5 Now I will come unto you, when I have passed through Macedonia, for I must pass through Macedonia. 6 And it may be that I will abide and winter with you, that ye may bring me on my journey wherever I go. 7 For I desire not to see you now in passing, but I trust to tarry a while with you, if the Lord permits. 8 But I will tarry at Ephesus until Pentecost. 9 For a great and effectual door is opened unto me, and there are many adversaries.
10 Now if Timothy comes, see that he may stay with you securely, for he does the work of the Lord, as I also do. 11 Let no man therefore, despise, him, but conduct him forth in peace that he may come unto me, for I look for him with the brothers.
