Romans - Chapter 16

¹ I commend to you our sister Phoebe, a deaconess of the church at Cenchreae;

² give her, in the Lord, a welcome worthy of God's holy people, and help her with whatever she needs from you -- she herself has come to the help of many people, including myself.

³ My greetings to Prisca and Aquila, my fellow-workers in Christ Jesus,

⁴ who risked their own necks to save my life; to them, thanks not only from me, but from all the churches among the gentiles;

⁵ and my greetings to the church at their house. Greetings to my dear friend Epaenetus, the first of Asia's offerings to Christ.

⁶ Greetings to Mary, who worked so hard for you.

⁷ Greetings to those outstanding apostles, Andronicus and Junias, my kinsmen and fellow-prisoners, who were in Christ before me.

⁸ Greetings to Ampliatus, my dear friend in the Lord.

⁹ Greetings to Urban, my fellow-worker in Christ, and to my dear friend Stachys.

¹⁰ Greetings to Apelles, proved servant of Christ. Greetings to all the household of Aristobulus.

¹¹ Greetings to my kinsman, Herodion, and greetings to those who belong to the Lord in the household of Narcissus.

¹² Greetings to Tryphaena and Tryphosa who work hard in the Lord; greetings to my dear friend Persis, also a very hard worker in the Lord.

¹³ Greetings to Rufus, chosen servant of the Lord, and to his mother -- a mother to me too.

¹⁴ Greetings to Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermes, Patrobas, Hermas, and the brothers who are with them.

¹⁵ Greetings to Philologus and Julia, Nereus and his sister, and Olympas and all God's holy people who are with them.

¹⁶ Greet each other with the holy kiss. All the churches of Christ send their greetings.

¹⁷ I urge you, brothers, be on your guard against the people who are out to stir up disagreements and bring up difficulties against the teaching which you learnt. Avoid them.

¹⁸ People of that sort are servants not of our Lord Christ, but of their own greed; and with talk that sounds smooth and reasonable they deceive the minds of the unwary.

¹⁹ Your obedience has become known to everyone, and I am very pleased with you for it; but I should want you to be learned only in what is good, and unsophisticated about all that is evil.

²⁰ The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.

²¹ Timothy, who is working with me, sends greetings to you, and so do my kinsmen Lucius, Jason and Sosipater.

²² I, Tertius, who am writing this letter, greet you in the Lord.

²³ Greetings to you from Gaius, my host here, and host of the whole church. Erastus, the city treasurer, sends greetings to you, and our brother Quartus.

²⁴

²⁵ And now to him who can make you strong in accordance with the gospel that I preach and the proclamation of Jesus Christ, in accordance with that mystery which for endless ages was kept secret

²⁶ but now (as the prophets wrote) is revealed, as the eternal God commanded, to be made known to all the nations, so that they obey in faith:

²⁷ to him, the only wise God, give glory through Jesus Christ for ever and ever. Amen.
