1 It is my desire to say a good word for Phoebe, who is a servant of the church in Cenchreae:

2 That you will take her in kindly, after the way of the saints, as one who is the Lord's, and give her help in anything in which she may have need of you: because she has been a help to a great number and to myself.

3 Give my love to Prisca and Aquila, workers with me in Christ Jesus,

4 Who for my life put their necks in danger; to whom not only I but all the churches of the Gentiles are in debt:

5 And say a kind word to the church which is in their house. Give my love to my dear Epaenetus, who is the first fruit of Asia to Christ.

6 Give my love to Mary, who gave much care to you.

7 Give my love to Andronicus and Junia, my relations, who were in prison with me, who are noted among the Apostles, and who were in Christ before me.

8 Give my love to Ampliatus, who is dear to me in the Lord,

9 Give my love to Urbanus, a worker in Christ with us, and to my dear Stachys.

10 Give my love to Apelles, who has the approval of Christ. Say a kind word to those who are of the house of Aristobulus.

11 Give my love to Herodion, my relation. Say a kind word to those of the house of Narcissus, who are in the Lord.

12 Give my love to Tryphaena and Tryphosa, workers in the Lord. Give my love to my dear Persis, who did much work in the Lord.

13 Give my love to Rufus, one of the Lord's selection, and to his mother and mine.

14 Give my love to Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermes, Patrobas, Hermas, and the brothers who are with them.

15 Give my love to Philologus and Julia, Nereus and his sister, and Olympas, and all the saints who are with them.

16 Give one another a holy kiss. All the churches of Christ send their love to you.

17 Now, it is my desire, brothers, that you will take note of those who are causing division and trouble among you, quite against the teaching which was given to you: and keep away from them.

18 For such people are not servants of the Lord Christ, but of their stomachs; and by their smooth and well-said words the hearts of those who have no knowledge of evil are tricked.

19 For all have knowledge of how you do what you are ordered. For this reason I have joy in you, but it is my desire that you may be wise in what is good, and without knowledge of evil.

20 And the God of peace will be crushing Satan under your feet before long. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.

21 Timothy, who is working with me, sends his love to you, so do Lucius and Jason and Sosipater, my relations.

22 I, Tertius, who have done the writing of this letter, send love in the Lord.

23 Gaius, with whom I am living, whose house is open to all the church, sends his love, so does Erastus, the manager of the accounts of the town, and Quartus, the brother.

25 Now to him who is able to make you strong in agreement with the good news which I gave you and the preaching of Jesus Christ, in the light of the revelation of that secret which has been kept through times eternal,

26 But is now made clear; and by the writings of the prophets, by the order of the eternal God, the knowledge of it has been given to all the nations, so that they may come under the rule of the faith;

27 To the only wise God, through Jesus Christ, be the glory for ever. So be it.

1 Tena to matou tuahine, a Pipi, te tukua atu na e ahau ki a koutou, he kaimahi ia na te hahi i Kenekerea:

2 Hei manuhiri ia ma koutou i roto i te Ariki, kia rite ki ta te hunga tapu tikanga, a kia awhina koutou i a ia ki nga mea e matea e ia: he tokomaha hoki ana i atawhai ai, ahau ano hoki.

3 Oha atu ki a Pirihira raua ko Akuira, ki oku hoa mahi i roto i a Karaiti Ihu,

5 Oha atu ano ki te hahi i to raua whare. Oha atu ki a Epainetu, ki taku i aroha ai, ko ia hoki ta te Karaiti matamua o Ahia.

6 Oha atu ki a Meri, he nui tana mahi ki a matou.

7 Oha atu ki a Anaroniku raua ko Hunia, oku whanaunga, oku hoa herehere ano hoki, he ingoa nunui nei o raua i roto i nga apotoro, no mua nei i ahau to raua urunga ki a te Karaiti.

17 Na he tohe tenei naku ki a koutou, e oku teina, tirohia iho te hunga e mahi ana i nga wehewehenga, i nga tutukitanga waewae, he mea puta ke i te whakaakoranga i whakaakona ai koutou: tahuri atu i a ratou.

18 Ko te hunga pera hoki kahore i te mahi ki to tatou Ariki, ki a Ihu Karaiti, engari ki to ratou ake kopu: e tinihanga ana hoki ratou i nga ngakau o te hunga kinokore ki a ratou korero maeneene, ki a ratou kupu whakapaipai.

19 Kua paku hoki ki nga tangata katoa te rongo o to koutou ngohengohe. Koia ahau ka hari nei ki a koutou: e mea ana hoki ahau kia whai whakaaro koutou ki te pai, kia kuware ki te mea kino.

20 Na tera te Atua o te rangimarie e hohoro te kuru i a Hatana ki raro i o koutou waewae. Kia tau ki a koutou te aroha noa o to tatou Ariki, o Ihu Karaiti.

21 Tenei te oha atu nei ki a koutou a Timoti, toku hoa mahi a Ruhiu, a Hahona, a Hohipate, oku whanaunga.

22 Ko ahau tenei, ko Teretiu, ko te kaituhituhi o tenei pukapuka, te oha atu nei ki a koutou i roto i te Ariki.

23 Tenei te oha atu nei ki a koutou a Kaiu te kaiatawhai oku, o te hahi katoa. Tenei te oha atu nei a Eratu, kaitiaki o nga mea o te pa, raua ko te teina, ko Kuaratu.

24 Kia tau ki a koutou katoa te aroha noa o to tatou Ariki, o Ihu Karaiti. Amine.

25 Na he kaha nei te Atua ki te whakau i a koutou, i runga i nga ritenga o taku rongopai, o te kauwhautanga hoki o Ihu Karaiti, o te whakakitenga mai ano o te mea ngaro, kihai nei i rangona no te timatanga ra ano o te ao,

26 A kua whakamaramatia mai inaianei e nga karaipiture a nga poropiti, he mea whakarite mai na te Atua ora tonu, a whakapuakina mai ana ki nga tauiwi katoa kia ngohengohe ai ratou ki ta te whakapono:

27 Waiho atu i te Atua, ko ia nei anake te Mea matau, te kororia i roto i a Ihu Karaiti, ake ake, Amine.
