Give my greeting to Prisca and Aquila, my fellow-workers in the Cause of Christ Jesus,

For we are God's fellow workers; you are God's harvest field, God's building.

Therefore, as God's fellow-workers, we also appeal to you not to receive his loving-kindness in vain.

Men of this stamp are false apostles, treacherous workers, disguising themselves as Apostles of Christ!

Recognizing the charge entrusted to me, James, Peter, and John, who were regarded as pillars of the Church, openly acknowledged Barnabas and me as fellow-workers, agreeing that we should go to the Gentiles, and they to the Jews.

Yes, and I ask you, my true comrade, to help them, remembering that they toiled by my side in spreading the Good News; and so, too, did Clement and my other fellow-workers, whose names are 'in the Book of Life.'

Beware of those 'dogs'! Beware of those mischievous workers! Beware of the men who mutilate themselves!

And Marcus, Aristarchus, Demas, and Luke, my fellow-workers, send theirs.

They could not lay hold of this answer before the people; and, in their wonder at his reply, they held their tongues.

Do not wonder at my telling you that you all need to be reborn.

For the Father loves his Son, and shows him everything that he is doing; and he will show him still greater things--so that you will be filled with wonder.

Do not wonder at this; for the time is coming when all who are in their graves will hear his voice,

'Look, you despisers, and wonder, and perish; for I am doing a deed in your days--a deed which, though told you in full, you will never believe'."

And no wonder; for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of Light.

Do not wonder, Brothers, if the world hates you.

Remain at that same house, and eat and drink whatever they offer you; for the worker is worth his wages. Do not keep changing from one house to another.

Not even with a bag for the journey, or a change of clothes, or sandals, or even a staff; for the worker is worth his food.

No more shall the music of harpers, or minstrels, or flute players, or trumpeters be heard in you, no more shall any worker, skilled in any art, be found in you; no more shall the sound of a mill be heard in you;

To Urban, our fellow-worker in the Cause of Christ, and to my dear friend Stachys;

Timothy, my fellow-worker, sends you his greetings, and Lucius, Jason, and Sosipater, my countrymen, send theirs.

Still I think it necessary to send Epaphroditus to you now, for he is my brother, fellow-worker, and fellow-soldier, and he was also your messenger to help me in my need.

I want you, on your part, to show deference to such men as these, as well as to every fellow laborer and earnest worker.

The words of Scripture are-- 'Thou shalt not muzzle the ox while it is treading out the grain.' and again-- 'The worker is worth his wages.'

To our dear friend and fellow-worker Philemon, to our sister Apphia, to our fellow-soldier Archippus; and to the Church that meets at Philemon's house;

And Jesus replied: "Pay to the Emperor what belongs to the Emperor, and to God what belongs to God." And they wondered at him.

They wondered at his answer, and left him alone and went away.

Meanwhile the people were watching for Zechariah, wondering at his remaining so long in the Temple.

Mary was much disturbed at his words, and was wondering to herself what such a greeting could mean,

While the child's father and mother were wondering at what was said about him,
