1 Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I directed the assemblies of Galatia, so do ye do also.
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 of [the] week let each of you put by at home, laying up [in] whatever [degree] he may have prospered, that there may be no collections when I come.
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 arrived, whomsoever ye shall approve, these I will send with letters to carry your bounty 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 be suitable that I also should go, they shall go with me.
4 Y si fuere digno el negocio de que yo también vaya, irán conmigo.
5 But I will come to you when I shall have gone through Macedonia; for I do go through Macedonia.
5 Y á vosotros iré, cuando hubiere pasado por Macedonia, porque por Macedonia tengo de pasar:
6 But perhaps I will stay with you, or even winter with you, that ye may set me forward wheresoever I may go.
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 will not see you now in passing, for I hope to remain a certain time with you, if the Lord permit.
7 Porque no os quiero ahora ver de paso; porque espero estar con vosotros algún tiempo, si el Señor lo permitiere.
8 But I remain in Ephesus until Pentecost.
8 Empero estaré en Efeso hasta Pentecostés;
9 For a great door is opened to me and an effectual [one], and [the] adversaries many.
9 Porque se me ha abierto puerta grande y eficaz, y muchos son los adversarios.
10 Now if Timotheus come, see that he may be with you without fear; for he works the work of the Lord, even as I.
10 Y si llegare Timoteo, mirad que esté con vosotros seguramente; porque la obra del Señor hace también como yo.
11 Let not therefore any one despise him; but set him forward in peace, that he may come to me; for I expect him with the brethren.
11 Por tanto, nadie le tenga en poco; antes, llevadlo en paz, para que venga á mí: porque lo espero con los hermanos.
12 Now concerning the brother Apollos, I begged him much that he would go to you with the brethren; but it was not at all [his] will to go now; but he will come when he shall have good opportunity.
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 fast in the faith; quit yourselves like men; be strong.
13 Velad, estad firmes en la fe; portaos varonilmente, y esforzaos.
14 Let all things ye do be done in love.
14 Todas vuestras cosas sean hechas con caridad.
15 But I beseech you, brethren, (ye know the house of Stephanas, that it is the first-fruits of Achaia, and they have devoted themselves to the saints for service,)
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 that ye should also be subject to such, and to every one joined in the work and labouring.
16 Que vosotros os sujetéis á los tales, y á todos los que ayudan y trabajan.
17 But I rejoice in the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus; because they have supplied what was lacking on your part.
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: own therefore such.
18 Porque recrearon mi espíritu y el vuestro: reconoced pues á los tales.
19 The assemblies of Asia salute you. Aquila and Priscilla, with the assembly in their house, salute you much in [the] Lord.
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 brethren salute you. Salute one another with a holy kiss.
20 Os saludan todos los hermanos. Saludaos los unos á los otros con ósculo santo.
21 The salutation of [me] Paul with my own hand.
21 La salutación de mí, Pablo, de mi mano.
22 If any one love not the Lord [Jesus Christ] let him be Anathema Maranatha.
22 El que no amare al Señor Jesucristo, sea anatema. Maranatha.
23 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ [be] with you.
23 La gracia del Señor Jesucristo sea con vosotros.
24 My love [be] with you all 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.
