| 1 | Masters, do to your servants that which is just and equal: knowing that you also have a master in heaven. | Domini, quod iustum est et aequum, servis praestate: scientes quod et vos Dominum habetis in caelo. | Οἱ κύριοι τὸ δίκαιον καὶ τὴν ἰσότητα τοῖς δούλοις παρέχεσθε, εἰδότες ὅτι καὶ ὑμεῖς ἔχετε Κύριον ἐν οὐρανοῖς. |
| 2 | Be instant in prayer; watching in it with thanksgiving: | Orationi instate, vigilantes in ea in gratiarum actione: | Τῇ προσευχῇ προσκαρτερεῖτε, γρηγοροῦντες ἐν αὐτῇ ἐν εὐχαριστίᾳ, |
| 3 | Praying withal for us also, that God may open unto us a door of speech to speak the mystery of Christ (for which also I am bound;) | orantes simul et pro nobis, ut Deus aperiat nobis ostium sermonis ad loquendum mysterium Christi (propter quod etiam vinctus sum), | προσευχόμενοι ἅμα καὶ περὶ ἡμῶν, ἵνα ὁ Θεὸς ἀνοίξῃ ἡμῖν θύραν τοῦ λόγου, λαλῆσαι τὸ μυστήριον τοῦ Χριστοῦ, δι᾽ ὃ καὶ δέδεμαι, |
| 4 | That I may make it manifest as I ought to speak. | ut manifestem illud ita ut oportet me loqui. | ἵνα φανερώσω αὐτὸ ὡς δεῖ με λαλῆσαι. |
| 5 | Walk with wisdom towards them that are without, redeeming the time. | In sapientia ambulate ad eos, qui foris sunt: tempus redimentes. | Ἐν σοφίᾳ περιπατεῖτε πρὸς τοὺς ἔξω, τὸν καιρὸν ἐξαγοραζόμενοι. |
| 6 | Let your speech be always in grace seasoned with salt: that you may know how you ought to answer every man. | Sermo vester semper in gratia sale sit conditus, ut sciatis quomodo oporteat vos unicuique respondere. | ὁ λόγος ὑμῶν πάντοτε ἐν χάριτι, ἅλατι ἠρτυμένος, εἰδέναι πῶς δεῖ ὑμᾶς ἑνὶ ἑκάστῳ ἀποκρίνεσθαι. |
| 7 | All the things that concern me, Tychicus, our dearest brother, and faithful minister and fellow servant in the Lord, will make known to you, | Quae circa me sunt, omnia vobis nota faciet Tychicus, carissimus frater, et fidelis minister, et conservus in Domino: | Τὰ κατ᾽ ἐμὲ πάντα γνωρίσει ὑμῖν Τυχικὸς ὁ ἀγαπητὸς ἀδελφὸς καὶ πιστὸς διάκονος καὶ σύνδουλος ἐν Κυρίῳ, |
| 8 | Whom I have sent to you for this same purpose, that he may know the things that concern you, and comfort your hearts, | quem misi ad vos ad hoc ipsum, ut cognoscat quae circa vos sunt, et consoletur corda vestra, | ὃν ἔπεμψα πρὸς ὑμᾶς εἰς αὐτὸ τοῦτο, ἵνα γνῷ τὰ περὶ ὑμῶν καὶ παρακαλέσῃ τὰς καρδίας ὑμῶν, |
| 9 | With Onesimus, a most beloved and faithful brother, who is one of you. All things that are done here, they shall make known to you. | cum Onesimo carissimo, et fideli fratre, qui ex vobis est. Omnia, quae hic aguntur, nota facient vobis. | σὺν Ὀνησίμῳ τῷ πιστῷ καὶ ἀγαπητῷ ἀδελφῷ, ὅς ἐστιν ἐξ ὑμῶν· πάντα ὑμῖν γνωριοῦσι τὰ ὧδε. |
| 10 | Aristarchus, my fellow prisoner, saluteth you, and Mark, the cousin german of Barnabus, touching whom you have received commandments; if he come unto you, receive him: | Salutat vos Aristarchus concaptivus meus, et Marcus consobrinus Barnabae, de quo accepistis mandata: si venerit ad vos, excipite illum: | Ἀσπάζεται ὑμᾶς Ἀρίσταρχος ὁ συναιχμάλωτός μου, καὶ Μᾶρκος ὁ ἀνεψιὸς Βαρνάβα, — περὶ οὗ ἐλάβετε ἐντολάς· ἐὰν ἔλθῃ πρὸς ὑμᾶς, δέξασθε αὐτόν, — |
