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

⁵ But I will come to you when I pass through Macedonia; for I am going through Macedonia. ⁶ And it may be that I will stay with you, and even spend the winter with you, so that you may set me forward wherever I go. ⁷ For I do not desire to see you now in passage, but I am hoping to stay some time with you, if the Lord permits. ⁸ But I will stay in Ephesus until Pentecost. ⁹ For a great and effective door opened to me, and many are opposing. ¹⁰ But if Timothy comes, see that he is with you without fear, for he works the work of the Lord, even as I do. ¹¹ Therefore let not any despise him, but set him forward in peace, so that he may come to me; for I am waiting for him with the brothers.

¹² As regards our brother Apollos, I greatly desired him to come to you with the brothers, but it was not altogether his will that he come now. But he will come when he has opportunity.
