16:1 I commend to you Phoibe our sister, which is a servant of the Assembly which is at Kegchreai:

16:2 That you receive her in Adonay, as becomes set apart ones, and that you assist her in whatsoever business she has need of you: for she has been an assistant of many, and of myself also.

16:3 Bid Shalom Priska and Akulas my helpers in ha Mashiach Yehoshua (יהושע):

16:4 Who have for my life laid down their own necks: to whom not only I give thanks, but also all the Assemblies of the Goyim.

16:5 Likewise [Bid Shalom] the Assembly that is in their house.

Bid Shalom to my well beloved Epainetos, who is the firstfruits of Achaia to ha Mashiach.

16:6 Bid Shalom to Miryam, who bestowed much labour on us.

16:7 Bid Shalom to Andronikos and Iounias, my kinsmen, and my fellowprisoners, who are of note among the shlichim, who also were in ha Mashiach before me.

16:8 Bid Shalom to Ampliatos my beloved in Adonay.

16:9 Bid Shalom to Ourbanos, our helper in ha Mashiach, and Stachus my beloved.

16:10 Bid Shalom to Apelles approved in ha Mashiach.

Bid Shalom to them which are of Aristoboulos' [household].

16:16 Bid Shalom to one another with a set apart kiss. The Assemblies of  Mashiach Bid Shalom to you.

16:17 Now I urge you, Achim (Brethren), mark them which cause division and offences contrary to the teaching which you have learned; and avoid them.

16:18 For they that are such serve not Adoneinu Yeshua (ישוע) ha Mashiach, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple.

16:19 For your obedience is come abroad to all [men]. I am glad therefore on your behalf: but yet I would have you wise to that which is good, and simple concerning evil.

16:20 And the Elohim (אלהים) of shalom shall cush ha satan under your feet shortly. The grace of Adoneinu Yeshua (ישוע) ha Mashiach [be] with you. Amein.

16:21 Timotheos my workfellow, and Loukios, and Iason, and Sosipater, my kinsmen, Bid Shalom to you.

16:22 I Tertios, who wrote [this] letter, Bid Shalom to you in Adonay.

16:23 Gaios mine host, and of the whole Assembly,

Bid Shalom to you. Erastos the chamberlain of the city Bid Shalom to you, and Kouartos a brother.

16:24 The grace of Adoneinu Yeshua (ישוע) ha Mashiach [be] with you all. Amein.

16:25 Now to him that is of power to stablish you according to my good news, and the proclaiming of Yeshua (ישוע) Mashiach, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began,

16:26 But now is made manifest, and by the scriptures of the Neviim, according to the commandment of the everlasting Elohim (אלהים), made known to all nations for the obedience of faith:

16:27 To Elohim (אלהים) only wise, [be] glory through Yeshua (ישוע) ha Mashiach for ever. Amein.
