I Corinthians 16 Comparison: Douay-Rheims vs King James Version
I Corinthians 16
1Now concerning the collections that are made for the saints: as I have given order to the churches of Galatia, so do ye also.
2On the first day of the week, let every one of you put apart with himself, laying up what it shall well please him: that when I come, the collections be not then to be made.
3And when I shall be with you, whomsoever you shall approve by letters, them will I send to carry your grace to Jerusalem.
4And if it be meet that I also go, they shall go with me.
5Now I will come to you, when I shall have passed through Macedonia. For I shall pass through Macedonia.
6And with you perhaps I shall abide, or even spend the winter: that you may bring me on my way whithersoever I shall go.
7For I will not see you now by the way: for I trust that I shall abide with you some time, if the Lord permit.
8But I will tarry at Ephesus, until Pentecost.
9For a great door and evident is opened unto me: and many adversaries.
10Now if Timothy come, see that he be with you without fear: for he worketh the work of the Lord, as I also do.
11Let no man therefore despise him: but conduct ye him on his way in peace, that he may come to me. For I look for him with the brethren.
12And touching our brother Apollo, I give you to understand that I much entreated him to come unto you with the brethren: and indeed it was not his will at all to come at this time. But he will come when he shall have leisure.
13Watch ye: stand fast in the faith: do manfully and be strengthened.
14Let all your things be done in charity.
15And I beseech you, brethren, you know the house of Stephanus, and of Fortunatus, and of Achaicus, that they are the firstfruits of Achaia, and have dedicated themselves to the ministry of the saints:
16That you also be subject to such and to every one that worketh with us and laboureth.
17And I rejoice in the presence of Stephanus and Fortunatus and Achaicus: because that which was wanting on your part, they have supplied.
18For they have refreshed both my spirit and yours. Know them, therefore, that are such.
19The churches of Asia salute you. Aquila and Priscilla salute you much in the Lord, with the church that is in their house, with whom I also lodge.
20All the brethren salute you. Salute one another with a holy kiss.
21The salutation of me Paul, with my own hand.
22If any man love not our Lord Jesus Christ, let him be anathema, maranatha.
23The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
24My charity be with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.
I Corinthians 16
1Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I have given order to the churches of Galatia, even so do ye.
2Upon the first day of the week let every 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, whomsoever ye shall approve by your letters, them will I send to bring your liberality unto Jerusalem.
4And if it be meet that I go also, they shall go with me.
5Now I will come unto you, when I shall pass through Macedonia: for I do pass through Macedonia.
6And it may be that I will abide, yea, and winter with you, that ye may bring me on my journey whithersoever I go.
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 until Pentecost.
9For a great door and effectual is opened unto me, and there are many adversaries.
10Now if Timotheus come, see that he may be with you without fear: for he worketh the work of the Lord, as I also do.
11Let no man therefore despise him: but conduct him forth in peace, that he may come unto me: for I look for him with the brethren.
12As touching our brother Apollos, I greatly desired him to come unto you with the brethren: but his will was not at all to come at this time; but he will come when he shall have convenient time.
13Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong.
14Let all your things be done with charity.
15I beseech you, brethren, (ye know the house of Stephanas, that it is the firstfruits of Achaia, and that they have addicted themselves to the ministry of the saints,)
16That ye submit yourselves unto such, and to every one that helpeth with us, and laboureth.
17I am glad of the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus: for that which was lacking on your part they have supplied.
18For they have refreshed my spirit and yours: therefore acknowledge ye them that are such.
19The churches of Asia salute you. Aquila and Priscilla salute you much in the Lord, with the church that is in their house.
20All the brethren greet you. Greet ye one another with an holy kiss.
21The salutation of me Paul with mine own hand.
22If any man love not the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be Anathema Maran-atha.
23The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
24My love be with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen. The first epistle to the Corinthians was written from Philippi by Stephanas, and Fortunatus, and Achaicus, and Timotheus.
