1 Os encomiendo á Phebe nuestra hermana, que está en el servicio de la Iglesia de Cenchrea: 2 Que la recibais en el Señor, como deben los Santos: y la ayudeis en todo lo que os hubiere menester: porque ella ha asistido á muchos, y á mí en particular. 3 Saludad a Prisca, y á Aquila que trabajáron conmigo en Jesu-Christo: 4 (Los que por mi vida expusiéron sus cabezas: y no lo agradezco yo solo, mas también todas las Iglesias de las Gentes) 5 Y del mismo modo á la Iglesia, que está en su casa. Saludad á Epenéto mi amigo, que es las primicias del Asia en Christo. 6 Saludad á María, la que trabajó mucho entre vosotros. 7 Saludad á Andrónico, y á Junia, mis parientes, y cautivos conmigo: los quales se han señalado en el Apostolado, y fuéron antes que yo en Christo. 8 Saludad á Ampliato, á quien amo entrañablemente en el Señor. 9 Saludad á Urbano, que ha trabajado conmigo en Jesu-Christo, y á mi amado Estachys. 10 Saludad á Apeles, probado en Christo. 11 Saludad á aquellos, que son de la casa de Aristóbulo. Saludad á Herodión mi pariente. Saludad á los de la casa de Narciso, que son en el Señor. 12 Saludad á Tryphena, y á Tryphosa, que trabajan en el Señor. Saludad á nuestra amada Pérside, que trabajó mucho en el Señor. 13 Saludad á Rufo, escogido en el Señor, y á su madre y mia. 14 Saludad á Asyncrito, á Phlegonte, á Hérmas, á Patrobas, á Hermes, y á los hermanos que están con ellos. 15 Saludad á Philólogo, y á Julia, á Nereo, y á su hermana, y á Olympiade, y á todos los Santos, que con ellos están. 16 Saludaos los unos á los otros en ósculo santo. Todas las Iglesias de Christo os saludan. 17 Y os ruego, hermanos, que no perdais de vista á aquellos, que causan divisiones, y escándalos contra la doctrina, que habeis aprendido; y que os aparteis de ellos. 18 Porque los tales no sirven á nuestro Señor Jesu-Christo, sino á su vientre: y con dulces palabras, y con bendiciones engañan los corazones de los sencillos. 19 Porque vuestra obediencia es manifiesta á todos: por lo qual yo me gozo en vosotros. Mas quiero que seáis sabios en el bien y simples en el mal. 20 Y el Dios de la paz quebrante presto á Satanás debaxo de vuestros pies. La gracia de nuestro Señor Jesu-Christo sea con vosotros. 21 Salúdaos Timothéo mi coadjutor, y Lucio, y Jasón, y Sosípatro, mis deudos. 22 Yo Tércio, que he escrito ésta carta, os saludo en el Señor. 23 Salúdaos Cayo mi huésped, y toda la Iglesia. Salúdaos Erasto, thesorero de la ciudad, y Quarto hermano. 24 La gracia de nuestro Señor Jesu-Christo sea con todos vosotros. Amén. 25 Y al que es poderoso para confirmaros según mi Evangelio, y la predicación de Jesu-Christo, según la manifestación del mysterio escondido desde tiempos eternos, 26 El qual ahora se ha descubierto por las Escrituras de los Prophetas, según el mandamiento del eterno Dios, declarado á todas las Gentes para obedecer á la fé, 27 A Dios que es solo sabio, á él la honra y la gloria por Jesu-Christo en los siglos de los siglos. Amén.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
I Think that many even of those who have the appearance of being extremely good men, hasten over this part of the Epistle as superfluous, and having no great weight in it. And I think that the same befalls them in regard to the genealogy that is in the Gospel.

… for them?" That we might watch, and be ever prepared for conflict, guarding against our disguised as well as against our open enemies: which kind indeed Paul also was intimating, when he said, that "by their good words they deceive the hearts of the simple." Let us not be troubled therefore, when we see many such even now.
