为信徒的捐款

16 关于为上帝子民捐款的事情,你们应该按照以前我给加拉太教会的吩咐去做: 每个星期天,你们每人都应该从你们的收入里拔出一些钱,把它们积存起来,免得等我来时,你们才现凑。 我到之后,会派你们所赞成的人,带着介绍信,携带你们的礼物去耶路撒冷, 如果我也去妥当,那么他们将与我同去。

保罗的计划

我路过马其顿时会来看望你们,因为我确实计划路过马其顿, 我或许会在你们那里住些时候,甚至过冬。那样不论我要去哪里,你们都可以送我上路。 我现在不想只是路过时看看你们就走,因为我想和你们呆上一段时间,如果主允许的话。 我要在以弗所一直住到五旬节 [a] 因为一扇富有工作成效的宽阔大门已向我敞开,另外反对我的人也很多。

10 如果提摩太来,一定要让他与你们在一起时舒服自在,因为他也像我一样在为主工作。 11 因此,任何人都不应该拒绝接受提摩太。要平平安安地送他上路,好让他回到我这里。我正在等待他和其他的兄弟们的到来。

12 关于我们的兄弟亚波罗,我曾竭力劝他和其他兄弟一起去拜访你们。他现在还不想去,但是只要一有机会,他就会去看望你们的。

保罗结束他的信

13 要警惕,要保持坚定的信仰,要勇敢坚强, 14 凡事都要满怀爱心去做。

15 你们知道司提法一家人是亚该亚的第一批归主的信徒。他们把自己贡献给了为上帝子民的服务。兄弟们,我请求你们, 16 要听从像这样人的领导,服从和他们一起工作和侍奉的人。

17 我很高兴司提反、福徒拿都和亚该古都来了。虽然你们不在这里,但是,他们填补了你们不在这里的遗撼。 18 他们还给了我和你们极大的鼓励。你们应该认识到这些人的价值。

19 亚西亚省的众教会向你们问好,亚居拉和百基拉在主内向你们热情问候,在他们家相聚的教会也向你们问好。 20 这里所有的兄弟们都向你们问好。你们相见时,请用圣吻彼此问候。

21 我,保罗,亲笔写下这些问候。

22 如果有人不爱主,就让他遭受诅咒。

我们的主,请来吧!

23 愿主耶稣的恩典与你们同在。

24 在基督耶稣内,我的爱与你们所有的人同在。

The Collection for the Lord’s People

16 Now about the collection(A) for the Lord’s people:(B) Do what I told the Galatian(C) churches to do. On the first day of every week,(D) each one of you should set aside a sum of money in keeping with your income, saving it up, so that when I come no collections will have to be made.(E) Then, when I arrive, I will give letters of introduction to the men you approve(F) and send them with your gift to Jerusalem. If it seems advisable for me to go also, they will accompany me.

Personal Requests

After I go through Macedonia, I will come to you(G)—for I will be going through Macedonia.(H) Perhaps I will stay with you for a while, or even spend the winter, so that you can help me on my journey,(I) wherever I go. For I do not want to see you now and make only a passing visit; I hope to spend some time with you, if the Lord permits.(J) But I will stay on at Ephesus(K) until Pentecost,(L) because a great door for effective work has opened to me,(M) and there are many who oppose me.

10 When Timothy(N) comes, see to it that he has nothing to fear while he is with you, for he is carrying on the work of the Lord,(O) just as I am. 11 No one, then, should treat him with contempt.(P) Send him on his way(Q) in peace(R) so that he may return to me. I am expecting him along with the brothers.

12 Now about our brother Apollos:(S) I strongly urged him to go to you with the brothers. He was quite unwilling to go now, but he will go when he has the opportunity.

13 Be on your guard; stand firm(T) in the faith; be courageous; be strong.(U) 14 Do everything in love.(V)

15 You know that the household of Stephanas(W) were the first converts(X) in Achaia,(Y) and they have devoted themselves to the service(Z) of the Lord’s people.(AA) I urge you, brothers and sisters, 16 to submit(AB) to such people and to everyone who joins in the work and labors at it. 17 I was glad when Stephanas, Fortunatus and Achaicus arrived, because they have supplied what was lacking from you.(AC) 18 For they refreshed(AD) my spirit and yours also. Such men deserve recognition.(AE)

Final Greetings

19 The churches in the province of Asia(AF) send you greetings. Aquila and Priscilla[a](AG) greet you warmly in the Lord, and so does the church that meets at their house.(AH) 20 All the brothers and sisters here send you greetings. Greet one another with a holy kiss.(AI)

21 I, Paul, write this greeting in my own hand.(AJ)

22 If anyone does not love the Lord,(AK) let that person be cursed!(AL) Come, Lord[b]!(AM)

23 The grace of the Lord Jesus be with you.(AN)

24 My love to all of you in Christ Jesus. Amen.[c]

16 Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I have given order to the churches of Galatia, even so do ye.

Upon the first day of the week let every one of you lay by him in store, as God hath prospered him, that there be no gatherings when I come.

And when I come, whomsoever ye shall approve by your letters, them will I send to bring your liberality unto Jerusalem.

And if it be meet that I go also, they shall go with me.

Now I will come unto you, when I shall pass through Macedonia: for I do pass through Macedonia.

And it may be that I will abide, yea, and winter with you, that ye may bring me on my journey whithersoever I go.

For I will not see you now by the way; but I trust to tarry a while with you, if the Lord permit.

But I will tarry at Ephesus until Pentecost.

For a great door and effectual is opened unto me, and there are many adversaries.

10 Now if Timotheus come, see that he may be with you without fear: for he worketh the work of the Lord, as I also do.

11 Let no man therefore despise him: but conduct him forth in peace, that he may come unto me: for I look for him with the brethren.

12 As touching our brother Apollos, I greatly desired him to come unto you with the brethren: but his will was not at all to come at this time; but he will come when he shall have convenient time.

13 Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong.

14 Let all your things be done with charity.

15 I beseech you, brethren, (ye know the house of Stephanas, that it is the firstfruits of Achaia, and that they have addicted themselves to the ministry of the saints,)

16 That ye submit yourselves unto such, and to every one that helpeth with us, and laboureth.

17 I am glad of the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus: for that which was lacking on your part they have supplied.

18 For they have refreshed my spirit and yours: therefore acknowledge ye them that are such.

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

20 All the brethren greet you. Greet ye one another with an holy kiss.

21 The salutation of me Paul with mine own hand.

22 If any man love not the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be Anathema Maranatha.

23 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.

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