17NowG1161 I urgeG3870 you, brethrenG80, keepG4648 your eyeG4648 on thoseG3588 who causeG4160 dissensionsG1370 and 27hindrancesG4625 28contraryG3844 to the teachingG1322 whichG3739 you learnedG3129, and 29turnG1578 awayG1578 from them. 18For suchG5108 menG5108 are 30slavesG1398, not of our LordG2962 ChristG5547 but of 31their ownG1438 32appetitesG2836; and by their 33smoothG5542 and flatteringG2129 speechG2129 they deceiveG1818 the heartsG2588 of the unsuspectingG172. 19For the report of your obedienceG5218 34has reachedG864 to allG3956; thereforeG3767 I am rejoicingG5463 overG1909 you, but 35I wantG2309 you to be wiseG4680 in whatG18 is goodG18 and innocentG185 in whatG2556 is evilG2556. 2036The GodG2316 of peaceG1515 will soonG5034 crushG4937 37SatanG4567 underG5259 your feetG4228.

38The graceG5485 of our LordG2962 JesusG2424 be with you.

22I, TertiusG5060, who 44writeG1125 thisG3588 letterG1992, greetG782 you in the LordG2962.

2548NowG1161 to Him who is ableG1410 to establishG4741 you 49accordingG2596 to my gospelG2098 and the preachingG2782 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547, accordingG2596 to the revelationG602 of 50the mysteryG3466 which has been keptG4601 secretG4601 for 51longG5550 agesG5550 past, 26but nowG3568 is manifestedG5319, and by 52the ScripturesG1124 of the prophetsG4397, accordingG2596 to the commandmentG2003 of the eternalG166 GodG2316, has been madeG1107 knownG1107 to allG3956 the nationsG1484, leading to 53obedienceG5218 of faithG4102; 27to the onlyG3441 wiseG4680 GodG2316, throughG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, 54be the gloryG1391 foreverG165.
