Do your best to come before winter. Eubulus sends greetings to you, as do Pudens and Linus and Claudia and all the brothers and sisters.
Thus when you go with your accuser before a magistrate, on the way make an effort to reach a settlement, or you may be dragged before the judge, and the judge hand you over to the officer, and the officer throw you in prison.
All the brothers and sisters send greetings. Greet one another with a holy kiss.
The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Spirit be with all of you.
All the saints greet you, especially those of the emperor’s household.
Recalling your tears, I long to see you so that I may be filled with joy.
When you come, bring the cloak that I left with Carpus at Troas, also the books, and above all the parchments.
Do your best to come to me soon,
When I send Artemas to you, or Tychicus, do your best to come to me at Nicopolis, for I have decided to spend the winter there.
The children of your elect sister send you their greetings.
instead, I hope to see you soon, and we will talk together face to face.
