Recomendaciones y saludos personales
16 Les recomiendo(A) a nuestra hermana Febe, diaconisa de la iglesia en Cencrea(B), 2 para que la reciban en el Señor de una manera digna(C) de los santos(D), y que la ayuden en cualquier asunto en que ella necesite de ustedes, porque ella también ha ayudado a muchos y aun a mí mismo.
3 Saluden a Priscila y a Aquila(E), mis colaboradores en Cristo Jesús(F), 4 los cuales expusieron su vida[a] por mí[b], a quienes no solo yo doy gracias, sino también todas las iglesias de los gentiles.
5 Saluden también a la iglesia que está en su casa(G). Saluden a mi querido hermano Epeneto, que es el primer convertido a Cristo(H) en[c] Asia[d](I). 6 Saluden a María, que ha trabajado mucho por ustedes. 7 Saluden a Andrónico y a Junias[e], mis parientes(J) y compañeros de prisión(K), que se destacan entre los apóstoles y quienes también vinieron a[f] Cristo(L) antes que yo.
8 Saluden a Amplias, mi querido hermano en el Señor. 9 Saluden a Urbano, nuestro colaborador en Cristo(M), y a mi querido hermano Estaquis. 10 Saluden a Apeles, el aprobado en Cristo(N). Saluden a los de la casa de Aristóbulo.
11 Saluden a Herodión, mi pariente(O). Saluden a los de la casa de Narciso, que son del[g] Señor. 12 Saluden a Trifena y a Trifosa, obreras del[h] Señor. Saluden a la querida hermana Pérsida, que ha trabajado mucho en el Señor. 13 Saluden a Rufo(P), escogido en el Señor, también a su madre y mía.
14 Saluden a Asíncrito, a Flegonte, a Hermes, a Patrobas, a Hermas, y a los hermanos con ellos. 15 Saluden a Filólogo y a Julia, a Nereo y a su hermana, y a Olimpas, y a todos los santos(Q) que están con ellos. 16 Salúdense los unos a los otros con un beso santo(R). Todas las iglesias de Cristo los saludan.
Advertencias contra las disensiones y la apostasía
17 Les ruego, hermanos, que vigilen a los que causan disensiones y tropiezos contra las enseñanzas que ustedes aprendieron(S), y que se aparten de ellos(T). 18 Porque los tales son esclavos, no de Cristo nuestro Señor(U), sino de sus propios apetitos[i](V), y por medio de palabras suaves y lisonjeras(W) engañan los corazones de los ingenuos. 19 Porque la noticia de la obediencia de ustedes se ha extendido a todos(X). Por tanto, me regocijo por ustedes, pero quiero que sean sabios para lo bueno e inocentes para lo malo(Y). 20 Y el Dios de paz(Z) aplastará pronto a Satanás(AA) debajo de los pies de ustedes.
La gracia de nuestro Señor Jesucristo sea con ustedes(AB).
Saludos y bendición final
21 Timoteo(AC), mi colaborador, los saluda, y también Lucio(AD), Jasón(AE) y Sosípater(AF), mis parientes(AG). 22 Yo, Tercio, que escribo esta carta, los saludo(AH) en el Señor. 23 Gayo(AI), hospedador mío y de toda la iglesia, los saluda. Erasto(AJ), el tesorero de la ciudad, los saluda, y el hermano Cuarto. 24 [j]La gracia de nuestro Señor Jesucristo sea con todos ustedes. Amén.
Doxología final
25 [k]Y a Aquel que es poderoso para afirmarlos conforme a mi evangelio y a la predicación de Jesucristo(AK), según la revelación del misterio que ha sido mantenido en secreto(AL) durante siglos sin fin[l](AM), 26 pero que ahora ha sido manifestado, y por las Escrituras de los profetas(AN), conforme al mandamiento del Dios eterno, se ha dado a conocer a todas las naciones para guiarlas a la obediencia de la fe(AO), 27 al único y sabio Dios, por medio de Jesucristo, sea la gloria para siempre(AP). Amén.

3 Greet Priscilla[c] and Aquila,(E) my co-workers(F) in Christ Jesus.(G) 4 They risked their lives for me. Not only I but all the churches of the Gentiles are grateful to them.
5 Greet also the church that meets at their house.(H)
Greet my dear friend Epenetus, who was the first convert(I) to Christ in the province of Asia.(J)
6 Greet Mary, who worked very hard for you.
7 Greet Andronicus and Junia, my fellow Jews(K) who have been in prison with me.(L) They are outstanding among[d] the apostles, and they were in Christ(M) before I was.
8 Greet Ampliatus, my dear friend in the Lord.
9 Greet Urbanus, our co-worker in Christ,(N) and my dear friend Stachys.

All the churches of Christ send greetings.
17 I urge you, brothers and sisters, to watch out for those who cause divisions and put obstacles in your way that are contrary to the teaching you have learned.(X) Keep away from them.(Y) 18 For such people are not serving our Lord Christ,(Z) but their own appetites.(AA) By smooth talk and flattery they deceive(AB) the minds of naive people. 19 Everyone has heard(AC) about your obedience, so I rejoice because of you; but I want you to be wise about what is good, and innocent about what is evil.(AD)
20 The God of peace(AE) will soon crush(AF) Satan(AG) under your feet.

Erastus,(AN) who is the city’s director of public works, and our brother Quartus send you their greetings. [24] [e]
25 Now to him who is able(AO) to establish you in accordance with my gospel,(AP) the message I proclaim about Jesus Christ, in keeping with the revelation of the mystery(AQ) hidden for long ages past, 26 but now revealed and made known through the prophetic writings(AR) by the command of the eternal God, so that all the Gentiles might come to the obedience that comes from[f] faith(AS)— 27 to the only wise God be glory forever through Jesus Christ! Amen.(AT)

16 I commend unto you Phebe our sister, which is a servant of the church which is at Cenchrea:

3 Greet Priscilla and Aquila my helpers in Christ Jesus:
4 Who have for my life laid down their own necks: unto whom not only I give thanks, but also all the churches of the Gentiles.
5 Likewise greet the church that is in their house. Salute my well-beloved Epaenetus, who is the firstfruits of Achaia unto Christ.

19 For your obedience is come abroad unto all men. I am glad therefore on your behalf: but yet I would have you wise unto that which is good, and simple concerning evil.

26 But now is made manifest, and by the scriptures of the prophets, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, made known to all nations for the obedience of faith:
27 To God only wise, be glory through Jesus Christ for ever. Amen.
