3. When I arrive, whomever you may approve, I will send them with letters to carry your gift to Jerusalem;
4. and if it is fitting for me to go also, they will go with me.
5. But I will come to you after I go through Macedonia, for I am going through Macedonia;
6. and perhaps I will stay with you, or even spend the winter, so that you may send me on my way wherever I may go.
7. For I do not wish to see you now just in passing; for I hope to remain with you for some time, if the Lord permits.
8. But I will remain in Ephesus until Pentecost;
9. for a wide door for effective service has opened to me, and there are many adversaries.
10. Now if Timothy comes, see that he is with you without cause to be afraid, for he is doing the Lord's work, as I also am.
