Having blotted out the handwriting against us by the decrees, which was hostile to us, - and hath taken away, the same, out of the midst, nailing it up to the cross:

putting up with one another and forgiving one another. If anyone should have a complaint against anyone, just as also the Lord forgave you, thus also you [do the same].

Continue in prayer, and watch in the same with thanksgiving;

praying at the same time for us also, that God may open to us a door of the word to speak the mystery of Christ, on account of which also I am bound,

in order that I may manifest the same, as it behooves me to speak.

Whom I have sent unto you for the same purpose, that he might know your estate, and comfort your hearts;

And when this letter has been made public among you, let the same be done in the church of Laodicea; and see that you have the letter from Laodicea.

And say to Archippus: be taking heed unto the ministry which thou hast accepted in the Lord, - that, the same, thou fulfil.
