1 Corinthians 16:5-12 - Travel Plans For Paul And Associates

⁵ Now I will come to you, when I have passed through Macedonia, for I intend to go through Macedonia; ⁶ and perhaps I may abide with you, or even spend the winter, that you may conduct me on my way to whatever place I may go. ⁷ FOE I do not wish to see you now in passing; for I hope to spend some time with you, if the Lord permit. ⁸ But I will continue in Ephesus till Pentecost: ⁹ for a great and effective door is opened to me, and there are many adversaries. ¹⁰ If Timothy come, see that he be with you without fear: for he works the work of the Lord, as I also do. ¹¹ Therefore, let no one despise him; but conduct him forth in peace, that he may come to me: for I look for him with the brethren.

¹² As it respects Apollos my brother, I urged him much to go to you with the brethren, yet he was not at all inclined to go now; but he will go when he has a suitable time.
