16:1 我對你們舉薦我們的姊妹非比；她是堅革哩教會中的女執事。
16:2 請你們為主接待她，合乎聖徒的體統。她在何事上要你們幫助，你們就幫助她；因她素來幫助許多人，也幫助了我。
16:3 問百基拉和亞居拉安。他們在基督耶穌裡與我同工，
16:4 也為我的命將自己的頸項置之度外。不但我感謝他們，就是外邦的眾教會也感謝他們。
16:5 又問在他們家中的教會安。問我所親愛的以拜尼土安；他在亞細亞是歸基督初結的果子。
16:6 又問馬利亞安；她為你們多受勞苦。
16:7 又問我親屬與我一同坐監的安多尼古和猶尼亞安；他們在使徒中是有名望的，也是比我先在基督裡。
16:8 又問我在主裡面所親愛的暗伯利安。
16:9 又問在基督裡與我們同工的耳巴奴，並我所親愛的士大古安。
16:10 又問在基督裡經過試驗的亞比利安。問亞利多布家裡的人安。
16:11 又問我親屬希羅天安。問拿其數家在主裡的人安。
16:12 又問為主勞苦的土非拿氏和土富撒氏安。問可親愛為主多受勞苦的彼息氏安。
16:13 又問在主蒙揀選的魯孚和他母親安；他的母親就是我的母親。
16:14 又問亞遜其土、弗勒干、黑米、八羅巴、黑馬，並與他們在一處的弟兄們安。
16:15 又問非羅羅古和猶利亞，尼利亞和他姊妹，同阿林巴並與他們在一處的眾聖徒安。
16:16 你們親嘴問安，彼此務要聖潔。基督的眾教會都問你們安。
16:17 弟兄們，那些離間你們、叫你們跌倒、背乎所學之道的人，我勸你們要留意躲避他們。
16:18 因為這樣的人不服事我們的主基督，只服事自己的肚腹，用花言巧語誘惑那些老實人的心。
16:19 你們的順服已經傳於眾人，所以我為你們歡喜；但我願意你們在善上聰明，在惡上愚拙。
16:20 賜平安的上帝快要將撒但踐踏在你們腳下。願我主耶穌基督的恩常和你們同在！
16:21 與我同工的提摩太，和我的親屬路求、耶孫、所西巴德，問你們安。
16:22 我這代筆寫信的德提，在主裡面問你們安。
16:23 那接待我、也接待全教會的該猶問你們安。
16:24 城內管銀庫的以拉都和兄弟括土問你們安。
16:25 惟有上帝能照我所傳的福音和所講的耶穌基督，並照永古隱藏不言的奧祕，堅固你們的心。
16:26 這奧祕如今顯明出來，而且按著永生上帝的命，藉眾先知的書指示萬國的民，使他們信服真道。
16:27 願榮耀，因耶穌基督，歸與獨一全智的上帝，直到永遠。阿們！
I commend to you our sister Phoebe, a deacon[a][b] of the church in Cenchreae. 2 I ask you to receive her in the Lord in a way worthy of his people 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, my co-workers in Christ Jesus. 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.
Greet my dear friend Epenetus, who was the first convert to Christ in the province of Asia.
6 Greet Mary, who worked very hard for you.
7 Greet Andronicus and Junia, my fellow Jews who have been in prison with me. They are outstanding among[d] the apostles, and they were in Christ before I was.
8 Greet Ampliatus, my dear friend in the Lord.
9 Greet Urbanus, our co-worker in Christ, and my dear friend Stachys.
10 Greet Apelles, whose fidelity to Christ has stood the test.
Greet those who belong to the household of Aristobulus.
11 Greet Herodion, my fellow Jew.
Greet those in the household 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, chosen 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 who are with them.
16 Greet one another with a holy kiss.
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. Keep away from them. 18 For such people are not serving our Lord Christ, but their own appetites. By smooth talk and flattery they deceive the minds of naive people. 19 Everyone has heard 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.
20 The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet.
The grace of our Lord Jesus be with you.
21 Timothy, my co-worker, sends his greetings to you, as do Lucius, Jason and Sosipater, my fellow Jews.
22 I, Tertius, who wrote down this letter, greet you in the Lord.
23 Gaius, whose hospitality I and the whole church here enjoy, sends you his greetings.
Erastus, 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 to establish you in accordance with my gospel, the message I proclaim about Jesus Christ, in keeping with the revelation of the mystery hidden for long ages past, 26 but now revealed and made known through the prophetic writings by the command of the eternal God, so that all the Gentiles might come to the obedience that comes from[f] faith— 27 to the only wise God be glory forever through Jesus Christ! Amen.
