16 1 AND NOW ABOUT the collection in aid of God's people: you should follow my directions to our congregations in Galatia. 16 2 Every Sunday each of you is to put aside and keep by him a sum in proportion to his gains, so that there may be no collecting when I come. 16 3 When I arrive, I will give letters of introduction to persons approved by you, and send them to carry your gift to Jerusalem. 16 4 If it should seem worth while for me to go as well, they shall go with me.
