For I would have you know how great a contest I am waging for you and the brethren in Laodicea, and for all who have never seen my face.

For I can testify to his deep interest in you and in those in Laodicea and Hierapolis.

Salute the brothers in Laodicea; Nympha also, and the church which meets at her house.

And when this letter has been read to you, see that it is read also in the church of Laodiceans, and that you also read the letter from Laodicea.
