      | ¶ | Masters, give unto [your] servants that which is just and equal; knowing that ye also have a Master in heaven. | |
| ¶ | Continue in prayer, and watch in the same with thanksgiving; | |
| Withal praying also for us, that God would open unto us a door of utterance, to speak the mystery of Christ, for which I am also in bonds: | ||
| That I may make it manifest, as I ought to speak. | ||
| Walk in wisdom toward them that are without, redeeming the time. | ||
| Let your speech [be] alway with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man. | ||
| ¶ | All my state shall Tychicus declare unto you, [who is] a beloved brother, and a faithful minister and fellowservant in the Lord: | |
| Whom I have sent unto you for the same purpose, that he might know your estate, and comfort your hearts; | ||
| With Onesimus, a faithful and beloved brother, who is [one] of you. They shall make known unto you all things which [are done] here. | ||
 | Aristarchus my fellowprisoner saluteth you, and Marcus, sister's son to Barnabas, (touching whom ye received commandments: if he come unto you, receive him;) | ||
| And Jesus, which is called Justus, who are of the circumcision. These only [are my] fellowworkers unto the kingdom of God, which have been a comfort unto me. | ||
| Epaphras, who is [one] of you, a servant of Christ, saluteth you, always labouring fervently for you in prayers, that ye may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God. | ||
| For I bear him record, that he hath a great zeal for you, and them [that are] in Laodicea, and them in Hierapolis. | ||
| Luke, the beloved physician, and Demas, greet you. | ||
| Salute the brethren which are in Laodicea, and Nymphas, and the church which is in his house. | ||
| ¶ | And when this epistle is read among you, cause that it be read also in the church of the Laodiceans; and that ye likewise read the [epistle] from Laodicea. | |
| And say to Archippus, Take heed to the ministry which thou hast received in the Lord, that thou fulfil it. | ||
| The salutation by the hand of me Paul. Remember my bonds. Grace [be] with you. Amen. [[[Written from Rome to Colossians by Tychicus and Onesimus.]]] |
