12. I want to say something about our brother Apollos. I tried my best to get him to go to you with the others. But he didn't want to go right now. He will go when he can.
13. Be on your guard. Stand firm in the faith. Be brave. Be strong.
14. Be loving in everything you do.
15. You know that the first believers in Achaia were from the family of Stephanas. They have spent all their time serving God's people. Brothers and sisters, I am asking you
16. to follow the lead of people like them. Follow everyone who joins in the task and works hard at it.
17. I was glad when Stephanas, Fortunatus and Achaicus arrived. They have supplied me with what you couldn't give me.
18. They renewed my spirit, and yours also. People like that are worthy of honor.
19. The churches in Asia Minor send you greetings. Aquila and Priscilla greet you warmly because of the Lord's love. So does the church that meets in their house.
20. All the brothers and sisters here send you greetings. Greet one another with a holy kiss.
21. I, Paul, am writing this greeting with my own hand.
