8. I am sending him to you for this very purpose, so that you may know about us and that he may encourage your hearts,
9. together with Onesimus, a trustworthy and beloved brother, who is one of you. They will tell you about everything here.
10. Aristarchus, my fellow prisoner, sends you greetings, as does Mark the cousin of Barnabas (concerning whom you have received instructions; if he comes to you, receive him),
11. and Jesus, who is called Justus, who are of the circumcision; these alone are my co-workers for the kingdom of God, and they have been a comfort to me.
12. Epaphras sends you greetings; he is one of you, a slave of Christ [Jesus], always striving for you in his prayers so that you may be perfect and fully assured in all the will of God.
13. For I can testify that he works very hard for you and for those in Laodicea and those in Hierapolis.
14. Luke the beloved physician sends greetings, as does Demas.
15. Give greetings to the brothers in Laodicea and to Nympha and to the church in her house.
16. And when this letter is read before you, have it read also in the church of the Laodiceans, and you yourselves read the one from Laodicea.
17. And tell Archippus, “See that you fulfill the ministry that you received in the Lord.”
