| 論為聖徒的捐錢 |
| 16:1 | 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。 [NASB] Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I directed the churches of Galatia, so do you also. |
| 16:2 | 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。 [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 | 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。 [NASB] When I arrive, whomever you may approve, I will send them with letters to carry your gift to Jerusalem; |
| 16:4 | 若我也該去,他們可以和我同去。 [NASB] and if it is fitting for me to go also, they will go with me. |
| 保羅行程的計劃 |
| 16:5 | 我要從馬其頓經過;既經過了,就要到你們那�堨h, [NASB] But I will come to you after I go through Macedonia, for I am going through Macedonia; |
| 16:6 | 或者和你們同住幾時,或者也過冬。無論我往那�堨h,你們就可以給我送行。 [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 | 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。 [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 | 但我要仍舊住在以弗所,直等到五旬節; [NASB] But I will remain in Ephesus until Pentecost; |
| 16:9 | 因為有寬大又有功效的門為我開了,並且反對的人也多。 [NASB] for a wide door for effective {service} has opened to me, and there are many adversaries. |
| 16:10 | 若是提摩太來到,你們要留心,叫他在你們那�媯L所懼怕;因為他勞力作主的工,像我一樣。 [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 | 所以,無論誰都不可藐視他,只要送他平安前行,叫他到我這�堥荂A因我指望他和弟兄們同來。 [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 | 至於兄弟亞波羅,我再三地勸他同弟兄們到你們那�堨h;但這時他決不願意去,幾時有了機會他必去。 [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 | 你們務要警醒,在真道上站立得穩,要作大丈夫,要剛強。 [NASB] Be on the alert, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong. |
| 16:14 | 凡你們所做的都要憑愛心而做。 [NASB] Let all that you do be done in love. |
| 16:15 | 弟兄們,你們曉得司提反那一家,是亞該亞初結的果子,並且他們專以服事聖徒為念。 [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 | 我勸你們順服這樣的人,並一切同工同勞的人。 [NASB] that you also be in subjection to such men and to everyone who helps in the work and labors. |
| 16:17 | 司提法那和福徒拿都,並亞該古到我這�堥荂A我很喜歡;因為你們待我有不及之處,他們補上了。 [NASB] I rejoice over the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus, because they have supplied what was lacking on your part. |
| 16:18 | 他們叫我和你們心�堻ㄖ眲﹛C這樣的人,你們務要敬重。 [NASB] For they have refreshed my spirit and yours. Therefore acknowledge such men. |
| 16:19 | 亞細亞的眾教會問你們安。亞居拉和百基拉並在他們家�堛滷郱|,因主多多地問你們安。 [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 | 眾弟兄都問你們安。你們要親嘴問安,彼此務要聖潔。 [NASB] All the brethren greet you. Greet one another with a holy kiss. |
| 16:21 | 我保羅親筆問安。 [NASB] The greeting is in my own hand--Paul. |
| 16:22 | 若有人不愛主,這人可詛可咒。主必要來! [NASB] If anyone does not love the Lord, he is to be accursed. Maranatha. |
| 16:23 | 願主耶穌基督的恩常與你們眾人同在! [NASB] The grace of the Lord Jesus be with you. |
| 16:24 | 我在基督耶穌�堛熒R與你們眾人同在。阿們! [NASB] My love be with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen. |
