I Corinthians 16 Comparison: Noyes Translation (1869) vs King James Version

I Corinthians 16

¹Now concerning the collection for the saints, according to the directions which I gave to the churches of Galatia, so also do ye.

²Every first day of the week let each of you lay by him something in store, according as he hath prospered; that the collections may not have to be made when I come.

³And when I am with you, I will send with letters whomever you may approve to carry your bounty to Jerusalem;

⁴and if it be worth while for me to go also, they shall go with me.

⁵Now I will come to you, when I have passed through Macedonia; for I am about to pass through Macedonia;

⁶and perhaps I may remain, or even spend the winter with you, that ye may set me forward on my journey whithersoever I may be going.

⁷For I am unwilling to see you now in passing; for I hope to stay some time with you if the Lord permit.

⁸But I shall remain at Ephesus until the Pentecost;

⁹for a door hath been opened to me great and effective, and there are many adversaries.

¹⁰Now if Timothy come, see that he be with you without fear; for he is laboring in the work of the Lord, as I am;

¹¹let no one therefore despise him. But conduct him on in peace, that he may come to me; for I am waiting for him with the brethren.

¹²As regards Apollos, the brother, I urged him much to come to you with the brethren; and it was not at all his will to come at this time; but he will come when he hath a convenient opportunity.

¹³Watch, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong;

¹⁴let all your doings be in love.

¹⁵And I exhort you, brethren,—ye know the family of Stephanas, that they are the first-fruits of Achaia, and that they have devoted themselves to the service of the holy,—

¹⁶that ye submit yourselves to such as they are, and to every one that worketh with us, and laboreth.

¹⁷I am glad of the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus; for what was lacking on your part, they supplied;

¹⁸for they refreshed my spirit and yours. Pay regard then to those that are such.

¹⁹The churches of Asia salute you. Aquila and Prisca, with the church that is in their house, send you many salutations in the Lord.

²⁰All the brethren salute you. Salute one another with a holy kiss.

²¹The salutation of me, Paul, with my own hand.

²²If any one loveth not the Lord, let him be accursed! The Lord is at hand.

²³The grace of the Lord Jesus be with you.

²⁴My love is with you all in Christ Jesus.

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.
