Greek New Testament: Byzantine Text (Robinson–Pierpont 2018)
1Masters, do to your servants that which is just and equal: knowing that you also have a master in heaven.
1οι κυριοι το δικαιον και την ισοτητα τοισ δουλοισ παρεχεσθε ειδοτεσ οτι και υμεισ εχετε κυριον εν ουρανοισ
2Be instant in prayer; watching in it with thanksgiving:
2τη προσευχη προσκαρτερειτε γρηγορουντεσ εν αυτη εν ευχαριστια
3Praying withal for us also, that God may open unto us a door of speech to speak the mystery of Christ (for which also I am bound;)
3προσευχομενοι αμα και περι ημων ινα ο θεοσ ανοιξη ημιν θυραν του λογου λαλησαι το μυστηριον του χριστου δι ο και δεδεμαι
4That I may make it manifest as I ought to speak.
4ινα φανερωσω αυτο ωσ δει με λαλησαι
5Walk with wisdom towards them that are without, redeeming the time.
5εν σοφια περιπατειτε προσ τουσ εξω τον καιρον εξαγοραζομενοι
6Let your speech be always in grace seasoned with salt: that you may know how you ought to answer every man.
6ο λογοσ υμων παντοτε εν χαριτι αλατι ηρτυμενοσ ειδεναι πωσ δει υμασ ενι εκαστω αποκρινεσθαι
7All the things that concern me, Tychicus, our dearest brother, and faithful minister and fellow servant in the Lord, will make known to you,
7τα κατ εμε παντα γνωρισει υμιν τυχικοσ ο αγαπητοσ αδελφοσ και πιστοσ διακονοσ και συνδουλοσ εν κυριω
8Whom I have sent to you for this same purpose, that he may know the things that concern you, and comfort your hearts,
8ον επεμψα προσ υμασ εισ αυτο τουτο ινα γνω τα περι υμων και παρακαλεση τασ καρδιασ υμων
9With Onesimus, a most beloved and faithful brother, who is one of you. All things that are done here, they shall make known to you.
9συν ονησιμω τω πιστω και αγαπητω αδελφω οσ εστιν εξ υμων παντα υμιν γνωριουσιν τα ωδε
10Aristarchus, my fellow prisoner, saluteth you, and Mark, the cousin german of Barnabus, touching whom you have received commandments; if he come unto you, receive him:
10ασπαζεται υμασ αρισταρχοσ ο συναιχμαλωτοσ μου και μαρκοσ ο ανεψιοσ βαρναβα περι ου ελαβετε εντολασ εαν ελθη προσ υμασ δεξασθε αυτον
11And Jesus, that is called Justus: who are of the circumcision: these only are my helpers in the kingdom of God; who have been a comfort to me.
11και ιησουσ ο λεγομενοσ ιουστοσ οι οντεσ εκ περιτομησ ουτοι μονοι συνεργοι εισ την βασιλειαν του θεου οιτινεσ εγενηθησαν μοι παρηγορια
12Epaphras saluteth you, who is one of you, a servant of Christ Jesus, who is always solicitous for you in prayers, that you may stand perfect, and full in all the will of God.
12ασπαζεται υμασ επαφρασ ο εξ υμων δουλοσ χριστου παντοτε αγωνιζομενοσ υπερ υμων εν ταισ προσευχαισ ινα στητε τελειοι και πεπληρωμενοι εν παντι θεληματι του θεου
13For I bear him testimony that he hath much labour for you, and for them that are at Laodicea, and them at Hierapolis.
13μαρτυρω γαρ αυτω οτι εχει ζηλον πολυν υπερ υμων και των εν λαοδικεια και των εν ιεραπολει
14Luke, the most dear physician, saluteth you: and Demas.
14ασπαζεται υμασ λουκασ ο ιατροσ ο αγαπητοσ και δημασ
15Salute the brethren who are at Laodicea, and Nymphas, and the church that is in his house.
15ασπασασθε τουσ εν λαοδικεια αδελφουσ και νυμφαν και την κατ οικον αυτου εκκλησιαν
16And when this epistle shall have been read with you, cause that it be read also in the church of the Laodiceans: and that you read that which is of the Laodiceans.
16και οταν αναγνωσθη παρ υμιν η επιστολη ποιησατε ινα και εν τη λαοδικαιων εκκλησια αναγνωσθη και την εκ λαοδικειασ ινα και υμεισ αναγνωτε
17And say to Archippus: Take heed to the ministry which thou hast received in the Lord, that thou fulfill it.
17και ειπατε αρχιππω βλεπε την διακονιαν ην παρελαβεσ εν κυριω ινα αυτην πληροισ
18The salutation of Paul with my own hand. Be mindful of my bands. Grace be with you. Amen.
18ο ασπασμοσ τη εμη χειρι παυλου μνημονευετε μου των δεσμων η χαρισ μεθ υμων αμην
