Greet Ampliatus, my beloved in the Lord.
We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brethren. He who does not love abides in death.
Therefore, my brethren, whom I love and long for, my joy and crown, stand firm thus in the Lord, my beloved.
greet also the church in their house. Greet my beloved Epaenetus, who was the first convert in Asia for Christ.
And if you salute only your brethren, what more are you doing than others? Do not even the Gentiles do the same?
Greet Andronicus and Junias, my kinsmen and my fellow prisoners; they are men of note among the apostles, and they were in Christ before me.
Greet Urbanus, our fellow worker in Christ, and my beloved Stachys.
