Romiyim (Romans) 16

1And I commend to you Phoebe our sister, who is a servant of the assembly in Kenḥrea,
2that you receive her in יהוה, worthy of the set-apart ones, and assist her in whatever matter she has need of you. For she has been a great help to many, including me.
3Greet Priscilla and Aqulas, my fellow workers in Messiah יהושע,
4who risked their own necks for my life, to whom not only I give thanks, but also all the assemblies of the nations,
5and the assembly that is in their house. Greet my beloved Epainetos, who is the first-fruits of Achaia to Messiah.
6Greet Miryam, who worked very hard for us.
7Greet Andronikos and Junias, my relatives and my fellow prisoners, who are eminent among the emissaries, who also were in Messiah before me.
8Greet Amplias, my beloved in יהוה.
9Greet Urbanus, our fellow worker in Messiah, and Stachus, my beloved.
10Greet Apelles, the approved in Messiah. Greet those who are of Aristobulos.
11Greet Herodion, my relative. Greet those who are of Narcissus who are in יהוה.
12Greet Truphaina and Truphosa, who work in יהוה. Greet the beloved Persis, who worked very hard in יהוה.
13Greet Rufus, chosen in יהוה and his mother and mine.
14Greet Asugritos, Phlegon, Hermas, Patrobas, Hermes, and the brothers who are with them.
15Greet Philologos and Julia, Nereus and his sister, and Olumpas, and all the set-apart ones who are with them.
16Greet one another with a set-apart kiss. The assemblies of Messiah greet you.
17Now I call upon you, brothers, watch out for those who cause divisions and stumbling, contrary to the teaching which you learned, and turn away from them.
18For such ones do not serve our Master יהושע Messiah, but their own stomach, and by smooth words and flattering speech they deceive the hearts of the innocent.
19Your obedience, indeed, is reported to all. Therefore I rejoice concerning you, but I wish you to be wise indeed as to the good, and simple toward the evil.
20And the Elohim of peace shall crush Satan under your feet shortly. The favour of our Master יהושע Messiah be with you. Amĕn.
21Timotiyos, my fellow worker, and Lucius, and Jason, and Sosipater, my relatives, greet you.
22I, Tertius, who wrote this letter, greet you in יהוה.
23Gaios, the host of all the assembly and me, greets you. Ěrastos, the treasurer of the city, greets you, and Quartus, a brother.
24The favour of our Master יהושע Messiah be with you all. Amĕn.
25And to Him who is able to establish you according to my Good News and the preaching of יהושע Messiah, according to the revelation of the secret which was kept silent since times of old,
26but now has been made manifest, and by the prophetic Scriptures has been made known to all nations, according to the command of the everlasting Elohim, for belief-obedience.
27To Elohim, wise alone, be the esteem, through יהושע Messiah forever. Amĕn.

Personal Greetings
1I recommend to you our sister Phoebe, who serves the church at Cenchreae. 2Receive her in the Lord's name, as God's people should, and give her any help she may need from you; for she herself has been a good friend to many people and also to me.

Acts 18.2
I send greetings to Priscilla and Aquila, my fellow-workers in the service of Christ Jesus; 4they risked their lives for me. I am grateful to them — not only I, but all the Gentile churches as well. 5Greetings also to the church that meets in their house.
Greetings to my dear friend Epaenetus, who was the first in the province of Asia to believe in Christ. 6Greetings to Mary, who has worked so hard for you. 7Greetings also to Andronicus and Junia,#16.7 Junia; or Junias; some manuscripts have Julia. fellow-Jews who were in prison with me; they are well known among the apostles, and they became Christians before I did.

Final Instructions
17I urge you, my brothers and sisters: watch out for those who cause divisions and upset people's faith and go against the teaching which you have received. Keep away from them! 18For those who do such things are not serving Christ our Lord, but their own appetites. By their fine words and flattering speech they deceive innocent people. 19Everyone has heard of your loyalty to the gospel, and for this reason I am happy about you. I want you to be wise about what is good, but innocent in what is evil. 20And God, our source of peace, will soon crush Satan under your feet.
The grace of our Lord Jesus be with you.#16.20 Some manuscripts omit this sentence.

Concluding Prayer of Praise
25Let us give glory to God! He is able to make you stand firm in your faith, according to the Good News I preach about Jesus Christ and according to the revelation of the secret truth which was hidden for long ages in the past. 26Now, however, that truth has been brought out into the open through the writings of the prophets; and by the command of the eternal God it is made known to all nations, so that all may believe and obey.
27To the only God, who alone is all-wise, be glory through Jesus Christ for ever! Amen.#16.27 Some manuscripts have verses 25–27 here and after 14.23; others have them only after 14.23; one has them after 15.33.
