1 Corinthians 16:10-18 - News About Timothy, Apollos, And Others

¹⁰ Now if Timothy comes, see that he is with you without fear, for he does the work of the Lord, as I also do. ¹¹ Therefore 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.

¹² Now 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.

¹³ Watch! Stand firm in the faith! Be courageous! Be strong! ¹⁴ Let all that you do be done in love.

¹⁵ Now 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), ¹⁶ that you also be in subjection to such, and to everyone who helps in the work and labors. ¹⁷ I rejoice at the coming of Stephanas, Fortunatus, and Achaicus; for that which was lacking on your part, they supplied. ¹⁸ For they refreshed my spirit and yours. Therefore acknowledge those who are like that.
