The Gift for Other Believers

16 Now ·I will write about [or concerning your question about; ^Lconcerning; 7:1; 8:1; 12:1] the collection of money for ·God’s people [^Tthe saints; 2 Cor. 8—9; Rom. 15:25–28]. Do the same thing I told the Galatian churches to do [^CGalatia was a Roman province in present-day central Turkey where Paul started churches on his first missionary journey (Acts 13—14)]: ² On the first day of every week [^CSunday], each one of you should put aside money ·as you have been blessed [or what you can afford; ^Lwhatever one prospers]. Save it up so you will not have to collect money after I come.
