1 Corinthians 16

5 j I will visit you after passing through k Macedonia, for l I intend to pass through Macedonia, 6 and perhaps I will stay with you or even spend the winter, so that you may m help me on my journey, wherever I go. 7 For I do not want to see you now n just in passing. I hope to spend some time with you, o if the Lord permits. 8 But I will stay in Ephesus until p Pentecost, 9 for q a wide door for effective work has opened to me, and r there are many adversaries.

10 s When Timothy comes, see that you put him at ease among you, for t he is doing u the work of the Lord, as I am. 11 So v let no one despise him. w Help him on his way x in peace, that he may return to me, for I am expecting him with the brothers.
