Colossians 4:7

5 ^aWalk in ^bwisdom toward those who are outside, ^credeeming the time.

6 Let your speech always be ^awith grace, ^bseasoned with salt, ^cthat you may know how you ought to answer each one.

Final Greetings

7 ^aTychicus, a beloved brother, faithful minister, and fellow servant in the Lord, will tell you all the news about me.

8 ^aI am sending him to you for this very purpose, that¹ he may know your circumstances and comfort your hearts,

9 with ^aOnesimus, a faithful and beloved brother, who is one of you. They will make known to you all things which are happening here.

10 ^aAristarchus my fellow prisoner greets you, with ^bMark the cousin of Barnabas (about whom you received instructions: if he comes to you, welcome him),

11 and Jesus who is called Justus. These are my only fellow workers for the kingdom of God who are of the circumcision; they have proved to be a comfort to me.

12 ^aEpaphras, who is one of you, a bondservant of Christ, greets you, always ^blaboring fervently for you in prayers, that you may stand ^cperfect and complete in all the will of God.

13 For I bear him witness that he has a great¹ zeal for you, and those who are in Laodicea, and those in Hierapolis.

14 ^aLuke the beloved physician and ^bDemas greet you.

15 Greet the brethren who are in Laodicea, and Nymphas and ^athe church that is in his house.

Closing Exhortations and Blessing

16 Now when ^athis epistle is read among you, see that it is read also in the church of the Laodiceans, and that you likewise read the epistle from Laodicea.
