¹⁰ But if Timothy comes, see that he is with you without cause to fear, for he is carrying out the Lord’s work, as I also am. ¹¹ Therefore do not let anyone disdain him, but send him on his way in peace in order that he may come to me, for I am expecting him with the brothers.

¹² Now concerning Apollos our brother, I urged him many times that he should come to you with the brothers, and he was not at all willing that he should come now, but he will come whenever he has an opportunity.
