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.

Concluding Exhortations
17 Now I exhort you, brothers, to look out for those who cause dissensions and temptations contrary to the teaching which you learned, and stay away from them. 18 For such people do not serve our Lord Christ, but their own stomach, and by smooth speech and flattery they deceive the hearts of the unsuspecting. 19 For the report of your obedience has reached to all; therefore I am rejoicing over you, and I want you to be wise toward what is good, but innocent toward what is evil. 20 And in a short time the God of peace will crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ[a] be with you.
