1 Corinthians 16

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition	Miqra 'al pi ha-Mesorah
1 Now concerning the contribution for the saints: as I directed the churches of Galatia, so you also are to do.	1 וְעַל־דְּבַר קִבּוּץ הַתְּרוּמוֹת לְעֶזְרַת הַקְּדוֹשִׁים כַּאֲשֶׁר תִּקַּנְתִּי לַקְּהִלּוֹת אֲשֶׁר בְּגָלַטְיָא כֵּן תַּעֲשֹוּ גַּם־אַתֶּם
2 On the first day of every week, each of you is to put something aside and store it up, as he may prosper, so that contributions need not be made when I come.	2 בְּכָל־אֶחָד בַּשַּׁבָּת יַנִּיחַ אֶצְלוֹ אִישׁ אִישׁ מִכֶּם וְיֶאֱצֹר אֶת־אֲשֶׁר עָלָה בְיָדוֹ לְמַעַן אֲשֶׁר בְּבֹאִי לֹא יִקָּבֵץ עוֹד
3 And when I arrive, I will send those whom you accredit by letter to carry your gift to Jerusalem.	3 וַאֲנִי בְּבֹאִי אֶת־אֲשֶׁר תִּמְצְאוּ נֶאֱמָנִים עִם־אִגְּרוֹת אֶשְׁלַח אֹתָם לְהָבִיא אֶת־נִדְבַתְכֶם לִירוּשָׁלָיִם
4 If it seems advisable that I should go also, they will accompany me.	4 וְאִם־שֹׁוֶה הַטֹּרַח שֶׁגַּם אָנֹכִי אֵלֵךְ שָׁמָּה אִתִּי יֵלֵכוּ
5 I will visit you after passing through Macedonia, for I intend to pass through Macedonia,	5 וַאֲנִי אָבֹא אֲלֵיכֶם אַחֲרֵי עָבְרִי אֶת־מַקְדּוֹנְיָא כִּי אֶת־מַקְדּוֹנְיָא אֶעֱבֹרָה
6 and perhaps I will stay with you or even spend the winter, so that you may speed me on my journey, wherever I go.	6 וְאוּלַי אֵשֵׁב עִמָּכֶם יָמִים אֲחָדִים אוֹ כָּל־יְמֵי הַסְּתָו לְמַעַן תְּלַוֻּנִי אֶל־אֲשֶׁר אֵלֵךְ שָׁמָּה
7 For I do not want to see you now just in passing; I hope to spend some time with you, if the Lord permits.	7 כִּי כָעֵת אֵין רְצוֹנִי לִרְאֹתְכֶם אַךְ־בְּעָבְרִי כִּי־אֲקַוֶּה לָׁשֶׁבֶת אֶצְלְכֶם זְמַן־מָה אִם־יִרְצֶה יְהוָֹה
8 But I will stay in Ephesus until Pentecost,	8 אֲבָל אֵשֵׁב בְּאֶפְסוֹס עַד־חַג הַשָּׁבוּעוֹת
9 for a wide door for effective work has opened to me, and there are many adversaries.	9 כִּי־נִפְתַּח לִי פֶּתַח גָּדוֹל וְרַב־פְּעָלִים וְרַבִּים הַמִּתְקוֹמְמִים
10 When Timothy comes, see that you put him at ease among you, for he is doing the work of the Lord, as I am.	10 וְכִי יָבוֹא אֲלֵיכֶם טִימוֹתִיּוֹס רְאוּ־נָא שֶׁיִּהְיֶה עִמָּכֶם בְּלִי פָחַד כִּי־מְלֶאכֶת יְהוָֹה הוּא עֹשֶׂה כְּמוֹ גַם־אָנִי
11 So let no one despise him. Speed him on his way in peace, that he may return to me; for I am expecting him with the brethren.	11 עַל־כֵּן אִישׁ אַל־יִבֶז אֹתוֹ אַךְ שַׁלְּחֻהוּ בְשָׁלוֹם לְמַעַן יָבֹא אֵלָי כִּי אֲחַכֶּה־לּוֹ עִם־הָאַחִים
