To Him be the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen. 12By Silvanus, our faithful brother as I consider him, I have written to you briefly, exhorting and testifying that this is the true grace of God in which you stand. 13She who is in Babylon, elect together with you, greets you; and so does Mark my son.
