4 : 1 Masters, give unto your servants that which is just and equal; knowing that ye also have a Master in heaven. 4 : 2 Continue in prayer, and watch in the same with thanksgiving; 4 : 3 Withal praying also for us, that God would open unto us a door of utterance, to speak the mystery of Christ, for which I am also in bonds: 4 : 4 That I may make it manifest, as I ought to speak. 4 : 5 Walk in wisdom toward them that are without, redeeming the time. 4 : 6 Let your speech be alway with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man. 4 : 7 All my state shall Tychicus declare unto you, who is a beloved brother, and a faithful minister and fellowservant in the Lord: 4 : 8 Whom I have sent unto you for the same purpose, that he might know your estate, and comfort your hearts; 4 : 9 With Onesimus, a faithful and beloved brother, who is one of you. They shall make known unto you all things which are done here. 4 : 10 Aristarchus my fellowprisoner saluteth you, and Marcus, sister’s son to Barnabas, (touching whom ye received commandments: if he come unto you, receive him;) 4 : 11 And Jesus, which is called Justus, who are of the circumcision. These only are my fellowworkers unto the kingdom of God, which have been a comfort unto me. 4 : 12 Epaphras, who is one of you, a servant of Christ, saluteth you, always labouring fervently for you in prayers, that ye may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God. 4 : 13 For I bear him record, that he hath a great zeal for you, and them that are in Laodicea, and them in Hierapolis. 4 : 14 Luke, the beloved physician, and Demas, greet you. 4 : 15 Salute the brethren which are in Laodicea, and Nymphas, and the church which is in his house. 4 : 16 And when this epistle is read among you, cause that it be read also in the church of the Laodiceans; and that ye likewise read the epistle from Laodicea. 4 : 17 And say to Archippus, Take heed to the ministry which thou hast received in the Lord, that thou fulfil it. 4 : 18 The salutation by the hand of me Paul. Remember my bonds. Grace be with you. Amen. 4 : 255 Written from Rome to the Colossians by Tychicus and Onesimus.
