Paul’s Final Greetings

19 The churches here in the province of Asia[a] send greetings in the Lord, as do Aquila and Priscilla[b] and all the others who gather in their home for church meetings. 20 All the brothers and sisters here send greetings to you. Greet each other with a sacred kiss.

21 HERE IS MY GREETING IN MY OWN HANDWRITING—PAUL.

22 If anyone does not love the Lord, that person is cursed. Our Lord, come![c]

23 May the grace of the Lord Jesus be with you.

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