1 Corinthians 16:8-11 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

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.

11. So let no one despise him. But send him on his way in peace, so that he may come to me; for I expect him with the brethren.
