1 The lords, the just and the equal to the slaves render you, knowing, that also you have a Lord in heavens.

2 To the prayer attend you constantly, watching in it, with thankfulness; 3 praying at the same time also for us, that the God may open to us a door for the word, to speak the secret of the Anointed, on account of which even I have been bound; 4 so that I may make manifest it, as it behooves me to speak. 5 In wisdom walk you towards those outside, the season buying for yourselves. 6 The word of you always with favor, with salt having been seasoned, to have known how it behooves you one each to answer.

7 The things concerning me all will make known to you Tychicus the beloved brother and faithful servant and fellow-slave in Lord; 8 whom I sent to you for it this thing, that he may know the things concerning you, and may comfort the hearts of you; 9 with Onesimus the faithful and beloved brother, who is from you; all to you they will make known the things here.

10 Salutes you Aristarchus the fellow-captive of me, and Mark the nephew of Barnabas, concerning whom you received commands; (of he should come to you, receive him;) 11 and Jesus he being called Justus; they being of circumcision; these alone fellowworkers for the kingdom of the God, who were to me a comfort. 12 Salutes you Epaphras, he from you a slave of Anointed, always fervently striving on behalf of you in the prayers, that you may stand perfect even having been completed in all will of the God. 13 I testify for to him, that he has great concern on behalf of you, and for those in Laodicea, and for those in Hierapolis. 14 Salutes you Luke the physician the beloved, and Demas. 15 Salute you those in Laodicea brethren, and Nymphas, and the in house of him congregation. 16 And when may have been read among you the letter, make you, that also in the Laodiceans congregation it may be read, and that from Laodicea that also you may read. 17 And say you to Archippus: See the service which thou didst receive in Lord, that her thou mayest fulfil.

18 The salvation in the my hand of Paul. Remember you of me the chains. The favor with you.
