16:1And I commend to you Phoebe our sister, who is in the ministry of the church which is at Cenchreae: that you receive her in the Lord worthily of saints: and stand by her in whatever business she may have need of you: for she herself too has stood by many, and by me myself. 16:3Greet Prisca and Aquila, my helpers in Christ Jesus (who for my life laid down their necks: to whom not I alone give thanks, but also all the churches of the nations), and the church in their household. 16:5Greet Epaenetus, beloved to me, who is the firstfruit of Asia in Christ. 16:6Greet Mary, who has laboured much among you.
16:7Greet Andronicus and Junia, my kinsmen, and fellow captives: who are notable among the Apostles, who also were in Christ before me. 16:8Greet Ampliatus, most beloved to me in the Lord. 16:9Greet Urbanus our helper in Christ Jesus, and Stachys my beloved. 16:10Greet Apelles, approved in Christ. 16:11Greet those who are of the household of Aristobulus. 16:11Greet Herodion my kinsman. 16:11Greet those who are of the household of Narcissus, who are in the Lord. 16:12Greet Tryphaena and Tryphosa, who labour in the Lord. 16:12Greet Persis the dearest, who has laboured much in the Lord. 16:13Greet Rufus, chosen in the Lord, and his mother, and mine. 16:14Greet Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermas, Patrobas, Hermes, and the brothers who are with them.
16:15Greet Philologus and Julia, Nereus, and his sister, and Olympas, and all the saints who are with them. 16:16Greet one another with a holy kiss. 16:16All the churches of Christ greet you. 16:17And I ask you, brothers, to watch those who cause dissensions and stumbling blocks, contrary to the teaching which you have learned, and turn aside from them. 16:18For people of this sort do not serve Christ our Lord, but their own belly: and through sweet speeches and blessings they lead astray the hearts of the innocent. 16:19For your obedience has been spread abroad into every place. 16:19I rejoice therefore in you. 16:19But I want you to be wise in good, and simple in evil.
16:20And may the God of peace crush Satan under your feet swiftly. 16:20The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. 16:21Timothy my helper greets you, and Lucius, and Jason, and Sosipater, my kinsmen. 16:22I Tertius, who wrote the letter, greet you in the Lord. 16:23Gaius my host greets you, and the whole church. 16:23Erastus, treasurer of the city, greets you, and Quartus, a brother. 16:24The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. 16:24Amen. 16:25And to him who is able to strengthen you according to my Gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery kept silent in eternal times (which has now been laid open through the Scriptures of the prophets according to the command of the eternal God, for the obedience of faith), made known among all the nations, to the only wise God, through Jesus Christ, to whom be honour and glory for ages of ages.
16:27Amen.
