「我離開耶路撒冷已有多年，這次回來是帶著捐款要賙濟同胞，並獻上祭物。

弟兄姊妹，我們現在要讓你們知道上帝向馬其頓各教會所施的恩典。他們雖然遭遇極大的患難，受盡熬煉，卻充滿了喜樂，在極度貧窮的情況下仍然十分慷慨樂捐。我可以證明，他們是甘心樂意，盡其所能地捐助，甚至超過了自己的能力。他們懇切地求我們准許他們與有需要的聖徒分享上帝的恩典。他們這樣做超過了我們的期望，並且他們按照上帝的旨意首先把自己獻給主，然後獻給我們。所以，我們勸提多要繼續完成他早先在你們當中開始的這件善事。你們既然在信心、口才、知識、熱心和對我們的愛心上都有突出的表現，也要在這件善事上有突出的表現。我說這話並非命令你們，而是藉著別人的熱心考驗一下你們愛心的真偽。因為你們知道我們主耶穌基督的恩典，祂本來富足，卻為你們的緣故變得貧窮，使你們藉著祂的貧窮可以變得富足。

不可忘記行善和幫補別人，因為這樣的祭是上帝所喜悅的。

如果有弟兄姊妹缺衣少食，你們只是對他們說：「安心走吧，願你們穿得暖，吃得飽」，卻不幫助他解決實際困難，這有什麼用呢？

但現在我要去耶路撒冷服侍當地的聖徒，因為馬其頓和亞該亞的教會欣然捐出了財物給耶路撒冷的窮困聖徒。這固然是他們慷慨解囊，但也可以說是他們該還的債。外族人既然分享了猶太聖徒屬靈的福分，現在以物質報答他們也是應該的。

門徒決定各盡所能，捐款救濟住在猶太境內的弟兄姊妹。他們捐完後，委託巴拿巴和掃羅將款項送交耶路撒冷教會的長老。

至於捐款幫助聖徒這件事，你們可以照我吩咐加拉太各教會的方法辦理。每逢週日，各人應按照自己的收入抽出一部分留起來，免得我到的時候才現湊。
