1 Korintus 16:10-18
Konteks16:10 Now if Timothy comes, see that he has nothing to fear among you, for he is doing the Lord’s work, as I am too. 16:11 So then, let no one treat him with contempt. But send him on his way in peace so that he may come to me. For I am expecting him with the brothers. 1
16:12 With regard to our brother Apollos: I strongly encouraged him to visit you with the other brothers, 2 but it was simply not his intention to come now. 3 He will come when he has the opportunity.
16:13 Stay alert, stand firm in the faith, show courage, be strong. 16:14 Everything you do should be done in love.
16:15 Now, brothers and sisters, 4 you know about the household of Stephanus, that as the first converts 5 of Achaia, they devoted themselves to ministry for the saints. I urge you 16:16 also to submit to people like this, and to everyone who cooperates in the work and labors hard. 16:17 I was glad about the arrival of Stephanus, Fortunatus, and Achaicus because they have supplied the fellowship with you that I lacked. 6 16:18 For they refreshed my spirit and yours. So then, recognize people like this.

[16:12] 2 tn Grk “with the brothers.”
[16:12] 3 tn Grk “it was simply not the will that he come now.”

[16:15] 5 tn Grk “firstfruits.”
[16:17] 6 tn Or “they have made up for your absence” (BDAG 70 s.v. ἀναπληρόω 3).
