“ After an absence of several years, I came to Jerusalem to bring my people gifts for the poor and to present offerings.

“ I was away for several years. Then I came to Jerusalem to bring my people gifts for those who were poor. I also came to offer sacrifices.

Now after several years I came to bring alms to my nation and to present offerings.

“ After several years away, I returned to Jerusalem with money to aid my people and to offer sacrifices to God.

After many years, I came to bring charitable gifts and offerings to my people.

Now after several years I came to bring charitable gifts to my nation and to present offerings,

Now after some years I came to bring alms to my nation, and offerings:

After many years, I came to bring charitable gifts and offerings to my nation,

Now after some years, I came to bring gifts for the needy to my nation, and offerings;

They desired only that we should remember the poor, the very thing which I also was eager to do.

Moreover, brethren, we make known to you the grace of God bestowed on the churches of Macedonia:that in a great trial of affliction the abundance of their joy and their deep poverty abounded in the riches of their liberality.For I bear witness that according to their ability, yes, and beyond their ability, they were freely willing,imploring us with much urgency that we would receive the gift and the fellowship of the ministering to the saints.

But now I am going to Jerusalem to minister to the saints.For it pleased those from Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor among the saints who are in Jerusalem.It pleased them indeed, and they are their debtors. For if the Gentiles have been partakers of their spiritual things, their duty is also to minister to them in material things.Therefore, when I have performed this and have sealed to them this fruit, I shall go by way of you to Spain.

For Paul had decided to sail past Ephesus, so that he would not have to spend time in Asia; for he was hurrying to be at Jerusalem, if possible, on the Day of Pentecost.

Then the disciples, each according to his ability, determined to send relief to the brethren dwelling in Judea.This they also did, and sent it to the elders by the hands of Barnabas and Saul.

For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though He was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, that you through His poverty might become rich.

Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I have given orders to the churches of Galatia, so you must do also:On the first day of the week let each one of you lay something aside, storing up as he may prosper, that there be no collections when I come.And when I come, whomever you approve by your letters I will send to bear your gift to Jerusalem.But if it is fitting that I go also, they will go with me.

Now concerning the ministering to the saints, it is superfluous for me to write to you;for I know your willingness, about which I boast of you to the Macedonians, that Achaia was ready a year ago; and your zeal has stirred up the majority.

Therefore watch, and remember that for three years I did not cease to warn everyone night and day with tears.

Then Paul took the men, and the next day, having been purified with them, entered the temple to announce the expiration of the days of purification, at which time an offering should be made for each one of them.

that I may be delivered from those in Judea who do not believe, and that my service for Jerusalem may be acceptable to the saints,

For the administration of this service not only supplies the needs of the saints, but also is abounding through many thanksgivings to God,
