< Romans 16 >

1 I commend to you Phoebe our sister, who is a servant of the church that is in Cenchrea,
Συνίστημι δὲ ὑμῖν Φοίβην τὴν ἀδελφὴν ἡμῶν, οὖσαν ⸀καὶδιάκονον τῆς ἐκκλησίας τῆς ἐν Κεγχρεαῖς,
2 in order that you may receive her in the Lord. Do this in a manner worthy of the saints, and stand by her in whatever matter she may have need of you. For she herself as well has become a helper of many, and of myself as well.
ἵνα ⸂αὐτὴν προσδέξησθε ἐν κυρίῳ ἀξίως τῶν ἁγίων, καὶ παραστῆτε αὐτῇ ἐν ᾧ ἂν ὑμῶν χρῄζῃ πράγματι, καὶ γὰρ αὐτὴ προστάτις πολλῶν ἐγενήθη καὶ ⸂ἐμοῦ αὐτοῦ.
3 Greet Priscilla and Aquila, my fellow workers in Christ Jesus,
Ἀσπάσασθε Πρίσκαν καὶ Ἀκύλαν τοὺς συνεργούς μου ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ,
4 who for my life risked their own lives. I give thanks to them, and not only I, but also all the churches of the Gentiles.
οἵτινες ὑπὲρ τῆς ψυχῆς μου τὸν ἑαυτῶν τράχηλον ὑπέθηκαν, οἷς οὐκ ἐγὼ μόνος εὐχαριστῶ ἀλλὰ καὶ πᾶσαι αἱ ἐκκλησίαι τῶν ἐθνῶν,
5 Greet the church that is in their house. Greet Epaenetus my beloved, who is the firstfruit of Asia to Christ.
καὶ τὴν κατʼ οἶκον αὐτῶν ἐκκλησίαν. ἀσπάσασθε Ἐπαίνετον τὸν ἀγαπητόν μου, ὅς ἐστιν ἀπαρχὴ τῆς ⸀Ἀσίαςεἰς Χριστόν.
6 Greet Mary, who has worked hard for you.
ἀσπάσασθε ⸀Μαριάμ ἥτις πολλὰ ἐκοπίασεν εἰς ⸀ὑμᾶς
7 Greet Andronicus and Junias, my kinsmen, and my fellow prisoners. They are prominent among the apostles, who also were in Christ before me.
ἀσπάσασθε Ἀνδρόνικον καὶ ⸀Ἰουνίαντοὺς συγγενεῖς μου καὶ συναιχμαλώτους μου, οἵτινές εἰσιν ἐπίσημοι ἐν τοῖς ἀποστόλοις, οἳ καὶ πρὸ ἐμοῦ ⸀γέγονανἐν Χριστῷ.
8 Greet Ampliatus, my beloved in the Lord.
ἀσπάσασθε ⸀Ἀμπλιᾶτοντὸν ἀγαπητόν μου ἐν κυρίῳ.
9 Greet Urbanus, our fellow worker in Christ, and Stachys, my beloved.
ἀσπάσασθε Οὐρβανὸν τὸν συνεργὸν ἡμῶν ἐν Χριστῷ καὶ Στάχυν τὸν ἀγαπητόν μου.
10 Greet Apelles, the approved in Christ. Greet those who are of the household of Aristobulus.
ἀσπάσασθε Ἀπελλῆν τὸν δόκιμον ἐν Χριστῷ. ἀσπάσασθε τοὺς ἐκ τῶν Ἀριστοβούλου.
11 Greet Herodion, my kinsman. Greet those of the household of Narcissus, who are in the Lord.
ἀσπάσασθε Ἡρῳδίωνα τὸν ⸀συγγενῆμου. ἀσπάσασθε τοὺς ἐκ τῶν Ναρκίσσου τοὺς ὄντας ἐν κυρίῳ.
12 Greet Tryphaena and Tryphosa, who work hard in the Lord. Greet Persis the beloved, who has worked much in the Lord.
ἀσπάσασθε Τρύφαιναν καὶ Τρυφῶσαν τὰς κοπιώσας ἐν κυρίῳ. ἀσπάσασθε Περσίδα τὴν ἀγαπητήν, ἥτις πολλὰ ἐκοπίασεν ἐν κυρίῳ.
13 Greet Rufus, chosen in the Lord, and his mother and mine.
ἀσπάσασθε Ῥοῦφον τὸν ἐκλεκτὸν ἐν κυρίῳ καὶ τὴν μητέρα αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐμοῦ.
