Romans

Chapter 16

1 I ENTRUST to your care Phe'be, our sis ter, who is a deaconess of the church which is at Cen'chre-a:

2 That you may receive her in our LORD, with the respect which is due saints, and that you may assist her in whatever she may need of you: for she has been a help to many, and to me also.

3 Salute Pris-cil'la and A'qui-la, fellowworkers with me in Jesus Christ,

4 Who have risked their necks for my sake: I am not the only one grateful to them, but also all the churches of the Gentiles.

5 Likewise salute the congregation that is in their house. Salute my well beloved E-pµn'etus, who is the first-fruits of A-cha'ia unto Christ.

6 Greet Mary, who has labored hard among you.

7 Salute An-dro-ni'cus and Junia, my kinsmen, who were prisoners with me, and wellknown among the apostles, and who were believers in Christ before me.

8 Greet Am'pli-as, my beloved in our LORD.

9 Salute Ur'bane, our fellow-worker in Christ, and Sta'chys, my beloved.

10 Salute A-pel'les, chosen in our LORD. Salute the members of the household of Ar-is-to-bu'lus.

11 Salute He-ro'di-on my kinsman. Greet the members of the household of Nar-cis'sus, who are in our LORD.

12 Salute Try-phe'na and Try-pho'sa, who labor in the LORD. Salute the beloved Per'sis, who labored hard in our LORD.

13 Salute Rufus chosen in our LORD, and his mother, who is also a mother to me.

14 Salute A-syn'cri-tus, Phle'gon, Hermas, Patrobas, Hermes, and the brethren who are with them.

15 Salute Phi-lol'o-gus, and Julia, Ne're-us and his sister, and O-lym'pas, and all the saints who are with them.

16 Salute one another with a holy kiss. The churches of Christ salute you.

17 Now I beseech you, my brethren, beware of those who cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which you have been taught; keep away from them.

18 For those who are such do not serve our LORD Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by smooth words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple people.

19 But your obedience is known to every one. I rejoice therefore on your behalf: and I want you to be wise in regard to good things, and pure concerning evil things.

20 The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet. The Grace of our LORD Jesus Christ be with you.

21 Ti-mo'the-us, my fellow-worker, and Lucius, and Jason, and So-sip'a-ter, my kinsmen, salute you.

22 I Ter'tius, who wrote this epistle, salute you in the LORD.

23 Ga'ius, my host and of the whole church, salutes you. E-ras'tus, the chamberlain of the city, salutes you; and Quar'tus, a brother. Romans 16 Revelation of the mystery.

24 Now I entrust you to God who will confirm you in my gospel which is preached concerning Jesus Christ, in the revelation of the mystery, which was hidden since the world began,

25 But now is made manifest by the scriptures of the prophets; and by the command of the eternal God, and is made known to all the peoples for the obedience of faith:

26 For God is the only wise one, and to him be glory through Jesus Christ for ever and ever: Amen.

27 The grace of our LORD Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.
