1Now I commend to you⁺ Phoebe our sister, being also a servant† of the church in Cenchrea, 2so that you⁺ might receive her in the Lord worthily of the saints, and you⁺ might assist her in whatever matter she may need of you⁺. For she also has been a patroness of many, and of myself.

Avoid Divisions
(Titus 3:9–11)

17Now I exhort you⁺, brothers, to watch out for those causing divisions and obstacles contrary to the teaching that you⁺ learned, and turn away from them. 18For such do not serve our Lord Christ,† but their own belly; and through smooth talk and blessing they deceive the hearts of the innocent.

19For your⁺ obedience has reached to all. Therefore I rejoice over you⁺. But I want you⁺ to be wise† to good, and innocent to evil.

20And the God of peace will crush Satan under your⁺ feet in quickness. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ† be with you⁺.†

21Timothy, my fellow worker, greets you⁺; so also Lucius and Jason and Sosipater, my kinsmen.

22I, Tertius, the one having written the letter, greet you⁺ in the Lord.

23Gaius, the host of me and of the whole church, greets you⁺.

Erastus the steward of the city greets you⁺; so also Quartus the brother.†

Doxology
(Jude 1:24–25)

25Now to Him being able to strengthen you⁺ according to my gospel and the proclamation of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery having been kept silent in the times of the ages, 26but now having been made manifest also through the prophetic writings, according to the commandment of the eternal God having been made known to all the Gentiles unto obedience of faith†— 27to the only wise God be the glory unto the ages of the ages, which is through Jesus Christ! Amen.†
