Sha'ul�s Letter to the Colossians, Chapter 4
{4:1} Masters, give to your servants that which is just and equal,
knowing that you also have a Master in heaven. {4:2} Continue
steadfastly in prayer, watching therein with thanksgiving; {4:3}
praying together for us also, that God may open to us a door for the
word, to speak the mystery of Messiah, for which I am also in bonds;
{4:4} that I may reveal it as I ought to speak. {4:5} Walk in wisdom
toward those who are outside, redeeming the time. {4:6} Let your
speech always be with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how
you ought to answer each one. {4:7} All my affairs will be made known
to you by Tychicus, the beloved brother, faithful servant, and fellow
bondservant in the Lord. {4:8} I am sending him to you for this very
purpose, that he may know your circumstances and comfort your hearts,
{4:9} together with Onesimus, the faithful and beloved brother, who is
one of you. They will make known to you all things that are going on
here. {4:10} Aristarchus, my fellow prisoner greets you, and Mark, the
cousin of Bar-Nabba (concerning whom you received [1>]mitzvot[<1], "if
he comes to you, receive him"), {4:11} and Yeshua who is called
Justus, who are of the circumcision. These are my only fellow workers
to the kingdom of God, men who have been a comfort to me.
{4:12} Epaphras, who is one of you, a servant of Messiah, salutes
you, always striving for you in his prayers, that you may stand
perfect and complete in all the will of God. {4:13} For I testify
about him, that he has great zeal for you, and for those in Laodicea,
and for those in Hierapolis. {4:14} Luke, the beloved physician, and
Demas greet you. {4:15} Greet the brothers who are in Laodicea, and
Nymphas, and the assembly that is in his house. {4:16} When this
letter has been read among you, cause it to be read also in the
assembly of the Laodiceans; and that you also read the letter from
Laodicea. {4:17} Tell Archippus, "Take heed to the ministry which you
have received in the Lord, that you fulfill it." {4:18} The salutation
of me, Sha'ul, with my own hand. Remember my bonds. Grace be with you.
Amein.
