Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timothy our brother,

We give thanks to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you,

since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and the love which you have for all the saints;

Therefore as you have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him,

Whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through Him to God the Father.

and also Jesus who is called Justus; these are the only fellow workers for the kingdom of God who are from the circumcision, and they have proved to be an encouragement to me.

Epaphras, who is one of your number, a bondslave of Jesus Christ, sends you his greetings, always laboring earnestly for you in his prayers, that you may stand perfect and fully assured in all the will of God.
