Romans 16:19-27

¹⁹Everyone has heard of your ready obedience. It is true that I am very happy about you, but I want you to be well versed in all that is good, and innocent of all that is bad.

²⁰And God, the giver of peace, will before long crush Satan under your feet. May the blessing of Jesus, our Lord, be with you.

²¹Timothy, my fellow worker, sends you his greetings, and Lucius, Jason, and Sosipater, my countrymen, send theirs.

²²I Tertius, who am writing this letter, send you my Christian greeting.

²³My host Gaius, who extends his hospitality to the whole church, sends you his greeting; and Erastus, the city treasurer, and Quartus, our dear friend, add theirs.

²⁵Now to him who is able to strengthen you, as promised in the good news entrusted to me and in the proclamation of Jesus Christ, in accordance with the revelation of that hidden purpose, which in past ages was kept secret but now has been revealed

²⁶and, in obedience to the command of the immortal God, made known through the writings of the prophets to all nations, to secure submission to the faith —

²⁷to him, I say, the wise and only God, be ascribed, through Jesus Christ, all glory for ever and ever. Amen.
