Final Instructions and Greetings
16 Now I (A)commend to you our sister Phoebe, who is a [a]servant of the church which is at (B)Cenchrea; 2 that you (C)receive her in the Lord in a manner worthy of the [b](D)saints, and that you help her in whatever matter she may have need of you; for she herself has also been a benefactor of many, [c]and of myself as well.
3 Greet (E)Prisca and Aquila, my fellow workers (F)in (G)Christ Jesus,
4 who for my life risked their own necks, to whom not only do I give thanks, but also all the churches of the Gentiles;
5 also greet (H)the church that is in their house.
Greet Epaenetus, my beloved, who is the (I)first convert to Christ from [d](J)Asia.
6 Greet Mary, who has labored much for you.
7 Greet Andronicus and [e]Junia, my (K)kinsmen and my (L)fellow prisoners, who are outstanding to the apostles, who also [f]were (M)in Christ before me.
8 Greet Ampliatus, my beloved in the Lord.
9 Greet Urbanus, our fellow worker (N)in Christ, and Stachys my beloved.
10 Greet Apelles, the approved (O)in Christ. Greet those who are of the household of Aristobulus.
11 Greet Herodion, my (P)kinsman.
Greet those of the household of Narcissus, who are in the Lord.
12 Greet Tryphaena and Tryphosa, laborers in the Lord.
Greet Persis the beloved, who labored much in the Lord.
13 Greet (Q)Rufus, a choice man in the Lord, also his mother and mine.
14 Greet Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermes, Patrobas, Hermas and the brothers with them.
15 Greet Philologus and Julia, Nereus and his sister, and Olympas, and all (R)the [g]saints who are with them.

All the churches of Christ greet you.
17 Now I urge you, brothers, to keep your eye on those who cause dissensions and stumblings (T)contrary to the teaching which you learned, and (U)turn away from them. 18 For such men are (V)slaves, not of our Lord Christ but of (W)their own [h]stomach, and by their (X)smooth and flattering speech they deceive the hearts of the unsuspecting. 19 For the report of your obedience (Y)has reached to all. Therefore I am rejoicing over you, but (Z)I want you to be wise in what is good and innocent in what is evil. 20 (AA)And the God of peace will soon crush (AB)Satan under your feet.

25 (AL)Now to Him who is able to strengthen you (AM)according to my gospel and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of (AN)the mystery which has been kept secret for (AO)long ages past, 26 but now is manifested, and by (AP)the Scriptures of the prophets, according to the commandment of the eternal God, has been made known to all the Gentiles, leading to (AQ)obedience of faith; 27 to the only wise God, through Jesus Christ, (AR)be the glory forever. Amen.

16 I commend unto you Phebe our sister, which is a servant of the church which is at Cenchrea:
2 That ye receive her in the Lord, as becometh saints, and that ye assist her in whatsoever business she hath need of you: for she hath been a succourer of many, and of myself also.
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.
6 Greet Mary, who bestowed much labour on us.
7 Salute Andronicus and Junia, my kinsmen, and my fellow-prisoners, who are of note among the apostles, who also were in Christ before me.
8 Greet Amplias my beloved in the Lord.
9 Salute Urbane, our helper in Christ, and Stachys my beloved.
10 Salute Apelles approved in Christ. Salute them which are of Aristobulus' household.
11 Salute Herodion my kinsman. Greet them that be of the household of Narcissus, which are in the Lord.
12 Salute Tryphena and Tryphosa, who labour in the Lord. Salute the beloved Persis, which laboured much in the Lord.
13 Salute Rufus chosen in the Lord, and his mother and mine.

16 Salute one another with an holy kiss. The churches of Christ salute you.
17 Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them.
18 For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple.
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.
20 And the God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.
21 Timotheus my workfellow, and Lucius, and Jason, and Sosipater, my kinsmen, salute you.
22 I Tertius, who wrote this epistle, salute you in the Lord.

24 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.

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.

