[16:5] I will visit you after passing through Macedonia, for I intend to pass through Macedonia,
[16:6] and perhaps I will stay with you or even spend the winter, so that you may help me on my journey, wherever I go.
[16:7] For I do not want to see you now just in passing. I hope to spend some time with you, if the Lord permits.
[16:8] But I will stay in Ephesus until Pentecost,
[16:9] for a wide door for effective work has opened to me, and there are many adversaries.
[16:10] When Timothy comes, see that you put him at ease among you, for he is doing the work of the Lord, as I am.
[16:11] So let no one despise him. Help him on his way in peace, that he may return to me, for I am expecting him with the brothers.
