The Collection of Gifts
16 Now concerning (A)the collection for (B)the saints, as (C)I directed the churches of (D)Galatia, so do you also. 2 On (E)the first day of every week each one of you is to [a]set something aside, saving whatever he has prospered, so that (F)no collections be made when I come. 3 And when I arrive, (G)whomever you may approve, I will send them with letters to carry your gracious gift to Jerusalem, 4 and if it is fitting for me to go also, they will go with me.
5 But I (H)will come to you after I go through (I)Macedonia, for I (J)am going through Macedonia; 6 and perhaps I will stay with you, or even spend the winter, so that you may (K)send me on my way wherever I may go. 7 For I do not wish to see you now (L)just in passing, for I hope to remain with you for some time, (M)if the Lord permits. 8 But I will remain in (N)Ephesus until (O)Pentecost, 9 for a (P)wide and effective door has opened to me, and (Q)there are many adversaries.
10 Now if (R)Timothy comes, take care that he is with you without fear, for he is doing (S)the Lord’s work, as I also am. 11 (T)So let no one despise him. But (U)send him on his way (V)in peace, so that he may come to me, for I expect him with the brothers.
12 Now concerning (W)Apollos our brother, I encouraged him greatly to come to you with the brothers, and it was not at all his desire to come now, but he will come when he has opportunity.
Final Instructions and Greetings
13 (X)Be watchful, (Y)stand firm in the faith, (Z)act like men, (AA)be strong. 14 Let all that you do be done (AB)in love.
15 Now I exhort you, brothers (you know the (AC)household of Stephanas, that [b]they were the (AD)first fruits of (AE)Achaia, and that they have devoted themselves for (AF)service to (AG)the saints), 16 that (AH)you also be in subjection to such men and to everyone who helps in the work and labors. 17 And I rejoice over the [c](AI)coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus, because they have [d]supplied (AJ)what was lacking on your part. 18 For they (AK)have refreshed my spirit and yours. Therefore (AL)recognize such men.
19 The churches of (AM)Asia greet you. (AN)Aquila and Prisca greet you heartily in the Lord, with (AO)the church that is in their house. 20 All the brothers greet you. (AP)Greet one another with a holy kiss.
21 The greeting is in (AQ)my own hand—[e]Paul. 22 If anyone does not love the Lord, he is to be [f](AR)accursed. [g](AS)Maranatha. 23 (AT)The grace of the Lord Jesus be with you. 24 My love be with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.

Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Traditional)
論為聖徒的捐項
16 論到為聖徒捐錢，我從前怎樣吩咐加拉太的眾教會，你們也當怎樣行。 2 每逢七日的第一日，各人要照自己的進項抽出來留著，免得我來的時候現湊。 3 及至我來到了，你們寫信舉薦誰，我就打發他們，把你們的捐資送到耶路撒冷去。 4 若我也該去，他們可以和我同去。 5 我要從馬其頓經過，既經過了，就要到你們那裡去。 6 或者和你們同住幾時，或者也過冬。無論我往哪裡去，你們就可以給我送行。 7 我如今不願意路過見你們，主若許我，我就指望和你們同住幾時。 8 但我要仍舊住在以弗所，直等到五旬節， 9 因為有寬大又有功效的門為我開了，並且反對的人也多。
10 若是提摩太來到，你們要留心，叫他在你們那裡無所懼怕，因為他勞力做主的工，像我一樣。 11 所以，無論誰都不可藐視他，只要送他平安前行，叫他到我這裡來，因我指望他和弟兄們同來。 12 至於兄弟亞波羅，我再三地勸他同弟兄們到你們那裡去，但這時他決不願意去，幾時有了機會他必去。
勸勉
13 你們務要警醒，在真道上站立得穩，要做大丈夫，要剛強。 14 凡你們所做的，都要憑愛心而做。
15 弟兄們，你們曉得司提反一家，是亞該亞初結的果子，並且他們專以服侍聖徒為念。 16 我勸你們順服這樣的人，並一切同工同勞的人。 17 司提反和福徒拿都並亞該古到這裡來，我很喜歡，因為你們待我有不及之處，他們補上了。 18 他們叫我和你們心裡都快活。這樣的人，你們務要敬重。
問安
19 亞細亞的眾教會問你們安。亞居拉和百基拉並在他們家裡的教會，因主多多地問你們安。 20 眾弟兄都問你們安。你們要親嘴問安，彼此務要聖潔。
21 我保羅親筆問安。 22 若有人不愛主，這人可詛可咒。主必要來！ 23 願主耶穌基督的恩常與你們眾人同在！ 24 我在基督耶穌裡的愛與你們眾人同在。阿們。
1 Corinthians 16
King James Version
16 Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I have given order to the churches of Galatia, even so do ye.
2 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.
3 And when I come, whomsoever ye shall approve by your letters, them will I send to bring your liberality unto Jerusalem.
4 And if it be meet that I go also, they shall go with me.
5 Now I will come unto you, when I shall pass through Macedonia: for I do pass through Macedonia.
6 And it may be that I will abide, yea, and winter with you, that ye may bring me on my journey whithersoever I go.
7 For I will not see you now by the way; but I trust to tarry a while with you, if the Lord permit.
8 But I will tarry at Ephesus until Pentecost.
9 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.
