Romans 16

Hebrew Names Version HNV

1 I commend to you Phoebe, our sister, who is a servant of the assembly that is at Cenchreae,

2 that you receive her in the Lord, in a way worthy of the holy ones, and that you assist her in whatever matter she may need from you, for she herself also has been a helper of many, and of my own self.

3 Greet Prisca and Aquila, my fellow workers in Messiah Yeshua,

4 who for my life, laid down their own necks; to whom not only I give thanks, but also all the assemblies of the Goyim.

5 Greet the assembly that is in their house. Greet Epaenetus, my beloved, who is the first fruits of Achaia to Messiah.

6 Greet Miryam, who labored much for us.

7 Greet Andronicus and Junias, my relatives and my fellow prisoners, who are notable among the apostles, who also have been in Messiah before me.

8 Greet Amplias, my beloved in the Lord.

9 Greet Urbanus, our fellow worker in Messiah, and Stachys, my beloved.

10 Greet Apelles, the approved in Messiah. Greet those who are of the household of Aristobulus.

11 Greet Herodion, my kinsman. Greet them of the household of Narcissus, who are in the Lord.

12 Greet Tryphaena and Tryphosa, who labor in the Lord. Greet Persis, the beloved, who labored much in the Lord.

13 Greet Rufus, the chosen in the Lord, and his mother and mine.

14 Greet Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermes, Patrobas, Hermas, and the brothers who are with them.

15 Greet Philologus and Julia, Nereus and his sister, and Olympas, and all the holy ones who are with them.

16 Greet one another with a holy kiss. The assemblies of Messiah greet you.

17 Now I beg you, brothers, look out for those who are causing the divisions and occasions of stumbling, contrary to the doctrine which you learned, and turn away from them.

18 For those who are such don't serve our Lord, Yeshua the Messiah, but their own belly; and by their smooth and flattering speech, they deceive the hearts of the innocent.

19 For your obedience has reached all. I rejoice therefore over you. But I desire to have you wise to that which is good, but innocent to that which is evil.

20 Now the God of shalom will crush Hasatan under your feet swiftly. The grace of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah be with you.

21 Timothy, my fellow worker, greets you, as do Lucius, Jason, and Sosipater, my relatives.

22 I, Tertius, who write the letter, greet you in the Lord.

23 Gaius, my host and host of the whole assembly, greets you. Erastus, the treasurer of the city, greets you, as does Quartus, the brother.

24 The grace of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah be with you all! Amein.

25 Now to him who is able to establish you according to my Good News and the preaching of Yeshua the Messiah, according to the revelation of the mystery which has been kept in silence through eternal times,

26 but now is revealed, and by the Scriptures of the prophets, according to the mitzvah of the eternal God, is made known to all the nations to obedience of faith;

27 to the only wise God, through Yeshua the Messiah, to whom be the glory forever! Amein.

The Message Bible MSG

1 Be sure to welcome our friend Phoebe in the way of the Master, with all the generous hospitality we Christians are famous for. I heartily endorse both her and her work. She's a key representative of the church at Cenchrea.

2 Help her out in whatever she asks. She deserves anything you can do for her. She's helped many a person, including me.

3 Say hello to Priscilla and Aquila, who have worked hand in hand with me in serving Jesus.

4 They once put their lives on the line for me. And I'm not the only one grateful to them. All the non-Jewish gatherings of believers also owe them plenty,

5 to say nothing of the church that meets in their house. Hello to my dear friend Epenetus. He was the very first Christian in the province of Asia.

6 Hello to Mary. What a worker she has turned out to be!

7 Hello to my cousins Andronicus and Junias. We once shared a jail cell. They were believers in Christ before I was. Both of them are outstanding leaders.

8 Hello to Ampliatus, my good friend in the family of God.

9 Hello to Urbanus, our companion in Christ's work, and my good friend Stachys.

10 Hello to Apelles, a tried-and-true veteran in following Christ. Hello to the family of Aristobulus.

11 Hello to my cousin Herodion. Hello to those Christians from the family of Narcissus.

12 Hello to Tryphena and Tryphosa - such diligent women in serving the Master. Hello to Persis, a dear friend and hard worker in Christ.

13 Hello to Rufus - a good choice by the Master! - and his mother. She has also been a dear mother to me.

14 Hello to Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermes, Patrobas, Hermas, and also to all of their families.

15 Hello to Philologus, Julia, Nereus and his sister, and Olympas - and all the Christians who live with them.

16 Holy embraces all around! All the churches of Christ send their warmest greetings!

17 One final word of counsel, friends. Keep a sharp eye out for those who take bits and pieces of the teaching that you learned and then use them to make trouble. Give these people a wide berth.

18 They have no intention of living for our Master Christ. They're only in this for what they can get out of it, and aren't above using pious sweet talk to dupe unsuspecting innocents.

19 And so while there has never been any question about your honesty in these matters - I couldn't be more proud of you! - I want you also to be smart, making sure every "good" thing is the real thing. Don't be gullible in regard to smooth-talking evil. Stay alert like this,

20 and before you know it the God of peace will come down on Satan with both feet, stomping him into the dirt. Enjoy the best of Jesus!

21 And here are some more greetings from our end. Timothy, my partner in this work, Lucius, and my cousins Jason and Sosipater all said to tell you hello.

22 I, Tertius, who wrote this letter at Paul's dictation, send you my personal greetings.

23 Gaius, who is host here to both me and the whole church, wants to be remembered to you. Erastus, the city treasurer, and our good friend Quartus send their greetings.

25 All of our praise rises to the One who is strong enough to make you strong, exactly as preached in Jesus Christ, precisely as revealed in the mystery kept secret for so long

26 but now an open book through the prophetic Scriptures. All the nations of the world can now know the truth and be brought into obedient belief, carrying out the orders of God, who got all this started, down to the very last letter.

27 All our praise is focused through Jesus on this incomparably wise God! Yes!