14 Greet Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermes, Patrobas, Hermas, and the brothers who are with them.
ἀσπάσασθε Ἀσύγκριτον, Φλέγοντα, ⸂Ἑρμῆν, Πατροβᾶν, Ἑρμᾶν⸃ καὶ τοὺς σὺν αὐτοῖς ἀδελφούς.
15 Greet Philologus and Julia, Nereus and his sister, and Olympas, and all the believers who are with them.
ἀσπάσασθε Φιλόλογον καὶ Ἰουλίαν, Νηρέα καὶ τὴν ἀδελφὴν αὐτοῦ, καὶ Ὀλυμπᾶν καὶ τοὺς σὺν αὐτοῖς πάντας ἁγίους.
16 Greet one another with a holy kiss. All the churches of Christ greet you.
Ἀσπάσασθε ἀλλήλους ἐν φιλήματι ἁγίῳ. Ἀσπάζονται ὑμᾶς αἱ ἐκκλησίαι ⸀πᾶσαιτοῦ Χριστοῦ.
17 Now I urge you, brothers, to think about those who are causing the divisions and stumbling. They are going beyond the teaching that you have learned. Turn away from them.
Παρακαλῶ δὲ ὑμᾶς, ἀδελφοί, σκοπεῖν τοὺς τὰς διχοστασίας καὶ τὰ σκάνδαλα παρὰ τὴν διδαχὴν ἣν ὑμεῖς ἐμάθετε ποιοῦντας, καὶ ⸀ἐκκλίνετεἀπʼ αὐτῶν·
18 For people such as these do not serve our Lord Christ, but their own stomach. By their smooth and flattering speech they deceive the hearts of the innocent.
οἱ γὰρ τοιοῦτοι τῷ κυρίῳ ⸀ἡμῶνΧριστῷ οὐ δουλεύουσιν ἀλλὰ τῇ ἑαυτῶν κοιλίᾳ, καὶ διὰ τῆς χρηστολογίας καὶ εὐλογίας ἐξαπατῶσι τὰς καρδίας τῶν ἀκάκων.
19 For your example of obedience reaches everyone. I rejoice, therefore, over you, but I want you to be wise as to that which is good, and innocent to that which is evil.
ἡ γὰρ ὑμῶν ὑπακοὴ εἰς πάντας ἀφίκετο· ⸂ἐφʼ ὑμῖν οὖν χαίρω, θέλω δὲ ὑμᾶς ⸀σοφοὺςεἶναι εἰς τὸ ἀγαθόν, ἀκεραίους δὲ εἰς τὸ κακόν.
20 The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet. May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
ὁ δὲ θεὸς τῆς εἰρήνης συντρίψει τὸν Σατανᾶν ὑπὸ τοὺς πόδας ὑμῶν ἐν τάχει. ἡ χάρις τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ ⸀Χριστοῦμεθʼ ὑμῶν.
21 Timothy, my fellow worker, greets you, and Lucius, Jason, and Sosipater, my kinsmen.
⸀Ἀσπάζεταιὑμᾶς Τιμόθεος ὁ συνεργός μου, καὶ Λούκιος καὶ Ἰάσων καὶ Σωσίπατρος οἱ συγγενεῖς μου.
22 I, Tertius, who write this epistle down, greet you in the Lord.
ἀσπάζομαι ὑμᾶς ἐγὼ Τέρτιος ὁ γράψας τὴν ἐπιστολὴν ἐν κυρίῳ.
23 Gaius, the host for me and for the whole church, greets you. Erastus, the treasurer of the city, greets you, with Quartus the brother.
ἀσπάζεται ὑμᾶς Γάϊος ὁ ξένος μου καὶ ⸂ὅλης τῆς ἐκκλησίας. ἀσπάζεται ὑμᾶς Ἔραστος ὁ οἰκονόμος τῆς πόλεως καὶ Κούαρτος ὁ ἀδελφός.
⸂Ἡ χάρις τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ μετὰ πάντων ὑμῶν⸃ ⸀Ἀμήν
25 Now to him who is able to make you stand according to my gospel and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery that had been kept secret for long ages, (aiōnios g166)
26 but now has been revealed and made known through the prophetic writings to all nations, by the command of the eternal God, to bring about the obedience of faith. (aiōnios g166)
27 To the only wise God, through Jesus Christ, be glory forever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
