Final Greetings

19 The churches in the province of Asia(A) send you greetings. Aquila and Priscilla[a](B) greet you warmly in the Lord, and so does the church that meets at their house.(C) 20 All the brothers and sisters here send you greetings. Greet one another with a holy kiss.(D)

21 I, Paul, write this greeting in my own hand.(E)

22 If anyone does not love the Lord,(F) let that person be cursed!(G) Come, Lord[b]!(H)

23 The grace of the Lord Jesus be with you.(I)

24 My love to all of you in Christ Jesus. Amen.[c]