12 As for our brother Apollos, I strongly urged him to visit you with the other brethren, but it was not at all his will to come now. He will come when he has opportunity.	12 וְאַפּוֹלוֹס הָאָח הִנֵּה הִפְצַרְתִּי־בוֹ לָבוֹא אֲלֵיכֶם עִם־הָאַחִים אַךְ לֹא־הָיָה בִרְצוֹנוֹ לָבוֹא עַתָּה אָמְנָם בּוֹא יָבוֹא בְּמָצְאוֹ עֵת נְכוֹנָה
13 Be watchful, stand firm in your faith, be courageous, be strong.	13 שִׁקְדוּ וְעִמְדוּ בָאֱמוּנָה הִתְאשְׁשׁוּ וְהִתְחַזָּקוּ
14 Let all that you do be done in love.	14 וְכָל־דִּבְרֵיכֶם יֵעָשֹוּ בְאַהֲבָה
15 Now, brethren, you know that the household of Stephanas were the first converts in Achaia, and they have devoted themselves to the service of the saints;	15 וַאֲבַקְשָׁה מִכֶּם אַחַי הֲלֹא יְדַעְתֶּם אֶת־בֵּית אִסְטְפָנוֹס שֶׁהוּא רֵאשִׁית אֲכַיָּא וַיִּתְּנוּ אֶת־נַפְשָׁם לְשֵׁרוּת הַקְּדשִׁים
16 I urge you to be subject to such men and to every fellow worker and laborer.	16 לָכֵן הִכָּנְעוּ גַם־אַתֶּם מִפְּנֵי אֲנָשִׁים כָּאֵלֶּה וּמִפְּנֵי־כֹל אֲשֶׁר־יַעֲבֹד עִמָּהֶם וְיַעֲמֹל
17 I rejoice at the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus, because they have made up for your absence;	17 וְהִנְנִי שָׂמֵחַ בְּבִיאַת אִסְטְפָנוֹס וּפָרְטוּנָטוֹס וַאֲכַיְקוֹס כִּי הֵמָּה מִלְּאוּ אֶת־אֲשֶׁר חָסַרְתִּי אֶתְכֶם
18 for they refreshed my spirit as well as yours. Give recognition to such men.	18 וַיָּנִיחוּ אֶת־רוּחִי וְאֶת־רוּחֲכֶם עַל־כֵּן הוֹקִירוּ אֲנָשִׁים כָּאֵלֶּה
19 The churches of Asia send greetings. Aquila and Prisca, together with the church in their house, send you hearty greetings in the Lord.	19 הַקְּהִלּוֹת אֲשֶׁר בְּאַסְיָא שֹׁאֲלוֹת לִשְׁלוֹמְכֶם עֲקִילַס וּפְרִיסְקִילָה וְגַם־הַקְּהִלָּה אֲשֶׁר בְּבֵיתָם מַרְבִּים לִשְׁאֹל לִשְׁלוֹמְכֶם בַּאֲדֹנֵינוּ
20 All the brethren send greetings. Greet one another with a holy kiss.	20 הָאַחִים כֻּלָּם שֹׁאֲלִים לִשְׁלוֹמְכֶם שַׁאֲלוּ לְשָׁלוֹם אִישׁ אֶת־רֵעֵהוּ בַּנְּשִׁיקָה הַקְּדוֹשָׁה
21 I, Paul, write this greeting with my own hand.	21 שְׁאֵלַת שְׁלוֹמְכֶם בְּיָדִי אָנִי פוֹלוֹס
22 If any one has no love for the Lord, let him be accursed. Our Lord, come!	22 מִי שֶׁלֹּא יֶאֱהַב אֶת־הָאָדוֹן יֵשׁוּעַ הַמָּשִׁיחַ יָחֳרָם מָרַן אֲתָא
23 The grace of the Lord Jesus be with you.	23 חֶסֶד יֵשׁוּעַ הַמָּשִׁיחַ אֲדֹנֵינוּ יְהִי עִמָּכֶם
24 My love be with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.	24 וְאַהֲבָתִי אֶת־כֻּלְּכֶם בַּמָּשִׁיחַ יֵשׁוּעַ אָמֵן
