Romans 16

¹Now I commend to you our sister Phoebe, who is in the ministry of the church, which is at Cenchreae,

²so that you may receive her in the Lord with the worthiness of the saints, and so that you may be of assistance to her in whatever task she will have need of you. For she herself has also assisted many, and myself also.

³Greet Prisca and Aquila, my helpers in Christ Jesus,

⁴who have risked their own necks on behalf of my life, for whom I give thanks, not I alone, but also all the churches of the Gentiles;

⁵and greet the church at their house. Greet Epaenetus, my beloved, who is among the first-fruits of Asia in Christ.

⁶Greet Mary, who has labored much among you.

⁷Greet Andronicus and Junias, my kinsmen and fellow captives, who are noble among the Apostles, and who were in Christ prior to me.

⁸Greet Ampliatus, most beloved to me in the Lord.

⁹Greet Urbanus, our helper in Christ Jesus, and Stachys, my beloved.

¹⁰Greet Apelles, who has been tested in Christ.

¹¹Greet those who are from the household of Aristobulus. Greet Herodian, my kinsman. Greet those who are of the household of Narcissus, who are in the Lord.

¹²Greet Tryphaena and Tryphosa, who labor in the Lord. Greet Persis, most beloved, who has labored much in the Lord.

¹³Greet Rufus, elect in the Lord, and his mother and mine.

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

¹⁵Greet Philologus and Julia, Nereus and his sister, and Olympas, and all the saints who are with them.

¹⁶Greet one another with a holy kiss. All the churches of Christ greet you.

¹⁷But I beg you, brothers, to take note of those who cause dissensions and offenses contrary to the doctrine that you have learned, and to turn away from them.

¹⁸For ones such as these do not serve Christ our Lord, but their inner selves, and, through pleasing words and skillful speaking, they seduce the hearts of the innocent.

¹⁹But your obedience has been made known in every place. And so, I rejoice in you. But I want you to be wise in what is good, and simple in what is evil.

²⁰And may the God of peace quickly crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.

²¹Timothy, my fellow laborer, greets you, and Lucius and Jason and Sosipater, my kinsmen.

²²I, Tertius, who wrote this epistle, greet you in the Lord.

²³Gaius, my host, and the entire church, greets you. Erastus, the treasurer of the city, greets you, and Quartus, a brother.

²⁴The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.

²⁵But to him who is able to confirm you according to my Gospel and the preaching of Jesus Christ, in accord with the revelation of the mystery which has been hidden from time immemorial,

²⁶(which now has been made clear through the Scriptures of the Prophets, in accord with the precept of the eternal God, unto the obedience of faith) which has been made known among all the Gentiles:

²⁷to God, who alone is wise, through Jesus Christ, to him be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen.

Romans 16

¹And I commend to you Phebe, our sister, who is in the ministry of the church, that is in Cenchrae:

²That you receive her in the Lord as becometh saints and that you assist her in whatsoever business she shall have need of you. For she also hath assisted many, and myself also.

³Salute Prisca and Aquila, my helpers, in Christ Jesus

⁴(Who have for my life laid down their own necks: to whom not I only give thanks, but also all the churches of the Gentiles),

⁵And the church which is in their house. Salute Epenetus, my beloved: who is the firstfruits of Asia in Christ.

⁶Salute Mary, who hath laboured much among you.

⁷Salute Andronicus and Junias, my kinsmen and fellow prisoners: who are of note among the apostles, who also were in Christ before me.

⁸Salute Ampliatus, most beloved to me in the Lord.

⁹Salute Urbanus, our helper in Christ Jesus and Stachys, my beloved.

¹⁰Salute Apellas, approved in Christ.

¹¹Salute them that are of Aristobulus' household. Salute Herodian, my kinsman. Salute them that are of Narcissus' household, who are in the Lord.

¹²Salute Tryphaena and Tryphosa, who labour in the Lord. Salute Persis, the dearly beloved, who hath much laboured in the Lord.

¹³Salute Rufus, elect in the Lord, and his mother and mine.

¹⁴Salute Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermas, Patrobas, Hermes: and the brethren that are with them.

¹⁵Salute Philologus and Julia, Nereus and his sister, and Olympias: and all the saints that are with them.

¹⁶Salute one another with an holy kiss. All the churches of Christ salute you.

¹⁷Now I beseech you, brethren, to mark them who make dissensions and offences contrary to the doctrine which you have learned and avoid them.

¹⁸For they that are such serve not Christ our Lord but their own belly: and by pleasing speeches and good words seduce the hearts of the innocent.

¹⁹For your obedience is published in every place. I rejoice therefore in you. But I would have you to be wise in good and simple in evil.

²⁰And the God of peace crush Satan under your feet speedily. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.

²¹Timothy, my fellow labourer, saluteth you: and Lucius and Jason and Sosipater, my kinsmen.

²²I, Tertius, who wrote this epistle, salute you in the Lord.

²³Caius, my host, and 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 that is able to establish you, according to my gospel and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery which was kept secret from eternity;

²⁶(Which now is made manifest by the scriptures of the prophets, according to the precept of the eternal God, for the obedience of faith) known among all nations:

²⁷To God, the only wise, through Jesus Christ, to whom be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.
