3Greete Priscilla and Aquila my helpers in Christe Iesu:

5Lykewyse Avoid Divisions 17Nowe I beseche you brethren, marke them whiche cause deuision, & geue occasions of euyll, contrarie to the doctrine whiche ye haue learned, and auoyde them.
18For they that are suche, serue not the Lorde Iesus Christe, but their owne belly, and with sweete and flatteryng wordes deceaue the heartes of the innocentes.
19For your obedience is gone abrode vnto al men. I am glad therfore no doubt, of you: But yet I would haue you wise vnto that whiche is good, & simple concernyng euyll.
20The God of peace shall treade Satan vnder your feete shortly. The grace of our Lorde Iesus Christe be with you. Greetings from Paul’s Fellow Workers 21Timotheus my workfelowe, and Lucius, and Iason, & Sosipater my kinsemen, salute you.
