12 And aTychicus I have sent to Ephesus.
13 Bring the cloak that I left with Carpus at Troas when you come—and the books, especially the parchments.
14 aAlexander the coppersmith did me much harm. May the Lord repay him according to his works.
15 You also must beware of him, for he has greatly resisted our words.
16 At my first defense no one stood with me, but all forsook me. aMay it not be charged against them.
The Lord Is Faithful
17 aBut the Lord stood with me and strengthened me, bso that the message might be preached fully through me, and that all the Gentiles might hear. Also I was delivered cout of the mouth of the lion.
18 aAnd the Lord will deliver me from every evil work and preserve me for His heavenly kingdom. bTo Him be glory forever and ever. Amen!
Come Before Winter
19 Greet aPrisca and Aquila, and the household of bOnesiphorus.
20 aErastus stayed in Corinth, but bTrophimus I have left in Miletus sick.
