1 Corinthians 16:5-9 Common English Bible (CEB)

5. I’ll come to you after I go through Macedonia, and because I’m going through Macedonia,

6. I may stay with you or even spend the winter there in Corinth so that you can send me on my way to wherever I’m off to next.

7. I don’t want to make a quick visit to you, since I hope to spend some time with you if the Lord lets it happen.

8. I’ll stay here in Ephesus until the Festival of Pentecost.

9. In spite of the fact that there are many opponents, a big and productive opportunity has opened up for my mission here.
