11. Greetings to Herodion, a fellow-Jew, and to the Christians in the family of Narcissus.
12. My greetings to Tryphaena and Tryphosa, who work in the Lord's service, and to my dear friend Persis, who has done so much work for the Lord.
13. I send greetings to Rufus, that outstanding worker in the Lord's service, and to his mother, who has always treated me like a son.
14. My greetings to Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermes, Patrobas, Hermas, and all the other Christian brothers and sisters with them.
15. Greetings to Philologus and Julia, to Nereus and his sister, to Olympas and to all of God's people who are with them.
16. Greet one another with a holy kiss. All the churches of Christ send you their greetings.
17. I urge you, my brothers and sisters: watch out for those who cause divisions and upset people's faith and go against the teaching which you have received. Keep away from them!
18. For those who do such things are not serving Christ our Lord, but their own appetites. By their fine words and flattering speech they deceive innocent people.
19. Everyone has heard of your loyalty to the gospel, and for this reason I am happy about you. I want you to be wise about what is good, but innocent in what is evil.
20. And God, our source of peace, will soon crush Satan under your feet.The grace of our Lord Jesus be with you.
21. Timothy, my fellow-worker, sends you his greetings; and so do Lucius, Jason, and Sosipater, fellow-Jews.
22. I, Tertius, the writer of this letter, send you Christian greetings.
23. My host Gaius, in whose house the church meets, sends you his greetings; Erastus, the city treasurer, and our brother Quartus send you their greetings.
25. Let us give glory to God! He is able to make you stand firm in your faith, according to the Good News I preach about Jesus Christ and according to the revelation of the secret truth which was hidden for long ages in the past.
26. Now, however, that truth has been brought out into the open through the writings of the prophets; and by the command of the eternal God it is made known to all nations, so that all may believe and obey.
27. To the only God, who alone is all-wise, be glory through Jesus Christ for ever! Amen.
