Colossians 4:3-11

3At the same time pray for us too, that God may open a door for the message so that we may proclaim the mystery of Christ, for which I am in chains.

4Pray that I may make it known as I should.

5Conduct yourselves with wisdom toward outsiders, making the most of the opportunities.

6Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how you should answer everyone.

7Tychicus, a dear brother, faithful minister, and fellow slave in the Lord, will tell you all the news about me.

8I sent him to you for this very purpose, that you may know how we are doing and that he may encourage your hearts.

9I sent him with Onesimus, the faithful and dear brother, who is one of you. They will tell you about everything here.

10Aristarchus, my fellow prisoner, sends you greetings, as does Mark, the cousin of Barnabas (about whom you received instructions; if he comes to you, welcome him).

11And Jesus who is called Justus also sends greetings. In terms of Jewish converts, these are the only fellow workers for the kingdom of God, and they have been a comfort to me.
