1 Now concerning the collections which are made for the saints: just as I have arranged for the churches of Galatia, so should it also be done with you.
1 CUANTO á la colecta para los santos, haced vosotros también de la manera que ordené en las iglesias de Galacia.
2 On the first day of the week, the Sabbath, let each one of you take from himself, setting aside what will be well-pleasing to him, so that when I arrive, the collections will not have to be made then.
2 Cada primer día de la semana cada uno de vosotros aparte en su casa, guardando lo que por la bondad de Dios pudiere; para que cuando yo llegare, no se hagan entonces colectas.
3 And when I am present, whomever you shall approve through letters, these I shall send to bear your gifts to Jerusalem.
3 Y cuando habré llegado, los que aprobareis por cartas, á éstos enviaré que lleven vuestro beneficio á Jerusalem.
4 And if it is fitting for me to go too, they shall go with me.
4 Y si fuere digno el negocio de que yo también vaya, irán conmigo.
5 Now I will visit you after I have passed through Macedonia. For I will pass through Macedonia.
5 Y á vosotros iré, cuando hubiere pasado por Macedonia, porque por Macedonia tengo de pasar:
6 And perhaps I will stay with you, and even spend the winter, so that you may lead me on my way, whenever I depart.
6 Y podrá ser que me quede con vosotros, ó invernaré también, para que vosotros me llevéis á donde hubiere de ir.
7 For I am not willing to see you now only in passing, since I hope that I may remain with you for some length of time, if the Lord permits.
7 Porque no os quiero ahora ver de paso; porque espero estar con vosotros algún tiempo, si el Señor lo permitiere.
8 But I must remain at Ephesus, even until Pentecost.
8 Empero estaré en Efeso hasta Pentecostés;
9 For a door, great and unavoidable, has opened to me, as well as many adversaries.
9 Porque se me ha abierto puerta grande y eficaz, y muchos son los adversarios.
10 Now if Timothy arrives, see to it that he may be among you without fear. For he is doing the work of the Lord, just as I also do.
10 Y si llegare Timoteo, mirad que esté con vosotros seguramente; porque la obra del Señor hace también como yo.
11 Therefore, let no one despise him. Instead, lead him on his way in peace, so that he may come to me. For I am awaiting him with the brothers.
11 Por tanto, nadie le tenga en poco; antes, llevadlo en paz, para que venga á mí: porque lo espero con los hermanos.
12 But concerning our brother, Apollo, I am letting you know that I pleaded with him greatly to go to you with the brothers, and clearly it was not his will to go at this time. But he will arrive when there is a space of time for him.
12 Acerca del hermano Apolos, mucho le he rogado que fuese á vosotros con los hermanos; mas en ninguna manera tuvo voluntad de ir por ahora; pero irá cuando tuviere oportunidad.
13 Be vigilant. Stand with faith. Act manfully and be strengthened.
13 Velad, estad firmes en la fe; portaos varonilmente, y esforzaos.
14 Let all that is yours be immersed in charity.
14 Todas vuestras cosas sean hechas con caridad.
15 And I beg you, brothers: You know the house of Stephanus, and of Fortunatus, and of Achaicus, that they are the first-fruits of Achaia, and that they have dedicated themselves to the ministry of the saints.
15 Y os ruego, hermanos, (ya sabéis que la casa de Estéfanas es las primicias de Acaya, y que se han dedicado al ministerio de los santos,)
16 So you should be subject also to persons such as this, as well as to all who are cooperating and working with them.
16 Que vosotros os sujetéis á los tales, y á todos los que ayudan y trabajan.
17 Now I rejoice in the presence of Stephanus and Fortunatus and Achaicus, because what was lacking in you, they have supplied.
17 Huélgome de la venida de Estéfanas y de Fortunato y de Achâico: porque éstos suplieron lo que á vosotros faltaba.
18 For they have refreshed my spirit and yours. Therefore, recognize persons such as this.
18 Porque recrearon mi espíritu y el vuestro: reconoced pues á los tales.
19 The churches of Asia greet you. Aquila and Priscilla greet you greatly in the Lord, with the church of their household, where I also am a guest.
19 Las iglesias de Asia os saludan. Os saludan mucho en el Señor Aquila y Priscila, con la iglesia que está en su casa.
20 All the brothers greet you. Greet one another with a holy kiss.
20 Os saludan todos los hermanos. Saludaos los unos á los otros con ósculo santo.
21 This is a greeting from my own hand, Paul.
21 La salutación de mí, Pablo, de mi mano.
22 If anyone does not love our Lord Jesus Christ, let him be anathema! Maran Atha.
22 El que no amare al Señor Jesucristo, sea anatema. Maranatha.
23 May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.
23 La gracia del Señor Jesucristo sea con vosotros.
24 My charity is with all of you in Christ Jesus. Amen.
24 Mi amor en Cristo Jesús sea con todos vosotros. Amén. La primera á los Corintios fué enviada de Filipos con Estéfanas, y Fortunato, y Achâico, y Timoteo.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
Having completed his discourse concerning doctrines, and being about to enter upon that which belongs rather to morals, he dismisses every thing else and proceeds to the chief of good things, discoursing about alms. Nor does he discuss morals in general, but when he hath treated of this matter alone, he leaves off.

Wherefore Paul also said, "Watch ye, stand fast in the faith." After this He points out the thing to be superfluous too, not hurtful only; in that, after the land hath been tilled, and there is no need of anything, then this enemy sows again; as the heretics also do, who for no other cause than vainglory inject their proper …

The kiss therefore is reconciliation, and for this reason holy: as the blessed Paul somewhere cried, saying, Greet ye one another with a holy kiss; and Peter, with a kiss of charity.
