1 Corinthians 16:1–4

The Collection for the Lord’s People

16 Now about the collections for the Lord’s people:t Do what I told the Galatianu churches to do. 2 On the first day of every week,v each one of you should set aside a sum of money in keeping with your income, saving it up, so that when I come no collections will have to be made.w 3 Then, when I arrive, I will give letters of introduction to the men you approvex and send them with your gift to Jerusalem. 4 If it seems advisable for me to go also, they will accompany me.