Mga Pagbati
16 Itinatagubilin ko sa inyo ang kapatid nating si Phoebe, na isang lingkod ng iglesya sa Cencrea. 2 Tanggapin ninyo siya sa Panginoon, tulad ng pagtanggap na nararapat sa mga kapatid.[a] Tulungan ninyo siya sa mga kakailanganin niya sa inyo, sapagkat marami siyang natulungan at isa na ako roon.
3 Batiin (A) ninyo sina Prisca at Aquila na mga kamanggagawa ko kay Cristo Jesus. 4 Inilagay nila ang kanilang buhay sa panganib dahil sa akin. Hindi lamang ako ang nagpapasalamat sa kanila kundi pati lahat ng mga iglesya ng mga Hentil. 5 Batiin din ninyo ang iglesyang nagtitipon sa bahay nila. Batiin din ninyo ang mahal kong si Epeneto, ang unang sumampalataya kay Cristo sa Asia. 6 Batiin ninyo si Maria, na malaki ang hirap para sa inyo. 7 Batiin ninyo sina Andronico at Junias, mga kamag-anak ko at mga nakasama ko sa bilangguan. Kilala silang kasama ng mga apostol at naunang naging Cristiano kaysa akin. 8 Batiin ninyo si Ampliato na aking minamahal sa Panginoon. 9 Batiin ninyo si Urbano na aming kamanggagawa kay Cristo, gayundin si Estaquis na aking minamahal. 10 Batiin ninyo si Apeles na subok ang katapatan kay Cristo. Batiin ninyo ang sambahayan ni Aristobulo. 11 Batiin ninyo ang kamag-anak kong si Herodion. Batiin ninyo ang mga nasa Panginoon sa sambahayan ni Narciso. 12 Batiin ninyo sina Trifena at Trifosa, masisikap na naglilingkod sa Panginoon. Batiin ninyo ang mahal kong si Persida, na marami nang pagsisikap para sa Panginoon. 13 Batiin ninyo (B) si Rufo, ang hinirang ng Panginoon, at ang kanyang ina, na para ko na ring ina. 14 Batiin ninyo sina Asincrito, Flegonte, Hermes, Patrobas, Hermas, at ang mga kapatid na kasama nila. 15 Batiin ninyo sina Filologo, Julia, at Nereo at ang kanyang kapatid na babae, gayundin si Olimpas, at sa lahat ng mga banal na kasama nila. 16 Magbatian kayo ng banal na halik. Bumabati sa inyo ang lahat ng mga iglesya ni Cristo.
Mga Dagdag na Tagubilin
17 Ipinakikiusap ko sa inyo, mga kapatid, mag-ingat kayo sa mga pinagmumulan ng pagkakampi-kampi at sa mga sanhi ng pagkatisod, na salungat sa aral na inyong natutuhan. Layuan ninyo sila. 18 Sapagkat ang mga katulad nila ay hindi kay Cristong ating Panginoon na pinaglilingkuran kundi sa sarili nilang tiyan. Dinadaya nila ang mga puso ng mga walang muwang sa pamamagitan ng kanilang pananalita na maganda sa pandinig at may mapagkunwaring papuri. 19 Labis akong nagagalak sapagkat napabalita sa lahat ng tao ang inyong pagsunod. Gayunman, nais kong maging matalino kayo tungkol sa mga bagay na mabuti, at maging walang muwang sa masama. 20 At ang Diyos ng kapayapaan ay malapit nang dumurog kay Satanas sa ilalim ng inyong mga paa.
Pagpalain kayo ng ating Panginoong Jesus.[b]
21 Binabati (C) kayo ni Timoteo na aking kamanggagawa, gayundin ng mga kamag-anak kong sina Lucio, Jason at Sosipatro. 22 Akong si Tercio, na tagasulat ng liham na ito, ay bumabati rin sa inyo sa pangalan ng Panginoon. 23 Binabati (D) kayo ni Gaio na tinutuluyan ko, at ng buong iglesya. Binabati kayo ni Erasto na ingat-yaman ng lungsod, at ng kapatid na si Cuarto. 24 [Sumainyong lahat ang biyaya ng ating Panginoong Jesu-Cristo. Amen.][c]
25 At ngayon, sa Diyos na makapagpapalakas sa inyo sa pamamagitan ng ebanghelyong aking ipinangangaral, at ng mensaheng hatid ni Jesu-Cristo ayon sa pagkahayag sa hiwagang ikinubli sa loob ng napakahabang panahon, 26 ngunit sa utos ng walang hanggang Diyos ay nahayag na ngayon at ipinakilala sa lahat ng mga bansa upang sila'y sumunod sa pananampalataya, sa pamamagitan ng mga kasulatan ng mga propeta— 27 sa Diyos na tanging marunong, sumakanya nawa ang kaluwalhatian magpakailanman sa pamamagitan ni Jesu-Cristo! Amen.
