¹⁵ Now I urge you, brothers and sisters: you know the ^(A)household of Stephanas, that ^[a]they are the ^(B)first fruits of ^(C)Achaia, and that they have devoted themselves to ^(D)ministry to ^(E)the ^[b]saints; ¹⁶ I urge that ^(F)you also be subject to such as these and to everyone who helps in the work and labors. ¹⁷ I rejoice over the ^[c](G)coming of Stephanas, Fortunatus, and Achaicus, because they have ^[d]supplied ^(H)what was lacking on your part. ¹⁸ For they ^(I)have refreshed my spirit and yours. Therefore ^(J)acknowledge such men.
