Paul's Letter to the Romans, Chapter 16
{16:1} I commend to you Phoebe, our sister, who is a
[1>]shammash[<1] of the assembly that is at Cenchreae, {16:2} that you
receive her in the Lord, in a way worthy of the holy ones, and that
you assist her in whatever matter she may need from you, for she
herself also has been a helper of many, and of my own self.
{16:3} Greet Prisca and Aquila, my fellow workers in Messiah Yeshua,
{16:4} who for my life, laid down their own necks; to whom not only I
give thanks, but also all the assemblies of the Gentiles. {16:5} Greet
the assembly that is in their house. Greet Epaenetus, my beloved, who
is the first fruits of Achaia to Messiah. {16:6} Greet Miriam, who
labored much for us. {16:7} Greet Andronicus and Junias, my relatives
and my fellow prisoners, who are notable among the emissaries, who
also were in Messiah before me. {16:8} Greet Amplias, my beloved in
the Lord. {16:9} Greet Urbanus, our fellow worker in Messiah, and
Stachys, my beloved. {16:10} Greet Apelles, the approved in Messiah.
Greet those who are of the household of Aristobulus. {16:11} Greet
Herodion, my kinsman. Greet them of the household of Narcissus, who
are in the Lord. {16:12} Greet Tryphaena and Tryphosa, who labor in
the Lord. Greet Persis, the beloved, who labored much in the Lord.
{16:13} Greet Rufus, the chosen in the Lord, and his mother and mine.
{16:14} Greet Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermes, Patrobas, Hermas, and the
[2>]brothers[<2] who are with them. {16:15} Greet Philologus and
Julia, Nereus and his sister, and Olympas, and all the holy ones who
are with them. {16:16} Greet one another with a holy kiss. The
assemblies of Messiah greet you.
{16:17} Now I beg you, brothers, look out for those who are causing
the divisions and occasions of stumbling, contrary to the doctrine
which you learned, and turn away from them. {16:18} For those who are
such don't serve our Lord, Yeshua the Messiah, but their own belly;
and by their smooth and flattering speech, they deceive the hearts of
the innocent. {16:19} For your obedience has become known to all. I
rejoice therefore over you. But I desire to have you wise in that
which is good, but innocent in that which is evil. {16:20} And the God
of peace will quickly crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our
Lord Yeshua the Messiah be with you.
{16:21} Timothy, my fellow worker, greets you, as do Lucius, Jason,
and Sosipater, my relatives. {16:22} I, Tertius, who write the letter,
greet you in the Lord. {16:23} Gaius, my host and host of the whole
assembly, greets you. Erastus, the treasurer of the city, greets you,
as does Quartus, the brother. {16:24} The grace of our Lord Yeshua the
Messiah be with you all! Amen.{16:25} [3]
