Revised Common Lectionary (Semicontinuous)
Closing Remarks And Greetings:
I Commend Phoebe To You; Help Her
16 Now I commend to you our sister Phoebe[a]— she being also a servant[b] of the church in Cenchrea[c]— 2 in order that you may receive her in the Lord worthily of the saints, and may stand-by[d] her in whatever matter she may be having-need of you. For she herself indeed became a benefactor[e] of many, and of me myself.
