9. I am sending him with Onesimus, the faithful and dear brother from your group. They will tell you everything that has happened here.
10. Aristarchus, the one here in prison with me, sends you his greetings. Mark, the cousin of Barnabas, also sends his greetings. (I have already told you what to do about Mark. If he comes, welcome him.)
11. And greetings from Jesus, the one who is also called Justus. These are the only Jewish believers who work with me for God’s kingdom. They have been a great comfort to me.
12. Epaphras, another servant of Jesus Christ from your group, sends his greetings. He constantly struggles for you in prayer. He prays that you will grow to be spiritually mature and have everything that God wants for you.
13. I know that he has worked hard for you and the people in Laodicea and in Hierapolis.
14. Greetings also from Demas and our dear friend Luke, the doctor.
15. Give our greetings to the brothers and sisters in Laodicea. Greetings also to Nympha and to the church that meets in her house.
