STUTTGARTENSIA-DELITZSCH	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 וְעַל־דְּבַר קִבּוּץ הַתְּרוּמוֹת לְעֶזְרַת הַקְּדוֹשִׁים כַּאֲשֶׁר תִּקַּנְתִּי לַקְּהִלּוֹת אֲשֶׁר בְּגָלַטְיָא כֵּן תַּעֲשֹוּ גַּם־אַתֶּם	1 Now concerning the collections that are made for the saints, as I have given order to the churches of Galatia, so do ye also.
2 בְּכָל־אֶחָד בַּשַּׁבָּת יַנִּיחַ אֶצְלוֹ אִישׁ אִישׁ מִכֶּם וְיֶאֱצֹר אֶת־אֲשֶׁר עָלָה בְיָדוֹ לְמַעַן אֲשֶׁר בְּבֹאִי לֹא יִקָּבֵץ עוֹד	2 On the first day of the week let every one of you put apart with himself, laying up what it shall well please him; that when I come, the collections be not then to be made.
3 וַאֲנִי בְּבֹאִי אֶת־אֲשֶׁר תִּמְצְאוּ נֶאֱמָנִים עִם־אִגְּרוֹת אֶשְׁלַח אֹתָם לְהָבִיא אֶת־נִדְבַתְכֶם לִירוּשָׁלָיִם	3 And when I shall be with you, whomsoever you shall approve by letters, them will I send to carry your grace to Jerusalem.
4 וְאִם־שֹׁוֶה הַטֹּרַח שֶׁגַּם אָנֹכִי אֵלֵךְ שָׁמָּה אִתִּי יֵלֵכוּ	4 And if it be meet that I also go, they shall go with me.
5 וַאֲנִי אָבֹא אֲלֵיכֶם אַחֲרֵי עָבְרִי אֶת־מַקְדּוֹנְיָא כִּי אֶת־מַקְדּוֹנְיָא אֶעֱבֹרָה	5 Now I will come to you, when I shall have passed through Macedonia. For I shall pass through Macedonia.
6 וְאוּלַי אֵשֵׁב עִמָּכֶם יָמִים אֲחָדִים אוֹ כָּל־יְמֵי הַסְּתָו לְמַעַן תְּלַוֻּנִי אֶל־אֲשֶׁר אֵלֵךְ שָׁמָּה	6 And with you perhaps I shall abide, or even spend the winter: that you may bring me on my way whithersoever I shall go.
7 כִּי כָעֵת אֵין רְצוֹנִי לִרְאֹתְכֶם אַךְ־בְּעָבְרִי כִּי־אֲקַוֶּה לָׁשֶׁבֶת אֶצְלְכֶם זְמַן־מָה אִם־יִרְצֶה יְהוָֹה	7 For I will not see you now by the way, for I trust that I shall abide with you some time, if the Lord permit.
8 אֲבָל אֵשֵׁב בְּאֶפְסוֹס עַד־חַג הַשָּׁבוּעוֹת	8 But I will tarry at Ephesus until Pentecost.
9 כִּי־נִפְתַּח לִי פֶּתַח גָּדוֹל וְרַב־פְּעָלִים וְרַבִּים הַמִּתְקוֹמְמִים	9 For a great door and evident is opened unto me: and many adversaries.
10 וְכִי יָבוֹא אֲלֵיכֶם טִימוֹתִיּוֹס רְאוּ־נָא שֶׁיִּהְיֶה עִמָּכֶם בְּלִי פָחַד כִּי־מְלֶאכֶת יְהוָֹה הוּא עֹשֶׂה כְּמוֹ גַם־אָנִי	10 Now if Timothy come, see that he be with you without fear, for he worketh the work of the Lord, as I also do.
11 עַל־כֵּן אִישׁ אַל־יִבֶז אֹתוֹ אַךְ שַׁלְּחֻהוּ בְשָׁלוֹם לְמַעַן יָבֹא אֵלָי כִּי אֲחַכֶּה־לּוֹ עִם־הָאַחִים	11 Let no man therefore despise him, but conduct ye him on his way in peace: that he may come to me. For I look for him with the breatheren.
