¹Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I directed the assemblies of Galatia, so do *ye* do also.

¹[Ny amin'ny famoriam-bola ho an'ny olona malahelo tany Jerosalema. Teny farany sy fanaovam-beloma] Ary ny amin'ny famoriam-bola ho an'ny olona masina, dia mba manaova koa ianareo toy izay nasaiko nataon'ny fiangonana any Galatia.

²On [the] first of [the] week let each of you put by at home, laying up [in] whatever [degree] he may have prospered, that there may be no collections when I come.

²Amin'ny andro voalohany isan-kerinandro dia samia manokana ao aminy avy ho rakitra na amin'inona na amin'inona no anambinana azy, mba ho vita rahateo ny famoriam-bola mandra-pahatongako.

³And when I am arrived, whomsoever ye shall approve, these I will send with letters to carry your bounty to Jerusalem:

³Ary rehefa tonga aho, dia izay sitrakareo no hirahiko hitondra taratasy hanatitra ny fiantranareo ho any Jerosalema.

⁴and if it be suitable that *I* also should go, they shall go with me.

⁴Ary raha tokony handehanako izany, dia hiaraka amiko ireo.

⁵But I will come to you when I shall have gone through Macedonia; for I do go through Macedonia.

⁵Hankatỳ aminareo aho, rehefa namaky an'i Makedonia - fa hamaky an'i Makedonia aho -

⁶But perhaps I will stay with you, or even winter with you, that *ye* may set me forward wheresoever I may go.

⁶ary angamba hitoetra eo aminareo aho, na handany ny ririnina aza, mba hanateranareo ahy amin'izay halehako.

⁷For I will not see you now in passing, for I hope to remain a certain time with you, if the Lord permit.

⁷Fa tsy mikasa hamangy anareo toy ny mandalo aho ankehitriny; fa manantena hitoetra elaela eo aminareo aho, raha sitrapon'ny Tompo.

⁸But I remain in Ephesus until Pentecost.

⁸Nefa hitoetra any Efesosy aho mandra-pihavin'ny Pentekosta;

⁹For a great door is opened to me and an effectual [one], and [the] adversaries many.

⁹fa varavarana lehibe no voavoha ho ahy hahazoako miasa tsara, nefa maro ny mpanohitra.

¹⁰Now if Timotheus come, see that he may be with you without fear; for he works the work of the Lord, even as I.

¹⁰Ary rehefa tonga Timoty, dia tandremo mba tsy hanan-tahotra eo aminareo izy; fa ny asan'ny Tompo no ataony, tahaka ny ataoko koa.

¹¹Let not therefore any one despise him; but set him forward in peace, that he may come to me; for I expect him with the brethren.

¹¹Koa aza avela hisy olona hanao tsinontsinona azy; fa atero soa aman-tsara izy mba ho tonga atỳ amiko; fa miandry azy mbamin'ny rahalahy sasany aho.

¹²Now concerning the brother Apollos, I begged him much that he would go to you with the brethren; but it was not at all [his] will to go now; but he will come when he shall have good opportunity.

¹²Ary ny amin'i Apolosy rahalahy, dia nangataka azy fatratra aho hiara-mandeha amin'ny rahalahy hankatỳ aminareo, saingy tsy sitrapony akory ny handeha tamin'izany; nefa ho avy ihany izy, rehefa misy andro mahalalaka azy. [ Na: saingy tsy sitrapon'Andriamanitra ny handehanany ankehitriny]

¹³Be vigilant; stand fast in the faith; quit yourselves like men; be strong.

¹³Miambena ianareo, tomoera tsara amin'ny finoana, aoka hitombandahy, mahereza. [ Gr. miareta tory]

¹⁴Let all things ye do be done in love.

¹⁴Izay rehetra ataonareo dia ataovy amin'ny fitiavana.

¹⁵But I beseech you, brethren, (ye know the house of Stephanas, that it is the first-fruits of Achaia, and they have devoted themselves to the saints for service,)

¹⁵Fantatrareo ny ankohonan'i Stefanasy, fa voaloham-bokatr'i Akaia izy sady efa nanolo-tena ho amin'ny fanompoana ny olona masina; dia mangataka aminareo aho, ry rahalahy,

¹⁶that *ye* should also be subject to such, and to every one joined in the work and labouring.

¹⁶mba hanaiky tsara ny olona tahaka ireny sy izay rehetra miara-miasa sy mikely aina koa ianareo.

¹⁷But I rejoice in the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus; because *they* have supplied what was lacking on your part.

¹⁷Faly aho noho ny fihavian'i Stefanasy sy Fortonato ary Akaiko; fa ireo no nahefa ny tsy vitanareo;

¹⁸For they have refreshed my spirit and yours: own therefore such.

¹⁸fa namelombelona ny fanahiko sy ny anareo koa izy; ka mba ekeo ny tahaka ireny.

¹⁹The assemblies of Asia salute you. Aquila and Priscilla, with the assembly in their house, salute you much in [the] Lord.

¹⁹Manao veloma anareo ny fiangonana atỳ Asia. Manao veloma anareo indrindra ao amin'ny tompo Akoila sy Prisila mbamin'ny fiangonana izay ao an-tranony.

²⁰All the brethren salute you. Salute one another with a holy kiss.

²⁰Manao veloma anareo ny rahalahy rehetra. Mifanaova veloma amin'ny fanorohana masina.

²¹The salutation of [me] Paul with my own hand.

²¹Ny tanako, izaho Paoly, no anaovako veloma.

²²If any one love not the Lord [Jesus Christ] let him be Anathema Maranatha.

²²Raha misy tsy tia ny Tompo, aoka ho voaozona izy. Maran ata. [ Gr. anatema] [ Maran ata = Avy ny Tompontsika (?)]

²³The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ [be] with you.

²³Ho aminareo anie ny fahasoavan'i Jesosy Kristy Tompo;ny fitiavako dia ao aminareo rehetra ao amin'i Kristy Jesosy. Amena.

²⁴My love [be] with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.

²⁴ny fitiavako dia ao aminareo rehetra ao amin'i Kristy Jesosy. Amena.
