1 Corinthians 16:8-12

8ButG1161 I will stayG1961 inG1722 EphesusG2181 untilG2193 PentecostG4005,1 9becauseG1063 a greatG3173 doorG2374 for effectiveG1756 work has openedG455 to meG1473, even thoughG2532 manyG4183 opposeG480 me.

IfG1437 TimothyG5095 comesG2064, see to itG991 thatG2443 he hasG1096 nothing to fearG870 while he is withG4314 youG4771, forG1063 he is doingG2038 theG3588 workG2041 of the LordG2962, just asG5613 I amG2504. 11NoG3361 oneG5100, thenG3767, should treat him with contemptG1848G846. SendG4311 him on his wayG846 inG1722 peaceG1515 so thatG2443 he can returnG2064 toG4314 meG1473, forG1063 I am expectingG1551 himG846 along withG3326 theG3588 brothersG80.

12NowG1161 aboutG4012 our brotherG80 ApollosG625: I strongly urgedG3870G4183 himG846 toG2443 goG2064 toG4314 youG4771 withG3326 theG3588 brothersG80. He wasG1510 notG3756 at allG3843 inclinedG2307 toG2443 goG2064 nowG3568, butG1161 he will goG2064 whenG3752 he has the opportunityG2119.
