Paul in Ephesus

1 And it happened that while ^rApollos was at Corinth, Paul passed through the inland¹ country and came to Ephesus. There he found some disciples.

12 What I mean is that each one of you says, “I follow Paul,” or “I follow ^vApollos,” or “I follow Cephas,” or “I follow Christ.”

5 What then is Apollos? What is Paul? Servants through whom you believed, as the Lord assigned to each. 6 ^xI planted, ^yApollos watered, but God gave the growth.

6 I have applied all these things to myself and Apollos for your benefit, brothers,¹ that you may learn by us not to go beyond what is written, that none of you may be ^zpuffed up in favor of one against another.

Final Instructions

12 Now concerning ^vour brother ^wApollos, I strongly urged him to visit you with the other brothers, but it was not at all his will¹ to come now. He will come when he has opportunity.

13 Do your best to speed Zenas the lawyer and ^fApollos on their way; see that they lack nothing.