12 וְאַפּוֹלוֹס הָאָח הִנֵּה הִפְצַרְתִּי־בוֹ לָבוֹא אֲלֵיכֶם עִם־הָאַחִים אַךְ לֹא־הָיָה בִרְצוֹנוֹ לָבוֹא עַתָּה אָמְנָם בּוֹא יָבוֹא בְּמָצְאוֹ עֵת נְכוֹנָה	12 And touching our brother Apollo, I give you to understand, that I much entreated him to come unto you with the breatheren: and indeed it was not his will at all to come at this time. But he will come when he shall have leisure.
13 שִׁקְדוּ וְעִמְדוּ בָאֱמוּנָה הִתְאשְׁשׁוּ וְהִתְחַזָּקוּ	13 Watch ye, stand fast in the faith,do manfully, and be strengthened.
14 וְכָל־דִּבְרֵיכֶם יֵעָשֹוּ בְאַהֲבָה	14 Let all your things be done in charity.
15 וַאֲבַקְשָׁה מִכֶּם אַחַי הֲלֹא יְדַעְתֶּם אֶת־בֵּית אִסְטְפָנוֹס שֶׁהוּא רֵאשִׁית אֲכַיָּא וַיִּתְּנוּ אֶת־נַפְשָׁם לְשֵׁרוּת הַקְּדשִׁים	15 And I beseech you, brethren, you know the house of Stephanas, and of Fortunatus, and of Achaicus, that they are the firstfruits of Achaia, and have dedicated themselves to the ministry of the saints:
16 לָכֵן הִכָּנְעוּ גַם־אַתֶּם מִפְּנֵי אֲנָשִׁים כָּאֵלֶּה וּמִפְּנֵי־כֹל אֲשֶׁר־יַעֲבֹד עִמָּהֶם וְיַעֲמֹל	16 That you also be subject to such, and to every one that worketh with us, and laboureth.
17 וְהִנְנִי שָׂמֵחַ בְּבִיאַת אִסְטְפָנוֹס וּפָרְטוּנָטוֹס וַאֲכַיְקוֹס כִּי הֵמָּה מִלְּאוּ אֶת־אֲשֶׁר חָסַרְתִּי אֶתְכֶם	17 And I rejoice in the presence of Stephanas, and Fortunatus, and Achaicus, because that which was wanting on your part, they have supplied.
18 וַיָּנִיחוּ אֶת־רוּחִי וְאֶת־רוּחֲכֶם עַל־כֵּן הוֹקִירוּ אֲנָשִׁים כָּאֵלֶּה	18 For they have refreshed both my spirit and yours. Know them, therefore, that are such.
19 הַקְּהִלּוֹת אֲשֶׁר בְּאַסְיָא שֹׁאֲלוֹת לִשְׁלוֹמְכֶם עֲקִילַס וּפְרִיסְקִילָה וְגַם־הַקְּהִלָּה אֲשֶׁר בְּבֵיתָם מַרְבִּים לִשְׁאֹל לִשְׁלוֹמְכֶם בַּאֲדֹנֵינוּ	19 The churches of Asia salute you. Aquila and Priscilla salute you much in the Lord, with the church that is in their house, with whom I also lodge.
20 הָאַחִים כֻּלָּם שֹׁאֲלִים לִשְׁלוֹמְכֶם שַׁאֲלוּ לְשָׁלוֹם אִישׁ אֶת־רֵעֵהוּ בַּנְּשִׁיקָה הַקְּדוֹשָׁה	20 All the brethren salute you. Salute one another with a holy kiss.
21 שְׁאֵלַת שְׁלוֹמְכֶם בְּיָדִי אָנִי פוֹלוֹס	21 The salutation of me Paul, with my own hand.
22 מִי שֶׁלֹּא יֶאֱהַב אֶת־הָאָדוֹן יֵשׁוּעַ הַמָּשִׁיחַ יָחֳרָם מָרַן אֲתָא	22 If any man love not our Lord Jesus Christ, let him be anathema, maranatha.
23 חֶסֶד יֵשׁוּעַ הַמָּשִׁיחַ אֲדֹנֵינוּ יְהִי עִמָּכֶם	23 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
24 וְאַהֲבָתִי אֶת־כֻּלְּכֶם בַּמָּשִׁיחַ יֵשׁוּעַ אָמֵן	24 My charity be with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.
