1Masters, give your servants what is righteous and fair, knowing that you also have a Master in the heavens.

2Continue in prayer, watching therein, with thanksgiving,

3praying at the same time also for us, that Elohim would open to us a door for the word, to speak the secret of Messiah, for which I am also in chains,

4so that I make it clear, as I should speak.

5Walk in wisdom toward those who are outside, redeeming the time.

6Let your word always be with favour, seasoned with salt, so that you know how you ought to answer each one.

7Tuchikos, who is a beloved brother, a true servant, and a fellow servant in the Master, shall give you all the news about me.

8I am sending him to you for this purpose, to know your circumstances and to encourage your hearts,

9with Onesimos, a true and beloved brother, who is one of you. They shall let you know all the news here.

10Aristarchos my fellow prisoner greets you, with Mark the relative of Barnaḇah about whom you received instructions: if he comes to you, welcome him,

11also Yeshua who is called Justus. These are my only fellow workers for the reign of Elohim who are of the circumcision, who were to me a comfort.

12Epaphras, who is one of you, a servant of Messiah, greets you, always wrestling for you in prayers, so that you stand perfecta and complete in all the desire of Elohim.

13For I bear him witness that he has a deep concern for you, and for those who are in Laodikeia and those in Hierapolis.

14Luke the beloved physician and Demas greet you.

15Greet the brothers in Laodikeia, and Numpha and the assembly that is in his house.

16And when this letter is read among you, see that it is read also in the assembly of the Laodikeians, and that you likewise read the letter from Laodikeia.

17And say to Archippos, “See to the service which you have received in the Master, so that you complete it.”

18This greeting is in my own hand – Sha’ul. Remember my chains. Favour be with you. Amĕn.
