15. I urge you, brothers—you know that the household of Stephanas is the firstfruits of Achaia and that they have devoted themselves to the service of the holy ones—
16. be subordinate to such people and to everyone who works and toils with them.
17. I rejoice in the arrival of Stephanas, Fortunatus, and Achaicus, because they made up for your absence,
18. for they refreshed my spirit as well as yours. So give recognition to such people.
19. The churches of Asia send you greetings. Aquila and Prisca together with the church at their house send you many greetings in the Lord.
20. All the brothers greet you. Greet one another with a holy kiss.
21. I, Paul, write you this greeting in my own hand.
22. If anyone does not love the Lord, let him be accursed. Marana tha.
