It is a sure word, that "If we have died with him, we shall live with him,

if we endure, then we shall reign with him, if we disown him, then he shall disown us,

to make the man of God proficient and equip him for good work of every kind.

Luke is the only one who is with me. Pick up Mark and bring him along with you, for he is of great use in helping me.

Alexander the blacksmith has done me a lot of harm: the Lord will pay him back for what he has done (beware of him),

The Lord will rescue me from every assault of evil, he will bring me safe to his own realm in heaven. To him be glory for ever and ever! Amen.
