1 | I commend unto you Phebe our sister , which is a servant of the church which is at Cenchrea : |
2 | That 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 succourer of many , and of myself also . |
3 | Greet Priscilla and Aquila my helpers in Christ Jesus : |
4 | Who have for my life laid down their own necks : unto whom not only I give thanks , but also all the churches of the Gentiles . |
5 | Likewise [greet] the church that is in their house . Salute my wellbeloved Epaenetus , who is the firstfruits of Achaia unto Christ . |
6 | Greet Mary , who bestowed much labour on us . |
7 | Salute Andronicus and Junia , my kinsmen , and my fellowprisoners , who are of note among the apostles , who also were in Christ before me . |
8 | Greet Amplias my beloved in the Lord . |
9 | Salute Urbane , our helper in Christ , and Stachys my beloved . |
10 | Salute Apelles approved in Christ . Salute them which are of Aristobulus ' [household]. |
11 | Salute Herodion my kinsman . Greet them that be of the [household] of Narcissus , which are in the Lord . |
12 | Salute Tryphena and Tryphosa , who labour in the Lord . Salute the beloved Persis , which laboured much in the Lord . |
13 | Salute Rufus chosen in the Lord , and his mother and mine . |
14 | Salute Asyncritus , Phlegon , Hermas , Patrobas , Hermes , and the brethren which are with them . |
15 | Salute Philologus , and Julia , Nereus , and his sister , and Olympas , and all the saints which are with them . |
16 | Salute one another with an holy kiss . The churches of Christ salute you . |
17 | Now I beseech you , brethren , mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned ; and avoid them . |
18 | For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ , but their own belly ; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple . |
19 | For your obedience is come 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 . |
20 | And the God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly . The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with you . Amen . |
21 | Timotheus my workfellow , and Lucius , and Jason , and Sosipater , my kinsmen , salute you . |
22 | I Tertius , who wrote [this] epistle , salute you in the Lord . |
23 | Gaius mine host , and of the whole church , saluteth you . Erastus the chamberlain of the city saluteth you , and Quartus a brother . |
24 | The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with you all . Amen . |
25 | Now to him that is of power to stablish 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 , |
26 | But 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 : |
27 | To God only wise , [be] glory through Jesus Christ for ever . Amen . to the Romans from Corinthus , [and sent] by Phebe servant of the church at Cenchrea > |
