1 Ref Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I gave order to the churches of Galatia, so also do ye.

4 Ref and if it be meet for me to go also, they shall go with me.
5 Ref But I will come unto you, when I shall have passed through Macedonia; for I pass through Macedonia;
6 Ref but with you it may be that I shall abide, or even winter, that ye may set me forward on my journey whithersoever I go.

9 Ref for a great door and effectual is opened unto me, and there are many adversaries.
10 Ref Now if Timothy come, see that he be with you without fear; for he worketh the work of the Lord, as I also do:

12 Ref But as touching Apollos the brother, I besought him much to come unto you with the brethren: and it was not all `his' will to come now; but he will come when he shall have opportunity.
13 Ref Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong.
14 Ref Let all that ye do be done in love.
15 Ref Now I beseech you, brethren (ye know the house of Stephanas, that it is the firstfruits of Achaia, and that they have set themselves to minister unto the saints),
16 Ref that ye also be in subjection unto such, and to every one that helpeth in the work and laboreth.
17 Ref And I rejoice at the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus: for that which was lacking on your part they supplied.
18 Ref For they refreshed my spirit and yours: acknowledge ye therefore them that are such.
19 Ref The churches of Asia salute you. Aquila and Prisca salute you much in the Lord, with the church that is in their house.
20 Ref All the brethren salute you. Salute one another with a holy kiss.
21 Ref The salutation of me Paul with mine own hand.
22 Ref If any man loveth not the Lord, let him be anathema. Maranatha.
