Personal Greetings
16 I commend(A) to you our sister Phoebe, a deacon[a][b] of the church in Cenchreae.(B) 2 I ask you to receive her in the Lord(C) in a way worthy of his people(D) and to give her any help she may need from you, for she has been the benefactor of many people, including me.
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.
10 Greet Apelles, whose fidelity to Christ has stood the test.(O)
Greet those who belong to the household(P) of Aristobulus.
11 Greet Herodion, my fellow Jew.(Q)
Greet those in the household(R) of Narcissus who are in the Lord.
12 Greet Tryphena and Tryphosa, those women who work hard in the Lord.
Greet my dear friend Persis, another woman who has worked very hard in the Lord.
13 Greet Rufus,(S) chosen(T) in the Lord, and his mother, who has been a mother to me, too.
14 Greet Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermes, Patrobas, Hermas and the other brothers and sisters with them.
15 Greet Philologus, Julia, Nereus and his sister, and Olympas and all the Lord’s people(U) who are with them.(V)
16 Greet one another with a holy kiss.(W)
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.
The grace of our Lord Jesus be with you.(AH)
21 Timothy,(AI) my co-worker, sends his greetings to you, as do Lucius,(AJ) Jason(AK) and Sosipater, my fellow Jews.(AL)
22 I, Tertius, who wrote down this letter, greet you in the Lord.
23 Gaius,(AM) whose hospitality I and the whole church here enjoy, sends you his greetings.
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)

Lời Gửi Gắm Và Chào Thăm
16 Tôi gửi gắm chị Phê-bê của chúng tôi cho anh chị em; chị là nữ chấp sự của Hội Thánh tại Sơn-cơ-rê. 2 Xin anh chị em đón tiếp chị cách xứng đáng trong Chúa như tiếp đón các thánh đồ. Xin giúp đỡ chị khi chị có điều gì cần anh chị em giúp đỡ, vì chị cũng đã giúp đỡ nhiều người, kể cả tôi nữa.
3 Xin kính chào Bê-rít-sin và A-qui-la, hai bạn đồng lao của tôi trong Chúa Cứu Thế Giê-su. 4 Họ đã liều chết cứu mạng sống tôi, không phải chỉ có tôi cảm tạ họ mà tất cả các Hội Thánh của các dân tộc ngoại quốc cũng ghi ơn họ nữa.
5 Xin kính chào Hội Thánh họp tại nhà họ.
6 Kính chào Ê-bai-nết, người thân yêu của tôi, cũng là trái đầu mùa cho Chúa Cứu Thế trong vùng Tiểu Á. Kính chào bà Ma-ri, là người có công khó phục vụ anh chị em.
7 Kính chào An-trô-ni-cơ và Giu-nia, là bà con và bạn đồng tù với tôi, cũng là những người lỗi lạc giữa vòng các sứ đồ. Họ đã tin Chúa Cứu Thế trước tôi.
8 Kính chào Am-li-a, người thân yêu của tôi trong Chúa.
9 Kính chào U-rơ-ban, bạn đồng lao của tôi trong Chúa Cứu Thế và Ích-ta-chi, người thân yêu của tôi.
10 Kính chào A-be-lô, người được Chúa Cứu Thế chấp nhận.
Kính chào những người thuộc gia đình A-rích-tô-bu.
11 Kính chào Hê-rô-đi-ôn là họ hàng tôi.
Hãy chào gia đình Nát-xít là những người trong Chúa.
12 Kính chào Try-phe-nơ và Try-phô-sơ là hai người làm việc trong Chúa.

16 Hãy chào thăm nhau trong tình thân ái.[a]
Tất cả các Hội Thánh của Chúa Cứu Thế đều gửi lời chào anh chị em.
17 Thưa anh chị em, tôi khuyên anh chị em đề phòng những kẻ gây chia rẽ và gây vấp phạm, trái với giáo huấn mà anh chị em đã học; hãy lánh xa họ đi! 18 Vì những kẻ đó chẳng phục vụ Chúa Cứu Thế, Chúa chúng ta đâu, song phục vụ cái bụng họ và dùng những lời đường mật nịnh bợ để quyến rũ lòng người thật thà. 19 Mọi người đều rõ tinh thần vâng phục của anh chị em, vì thế tôi mừng cho anh chị em, mong anh chị em khôn ngoan về điều lành và tinh khiết về điều ác.
20 Đức Chúa Trời bình an sẽ sớm chà đạp quỷ Sa-tan dưới chân anh chị em. Nguyện xin ân sủng của Đức Giê-su, Chúa chúng ta, ở cùng anh chị em!

Lu-xi-út, Gia-sôn, Sô-si-pha-tê là bà con tôi kính chào anh chị em. 22 Tôi là Tẹt-tiu, người chép thư này, kính chào anh chị em trong Chúa. 23 Gai-út, người tiếp đãi tôi và cả Hội Thánh, kính chào anh chị em. 24 Ê-rát, trưởng ngân khố của thành phố này và anh em chúng ta là Qua-rơ-tu, kính chào anh chị em.
Lời Tạ Ơn
25 Vinh quang đời đời đều quy về Đấng có khả năng củng cố anh chị em theo Phúc Âm của tôi và sự truyền giảng Chúa Cứu Thế Giê-su cùng theo huyền nhiệm đã giấu kín từ mọi đời trước, 26 mà nay được khải thị qua các Kinh Tiên Tri, theo lệnh của Đức Chúa Trời hằng sống, nhằm giúp tất cả các dân tộc hiểu biết và đưa họ đến niềm tin vâng phục. 27 Ngài là Đức Chúa Trời khôn ngoan duy nhất, được tôn vinh qua Chúa Cứu Thế Giê-su đến đời đời. A-men.

Greeting Roman Saints
