3. And when I arrive, I shall send those whom you have approved with letters of recommendation to take your gracious gift to Jerusalem.
4. If it seems fitting that I should go also, they will go with me.
5. I shall come to you after I pass through Macedonia (for I am going to pass through Macedonia),
6. and perhaps I shall stay or even spend the winter with you, 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, but I hope to spend some time with you, if the Lord permits.
