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.
16 (S)Greet one another with a holy kiss.
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.
(AC)The grace of our Lord Jesus be with you.
21 (AD)Timothy my fellow worker greets you, and so do (AE)Lucius and (AF)Jason and (AG)Sosipater, my (AH)kinsmen.
22 I, Tertius, who (AI)wrote this letter, greet you in the Lord.
23 (AJ)Gaius, host to me and to the whole church, greets you. (AK)Erastus, the city treasurer greets you, and Quartus, the brother. 24 [i][The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.]
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.

Saludos personales
16 Les recomiendo a nuestra hermana Febe, diaconisa de la iglesia en Cencrea. 2 Les pido que la reciban en el Señor, como merecen ser recibidos los santos, y que la ayuden en cualquier cosa que necesite de ustedes, porque ha ayudado a muchos, y también a mí mismo.
3 Saluden a Priscila y a Aquila,(A) mis colaboradores en Cristo Jesús, 4 que arriesgaron su vida por mí. Tanto yo como todas las iglesias de los no judíos les estamos muy agradecidos. 5 Saluden también a la iglesia de su casa. Saluden a mi amado hermano Epeneto, que fue el primer convertido a Cristo en Acaya. 6 Saluden a María, que tanto ha trabajado entre ustedes. 7 Saluden a Andrónico y a Junias, mis parientes y compañeros de prisiones; ellos son muy estimados entre los apóstoles, y se convirtieron a Cristo antes que yo. 8 Saluden a Amplias, a quien amo en el Señor. 9 Saluden a Urbano, nuestro colaborador en Cristo Jesús, y a mi amado hermano Estaquis. 10 Saluden a Apeles, un auténtico cristiano. Saluden a los de la casa de Aristóbulo. 11 Saluden a Herodión, mi pariente, y a los de la casa de Narciso, quienes están en el Señor. 12 Saluden a Trifena y a Trifosa, las cuales trabajan en el Señor. Saluden a la amada Pérsida, la cual ha trabajado mucho en el Señor. 13 Saluden a Rufo,(B) escogido en el Señor, y a su madre, que es también la mía. 14 Saluden a Asíncrito, Flegonte, Hermas, Patrobas, Hermes y los hermanos que están con ellos. 15 Saluden a Filólogo y Julia, a Nereo y a su hermana, a Olimpas y a todos los santos que están con ellos. 16 Salúdense unos a otros con un beso santo. Todas las iglesias en Cristo los saludan.
17 Pero les ruego, hermanos, que se cuiden de los que causan divisiones y tropiezos en contra de la enseñanza que ustedes han recibido, y que se aparten de ellos. 18 Porque tales personas no sirven a nuestro Señor Jesucristo, sino a su propio vientre, y con palabras suaves y lisonjeras engañan al corazón de los ingenuos. 19 La obediencia de ustedes ha llegado a ser bien conocida por todos, lo que me llena de alegría por ustedes; pero quiero que sean sabios para el bien, e ingenuos para el mal. 20 Muy pronto el Dios de paz aplastará a Satanás bajo los pies de ustedes. Que la gracia de nuestro Señor Jesucristo sea con ustedes.
21 Reciban saludos de mi colaborador Timoteo(C) y de Lucio, Jasón y Sosípater, mis parientes.
22 Yo, Tercio, que escribí la carta, los saludo en el Señor.
23 Los saluda Gayo,(D) que nos ha hospedado a mí y a toda la iglesia. Los saluda Erasto,(E) el tesorero de la ciudad, y el hermano Cuarto.
24 Que la gracia de nuestro Señor Jesucristo sea con todos ustedes. Amén.
Doxología final
25 Y al que puede fortalecerlos conforme a mi evangelio y a la predicación de Jesucristo, según la revelación del misterio que se ha mantenido oculto desde tiempos eternos, 26 pero que ahora ha sido revelado por medio de las Escrituras de los profetas, y que de acuerdo al mandamiento del Dios eterno se ha dado a conocer a todas las naciones para que obedezcan a la fe, 27 al único y sabio Dios, sea la gloria mediante Jesucristo para siempre. Amén.

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.

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.
