Romans 16:17-20
Legacy Standard Bible
17 Now I urge you, brothers, to keep your eye on those who cause dissensions and stumblings (A)contrary to the teaching which you learned, and (B)turn away from them. 18 For such men are (C)slaves, not of our Lord Christ but of (D)their own [a]stomach, and by their (E)smooth and flattering speech they deceive the hearts of the unsuspecting. 19 For the report of your obedience (F)has reached to all. Therefore I am rejoicing over you, but (G)I want you to be wise in what is good and innocent in what is evil. 20 (H)And the God of peace will soon crush (I)Satan under your feet.
(J)The grace of our Lord Jesus be with you.

Romans 16:17-20
Evangelical Heritage Version
17 But I urge you, brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and offenses contrary to the teaching that you learned, and keep away from them. 18 For such people are not serving Christ our Lord but their own appetites.[a] By smooth talk and flattery, they seduce the hearts of the unsuspecting.
19 Your obedience has become known to everyone, so I am very joyful about you. But I want you to continue to be wise about what is good, and innocent about what is evil. 20 The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
