (D)But if it is fitting that I go also, they will go with me.
Personal Plans(E)
5 Now I will come to you (F)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 (G)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, (H)if the Lord permits.
8 But I will tarry in Ephesus until (I)Pentecost. 9 For (J)a great and effective door has opened to me, and (K)there are many adversaries.
10 And (L)if Timothy comes, see that he may be with you without fear; for (M)he does the work of the Lord, as I also do. 11 (N)Therefore let no one despise him. But send him on his journey (O)in peace, that he may come to me; for I am waiting for him with the brethren.
12 Now concerning our brother (P)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.
Final Exhortations
13 (Q)Watch, (R)stand fast in the faith, be brave, (S)be strong. 14 (T)Let all that you do be done with love.
15 I urge you, brethren—you know (U)the household of Stephanas, that it is (V)the firstfruits of Achaia, and that they have devoted themselves to (W)the ministry of the saints— 16 (X)that you also submit to such, and to everyone who works and (Y)labors with us.
17 I am glad about the coming of Stephanas, Fortunatus, and Achaicus, (Z)for what was lacking on your part they supplied. 18 (AA)For they refreshed my spirit and yours. Therefore (AB)acknowledge such men.
Greetings and a Solemn Farewell
19 The churches of Asia greet you. Aquila and Priscilla greet you heartily in the Lord, (AC)with the church that is in their house. 20 All the brethren greet you.
(AD)Greet one another with a holy kiss.
21 (AE)The salutation with my own hand—Paul’s.
22 If anyone (AF)does not love the Lord Jesus Christ, (AG)let him be [a]accursed. (AH)O[b] Lord, come!
23 (AI)The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. 24 My love be with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.