| 11 | And Jesus, that is called Justus: who are of the circumcision: these only are my helpers in the kingdom of God; who have been a comfort to me. | et Iesus, qui dicitur Iustus: qui sunt ex circumcisione: hi soli sunt adiutores mei in regno Dei, qui mihi fuerunt solatio. | καὶ Ἰησοῦς ὁ λεγόμενος Ἰοῦστος, οἱ ὄντες ἐκ περιτομῆς, οὗτοι μόνοι συνεργοὶ εἰς τὴν βασιλείαν τοῦ Θεοῦ, οἵτινες ἐγενήθησάν μοι παρηγορία. |
| 12 | Epaphras saluteth you, who is one of you, a servant of Christ Jesus, who is always solicitous for you in prayers, that you may stand perfect, and full in all the will of God. | Salutat vos Epaphras, qui ex vobis est, servus Christi Iesu, semper sollicitus pro vobis in orationibus, ut stetis perfecti, et pleni in omni voluntate Dei. | ἀσπάζεται ὑμᾶς Ἐπαφρᾶς ὁ ἐξ ὑμῶν, δοῦλος Χριστοῦ, πάντοτε ἀγωνιζόμενος ὑπὲρ ὑμῶν ἐν ταῖς προσευχαῖς, ἵνα στῆτε τέλειοι καὶ πεπληρωμένοι ἐν παντὶ θελήματι τοῦ Θεοῦ· |
| 13 | For I bear him testimony that he hath much labour for you, and for them that are at Laodicea, and them at Hierapolis. | Testimonium enim illi perhibeo quod habet multum laborem pro vobis, et pro iis qui sunt Laodiciae, et qui Hierapoli. | μαρτυρῶ γὰρ αὐτῷ ὅτι ἔχει ζῆλον πολὺν ὑπὲρ ὑμῶν καὶ τῶν ἐν Λαοδικείᾳ καὶ τῶν ἐν Ἱεραπόλει. |
| 14 | Luke, the most dear physician, saluteth you: and Demas. | Salutat vos Lucas, medicus carissimus, et Demas. | ἀσπάζεται ὑμᾶς Λουκᾶς ὁ ἰατρὸς ὁ ἀγαπητὸς καὶ Δημᾶς. |
| 15 | Salute the brethren who are at Laodicea, and Nymphas, and the church that is in his house. | Salutate fratres, qui sunt Laodiciae, et Nympham, et quae in domo eius est, ecclesiam. | ἀσπάσασθε τοὺς ἐν Λαοδικείᾳ ἀδελφοὺς καὶ Νυμφᾶν καὶ τὴν κατ᾽ οἶκον αὐτοῦ ἐκκλησίαν· |
| 16 | And when this epistle shall have been read with you, cause that it be read also in the church of the Laodiceans: and that you read that which is of the Laodiceans. | Et cum lecta fuerit apud vos epistola haec, facite ut et in Laodicensium ecclesia legatur: et eam, quae Laodicensium est, vos legatis. | καὶ ὅταν ἀναγνωσθῇ παρ᾽ ὑμῖν ἡ ἐπιστολή, ποιήσατε ἵνα καὶ ἐν τῇ Λαοδικέων ἐκκλησίᾳ ἀναγνωσθῇ, καὶ τὴν ἐκ Λαοδικείας ἵνα καὶ ὑμεῖς ἀναγνῶτε. |
| 17 | And say to Archippus: Take heed to the ministry which thou hast received in the Lord, that thou fulfill it. | Et dicite Archippo: Vide ministerium, quod accepisti in Domino, ut illud impleas. | καὶ εἴπατε Ἀρχίππῳ· βλέπε τὴν διακονίαν ἣν παρέλαβες ἐν Κυρίῳ, ἵνα αὐτὴν πληροῖς. |
| 18 | The salutation of Paul with my own hand. Be mindful of my bands. Grace be with you. Amen. | Salutatio, mea manu Pauli. Memores estote vinculorum meorum. Gratia vobiscum. Amen. | Ὁ ἀσπασμὸς τῇ ἐμῇ χειρὶ Παύλου. μνημονεύετέ μου τῶν δεσμῶν. Ἡ χάρις μεθ᾽ ὑμῶν· ἀμήν. |
