1I commend unto you Phoebe our sister, who is a servant of the church which is at Cenchrea,
2that ye receive her in the Lord as becometh saints, and that ye assist her in whatsoever business she hath need of you. For she hath been a succorer of many, and of myself also.
3Greet Priscilla and Aquila, my helpers in Christ Jesus,
4who have for my life laid down their own necks, unto whom not only I give thanks, but also all the churches of the Gentiles.
5Likewise greet the church that is in their house. Salute my well-beloved Epaenetus, who is the firstfruits of Achaia unto Christ.
6Greet Mary, who bestowed much labor on us.
7Salute Andronicus and Junia, my kinsmen and my fellow prisoners, who are of note among the apostles and who also were in Christ before me.
8Greet Amplias, my beloved in the Lord.
9Salute Urbanus, our helper in Christ, and my beloved Stachys.
10Salute Apelles, approved in Christ. Salute those who are of the household of Aristobulus.
11Salute Herodion, my kinsman. Greet those who are of the household of Narcissus, who are in the Lord.
12Salute Tryphena and Tryphosa, who labor in the Lord. Salute the beloved Persis, who labored much in the Lord.
13Salute Rufus, chosen in the Lord, and his mother and mine.
14Salute Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermes, Patrobas, Hermas, and the brethren who are with them.
15Salute Philologus and Julia, Nereus and his sister, and Olympas, and all the saints who are with them.
16Salute one another with a holy kiss. The churches of Christ salute you.
17Now I beseech you, brethren, mark those who cause divisions and offenses, contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned, and avoid them.
18For such as they serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly, and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple.
19For your obedience has become known abroad unto all men. I am glad therefore on your behalf; but yet I would have you wise unto that which is good, and simple concerning evil.
20And the God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.
21Timothy, my fellow worker, and Lucius and Jason and Sosipater, my kinsmen, salute you.
22(I, Tertius, who wrote down this epistle, salute you in the Lord.)
23Gaius, my host and host of the whole church, saluteth you. Erastus, the treasurer of the city, saluteth you, and Quartus, a brother.
24The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.
25Now to Him who has the power to establish you according to my Gospel and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery which was kept secret since the world began
26but now is made manifest, and by the Scriptures of the prophets, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, made known to all nations for the obedience of faith,
27to God alone wise, be glory through Jesus Christ for ever. Amen.
