1 Now concerning the collections which are made for the saints: just as I have arranged for the churches of Galatia, so should it also be done with you.
2 On the first day of the week, the Sabbath, let each one of you take from himself, setting aside what will be well-pleasing to him, so that when I arrive, the collections will not have to be made then.
3 And when I am present, whomever you shall approve through letters, these I shall send to bear your gifts to Jerusalem.
4 And if it is fitting for me to go too, they shall go with me.
5 Now I will visit you after I have passed through Macedonia. For I will pass through Macedonia.
6 And perhaps I will stay with you, and even spend the winter, so that you may lead me on my way, whenever I depart.
