Ephesians 6:18-24
181With every 2prayer and request, 34pray at all times 5in the Spirit, and with this in view, 67be alert with all 8perseverance and every 9request for all the 10saints, 19and 11pray in my behalf, that speech may be given to me 12in the opening of my mouth, to make known with 13boldness 14the mystery of the gospel, 20for which I am an 15ambassador 16in 17chains; that 18in proclaiming it I may speak 19boldly, 20as I ought to speak.
2121Now, so that you also may know about my circumstances as to 22what I am doing, 23Tychicus, 24the beloved brother and faithful 25servant in the Lord, will make everything known to you. 222627I have sent him to you for this very purpose, so that you may know 28about us, and that he may 29comfort your hearts.
2330Peace be to the brothers and sisters, and 31love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. 24Grace be with all those who love our Lord Jesus Christ 32with incorruptible love.
