Colossians 4

MKJV^{(i) 1} Masters, give to your slaves what is just and equal, knowing that you also have a Master in Heaven. ² Continue in prayer and watch in it with thanksgiving, ³ praying together about us also, that God may open to us a door of the Word, to speak the mystery of Christ, for which I also have been bound, ⁴ that I may make it clear, as I ought to speak. ⁵ Walk in wisdom toward those on the outside, redeeming the time. ⁶ Let your speech be always with grace, having been seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer each one. ⁷ Tychicus, the beloved brother and faithful minister and fellow-servant in the Lord, will make known to you all things about me. ⁸ I sent him to you for this very purpose, that he might know the things about you, and that he might comfort your hearts, ⁹ along with Onesimus, a faithful and beloved brother, who is one of you. They shall make known to you all things here. ¹⁰ Aristarchus my fellow prisoner greets you, and Mark, the cousin of Barnabas (regarding whom you received commandments; if he comes to you, receive him), ¹¹ and greetings from Jesus, who is called Justus, those being of the circumcision. These alone are my fellow-workers for the kingdom of God, who became a comfort to me. ¹² Epaphras greets you, he being of you, a servant of Christ, always laboring fervently for you in prayers, that you may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God. ¹³ For I bear him record that he has a great zeal for you and for those who are in Laodicea and those in Hierapolis. ¹⁴ Luke, the beloved physician, and Demas, greet you. ¹⁵ Greet the brothers who are in Laodicea, and Nymphas, and the church in his house. ¹⁶ And when this letter is read before you, cause that it be read also in the church of the Laodiceans, and that you also read the letter of Laodicea. ¹⁷ And say to Archippus, Take heed to the ministry which you have received in the Lord, that you fulfill it. ¹⁸ The salutation of Paul, by my own hand. Remember my bonds. Grace be with you. Amen.
