CHAP. XVI.

1 Hee exhorteth them to relieue the want of the brethren at Ierusalem. 10 Commendeth Timothy, 13 And after friendly admonitions, 16 Shutteth vp his Epistle with diuers salutations.

¹Now concerning the collection for the Saints, as I haue giuen order to the Churches of Galatia, euen so doe ye.

²Upon the first day of the weeke, let euery one of you lay by him in store, as God hath prospered him, that there be no gatherings when I come.

³And when I come, whomsoeuer you shall approue by your letters, them wil I send to bring your liberality vnto Ierusalem.³

⁴And if it be meet that I goe also, they shall goe with me.

⁵Now I wil come vnto you, when I shall passe through Macedonia: for I doe passe through Macedonia.

⁶And it may bee that I will abide, yea, and winter with you, that yee may bring me on my iourny, whithersoeuer I goe.

⁷For I will not see you now by the way, but I trust to tarry a while with you, if the Lord permit.

⁸But I will tarry at Ephesus vntill Pentecost.

⁹For a great doore and effectuall is opened vnto mee, and there are many aduersaries.

¹⁰Now if Timotheus come, see that he may be with you without feare: for hee worketh the worke of the Lord, as I also doe.

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

¹²As touching our brother Apollos, I greatly desired him to come vnto you with þ^e brethren, but his wil was not at all to come at this time: but he wil come when hee shall haue conuenient time.
