1 Corinthians 16:15-18
New English Translation
15 Now, brothers and sisters,[a] you know about the household of Stephanus, that as the first converts[b] of Achaia, they devoted themselves to ministry for the saints. I urge you 16 also to submit to people like this, and to everyone who cooperates in the work and labors hard. 17 I was glad about the arrival of Stephanus, Fortunatus, and Achaicus because they have supplied the fellowship with you that I lacked.[c] 18 For they refreshed my spirit and yours. So then, recognize people like this.

Therefore recognize such people.
