16 1 He exhorteth them to help the poor brethren of Jerusalem: 10 Then he commendeth Timothy, 13 and so with a friendly exhortation, 19 and commendations, endeth the Epistle.

Concerning [a]the gathering for the Saints, as I have ordained in the Churches of Galatia, so do ye also.

Every [b]first day of the week, let every one of you put aside by himself, and lay up as God hath [c]prospered him, that then there be no gatherings when I come.

And when I am come, whomsoever ye shall allow by [d]letters, them will I send to bring your liberality unto Jerusalem.
