(2 Corinthians 9:1–15)
1
Concerning the gathering for the Saintes, as I haue ordeined in the Churches of Galatia, so doe ye also.
2
Euery first day of the weeke, let euery one of you put aside by himselfe, and lay vp as God hath prospered him, that then there be no gatherings when I come.
3
And when I am come, whomsoeuer ye shall alowe by letters, them will I send to bring your liberalitie vnto Hierusalem.
4
And if it be meete that I goe also, they shall goe with me.

(Romans 15:23–33)
5
Nowe I will come vnto you, after I haue gone through Macedonia (for I will passe through Macedonia.)
6
And it may be that I will abide, yea, or winter with you, that ye may bring me on my way, whither soeuer I goe.
7
For I will not see you nowe in my passage, but I trust to abide a while with you, if the Lord permit.

Timothy and Apollos

(Philippians 2:19–30)
10
Nowe if Timotheus come, see that he be without feare with you: for he worketh the worke of the Lord, euen as I doe.
11
Let no man therefore despise him: but conuey him foorth in peace, that he may come vnto me: for I looke for him with the brethren.
12
As touching our brother Apollos, I greatly desired him, to come vnto you with the brethren: but his mind was not at all to come at this time: howbeit he will come when he shall haue conuenient time.

Concluding Exhortations

Watch ye: stand fast in the faith: quite you like men, and be strong.

Let all your things be done in loue.
15
Nowe brethren, I beseeche you (ye knowe the house of Stephanas, that it is the first fruites of Achaia, and that they haue giuen themselues to minister vnto the Saintes)
16
That ye be obedient euen vnto such, and to all that helpe with vs and labour.
17
I am glad of the comming of Stephanas, and Fortunatus, and Achaicus: for they haue supplied the want of you.
18
For they haue comforted my spirite and yours: acknowledge therefore such men.

Now concerning the collection for the saints: as I commanded the assemblies of Galatia, you do likewise.
2
On the first day of every week, let each one of you save as he may prosper, that no collections are made when I come.

Paul’s Travel Plans

(Romans 15:23–33)
5
I will come to you when I have passed through Macedonia, for I am passing through Macedonia.
6
But with you it may be that I will stay with you, or even winter with you, that you may send me on my journey wherever I go.
7
For I do not wish to see you now in passing, but I hope to stay a while with you, if the Lord permits.

10
Now if Timothy comes, see that he is with you without fear, for he does the work of the Lord, as I also do.

Therefore let no one despise him. But set him forward on his journey in peace, that he may come to me; for I expect him with the brothers.
12
Now concerning Apollos the brother, I strongly urged him to come to you with the brothers, but it was not at all his desire to come now; but he will come when he has an opportunity.

Watch! Stand firm in the faith! Be courageous! Be strong!

Let all that you do be done in love.

Now I beg you, brothers—you know the house of Stephanas, that it is the first fruits of Achaia, and that they have set themselves to serve the saints—
16
that you also be in subjection to such, and to everyone who helps in the work and labors.
17
I rejoice at the coming of Stephanas, Fortunatus, and Achaicus; for that which was lacking on your part, they supplied.

For they refreshed my spirit and yours. Therefore acknowledge those who are like that.
