| 16:1 | [NASB] Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I directed the churches of Galatia, so do you also. |
| 16:2 | [NASB] On the first day of every week each one of you is to put aside and save, as he may prosper, so that no collections be made when I come. |
| 16:3 | [NASB] When I arrive, whomever you may approve, I will send them with letters to carry your gift to Jerusalem; |
| 16:4 | [NASB] and if it is fitting for me to go also, they will go with me. |

| 16:5 | [NASB] But I will come to you after I go through Macedonia, for I am going through Macedonia; |
| 16:6 | [NASB] and perhaps I will stay with you, or even spend the winter, so that you may send me on my way wherever I may go. |
| 16:7 | [NASB] For I do not wish to see you now {just} in passing; for I hope to remain with you for some time, if the Lord permits. |
| 16:8 | [NASB] But I will remain in Ephesus until Pentecost; |
| 16:9 | [NASB] for a wide door for effective {service} has opened to me, and there are many adversaries. |
| 16:10 | [NASB] Now if Timothy comes, see that he is with you without cause to be afraid, for he is doing the Lord's work, as I also am. |
| 16:11 | [NASB] So let no one despise him. But send him on his way in peace, so that he may come to me; for I expect him with the brethren. |
| 16:12 | [NASB] But concerning Apollos our brother, I encouraged him greatly to come to you with the brethren; and it was not at all {his} desire to come now, but he will come when he has opportunity. |
| 勸勉和問安 |
| 16:13 | [NASB] Be on the alert, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong. |
| 16:14 | [NASB] Let all that you do be done in love. |
| 16:15 | [NASB] Now I urge you, brethren (you know the household of Stephanas, that they were the first fruits of Achaia, and that they have devoted themselves for ministry to the saints), |
| 16:16 | [NASB] that you also be in subjection to such men and to everyone who helps in the work and labors. |
| 16:17 | [NASB] I rejoice over the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus, because they have supplied what was lacking on your part. |
| 16:18 | [NASB] For they have refreshed my spirit and yours. Therefore acknowledge such men. |
| 16:19 | [NASB] The churches of Asia greet you. Aquila and Prisca greet you heartily in the Lord, with the church that is in their house. |
| 16:20 | [NASB] All the brethren greet you. Greet one another with a holy kiss. |
| 16:21 | [NASB] The greeting is in my own hand--Paul. |
| 16:22 | [NASB] If anyone does not love the Lord, he is to be accursed. Maranatha. |
| 16:23 | [NASB] The grace of the Lord Jesus be with you. |
| 16:24 | [NASB] My love be with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen. |
