Romans 16:5-23
5also greet 1the church that is in their house. Greet Epaenetus, my beloved, who is the 2first convert to Christ from 34Asia. 6Greet Mary, who has worked hard for you. 7Greet Andronicus and 5Junias, my 6kinsmen and my 7fellow prisoners, who are outstanding among the apostles, who also 8were 9in Christ before me. 8Greet Ampliatus, my beloved in the Lord. 9Greet Urbanus, our fellow worker 10in Christ, and Stachys my beloved. 10Greet Apelles, the approved 11in Christ. Greet those who are of the household of Aristobulus. 11Greet Herodion, my 12kinsman. Greet those of the household of Narcissus, who are in the Lord. 12Greet Tryphaena and Tryphosa, workers in the Lord. Greet Persis the beloved, who has worked hard in the Lord. 13Greet 13Rufus, a choice man in the Lord, also his mother and mine. 14Greet Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermes, Patrobas, Hermas and the brethren with them. 15Greet Philologus and Julia, Nereus and his sister, and Olympas, and all 14the 15saints who are with them. 1616Greet one another with a holy kiss. All the churches of Christ greet you.
17Now I urge you, brethren, keep your eye on those who cause dissensions and 17hindrances 18contrary to the teaching which you learned, and 19turn away from them. 18For such men are 20slaves, not of our Lord Christ but of 21their own 22appetites; and by their 23smooth and flattering speech they deceive the hearts of the unsuspecting. 19For the report of your obedience 24has reached to all; therefore I am rejoicing over you, but 25I want you to be wise in what is good and innocent in what is evil. 2026The God of peace will soon crush 27Satan under your feet.
28The grace of our Lord Jesus be with you.
2129Timothy my fellow worker greets you, and so do 30Lucius and 31Jason and 32Sosipater, my 33kinsmen.
22I, Tertius, who 34write this letter, greet you in the Lord.
2335Gaius, host to me and to the whole church, greets you. 36Erastus, the city treasurer greets you, and Quartus, the brother.
