¹Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I commanded the assemblies of Galatia, you do likewise.

¹¶ Na mo te kohikohi mo te hunga tapu, peratia me taku i whakarite ai ki nga hahi o Karatia.

²On the first day of the week, let each one of you save, as he may prosper, that no collections be made when I come.

²Hei te ra tuatahi o te wiki ka whakatakoto ia tangata, ia tangata o koutou ki te taha tohu ai, kei te ahua o te manaakitanga i a ia, kei waiho nga kohikohi mo te wa e tae atu ai ahau.

³When I arrive, I will send whoever you approve with letters to carry your gracious gift to Jerusalem.

³A ka tae atu ahau, maku e tono te hunga e whakapaingia ana e a koutou pukapuka hei mau i ta koutou aroha noa ki Hiruharama.

⁴If it is appropriate for me to go also, they will go with me.

⁴A ki te tika kia haere atu ano hoki ahau, ko matou tahi e haere.

⁵But I will come to you when I have passed through Macedonia, for I am passing through Macedonia.

⁵¶ Na ka haere atu ahau ki a koutou, ina tika ahau ra Makeronia: e tika ana hoki ahau ra Makeronia.

⁶But with you it may be that I will stay, or even winter, that you may send me on my journey wherever I go.

⁶A tera pea ahau e noho roa ki a koutou, taka noa pea te hotoke, kia ai koutou hei arahi i ahau ki te wahi e haere atu ai ahau.

⁷For I do not wish to see you now in passing, but I hope to stay a while with you, if the Lord permits.

⁷E kore hoki ahau e pai kia titiro haere noa ahau i a koutou aianei; e tumanako ana hoki ahau kia whakatau iho ahau ki a koutou, ki te tukua e te Ariki.

⁸But I will stay at Ephesus until Pentecost,

⁸Engari ka noho ahau ki Epeha taea noatia te Petekoha;

⁹for a great and effective door has opened to me, and there are many adversaries.

⁹Kua tuwhera mai nei he kuwaha rahi ki ahau, he mahi nui, a tera ano te tokomaha o te hunga tautohe.

¹⁰Now if Timothy comes, see that he is with you without fear, for he does the work of the Lord, as I also do.

¹⁰¶ Na, ki te tae atu a Timoti, meinga kia kaua ia e noho wehi i roto i a koutou: e mahi ana hoki ia i te mahi a te Ariki, e penei ana me ahau nei:

¹¹Therefore let no one despise him. But set him forward on his journey in peace, that he may come to me; for I expect him with the brothers.

¹¹Na reira kei whakahawea tetahi ki a ia; engari ata arahina ia i runga i te rangimarie, kia haere mai ai ki ahau: e tatari ana hoki ahau ki a ia, ratou ko nga teina.

¹²Now concerning Apollos, the brother, I strongly urged him to come to you with the brothers; and it was not at all his desire to come now; but he will come when he has an opportunity.

¹²Na, ko to tatou teina, ko Aporo, nui atu taku tohe ki a ia kia haere atu ratou ko nga teina ki a koutou: otira kihai rawa ia i pai kia haere atu i tenei wa: otira mana e haere atu a te wa e watea ai.

¹³Watch! Stand firm in the faith! Be courageous! Be strong!

¹³¶ Kia mataara, e tu i runga i te whakapono, whakatane, kia kaha.

¹⁴Let all that you do be done in love.

¹⁴Kia meatia a koutou mea katoa i runga i te aroha.

¹⁵Now I beg you, brothers (you know the house of Stephanas, that it is the first fruits of Achaia, and that they have set themselves to serve the saints),

¹⁵He tohe tenei naku ki a koutou, e oku teina; e mohio ana koutou ki nga tangata o te whare o Tepana, ko te matamua tera o Akaia, kua tuku ano i a ratou hei kaimahi mo te hunga tapu;

¹⁶that you also be in subjection to such, and to everyone who helps in the work and labors.

¹⁶Kia ngohengohe hoki koutou ki nga tangata pera, ki te hunga katoa ano e mahi tahi ana, e uaua ana.

¹⁷I rejoice at the coming of Stephanas, Fortunatus, and Achaicus; for that which was lacking on your part, they supplied.

¹⁷Hari tonu hoki ahau ki te haerenga mai o Tepana, ratou ko Porotunatu, ko Akaiku: na ratou hoki i rite ai nga mea i kore i a koutou.

¹⁸For they refreshed my spirit and yours. Therefore acknowledge those who are like that.

¹⁸I ora hoki i a ratou toku wairua, o koutou hoki: na kia mohio koutou ki te hunga pera.

¹⁹The assemblies of Asia greet you. Aquila and Priscilla greet you much in the Lord, together with the assembly that is in their house.

¹⁹¶ Tenei nga hahi o Ahia te oha atu nei ki a koutou. He maha hoki nga mihi atu a Akuira raua ko Pirihiria i roto i te Ariki, a te hahi hoki i to raua whare.

²⁰All the brothers greet you. Greet one another with a holy kiss.

²⁰Tenei nga teina katoa te oha atu nei ki a koutou. Oha atu ki a koutou ano, kei te kihi tapu.

²¹This greeting is by me, Paul, with my own hand.

²¹Ko te oha tenei aku, a Paora, he mea na toku ringa ake.

²²If any man doesn’t love the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be accursed Greek: anathema. . Come, Lord! Aramaic: Maranatha!

²²Ki te kore tetahi e aroha ki te Ariki, kia waiho ia hei Anatema Maranata.

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

²³Kia tau te aroha noa o te Ariki, o Ihu Karaiti, ki a koutou.

²⁴My love to all of you in Christ Jesus. Amen.

²⁴Hei a koutou katoa toku aroha i roto i a Karaiti Ihu. Amine.
