⁸ we, then, ought to receive such, that fellow-workers we may become to the truth.

¹⁴ `And whoever may not receive you nor hear your words, coming forth from that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet,

²⁴ Markus, Aristarchus, Demas, Lukas, my fellow-workmen!

² and Apphia the beloved, and Archippus our fellow-soldier, and the assembly in thy house:

² and did send Timotheus -- our brother, and a ministrant of God, and our fellow-workman in the good news of the Christ -- to establish you, and to comfort you concerning your faith,

¹¹ and Jesus who is called Justus, who are of the circumcision: these only `are' fellow-workers for the reign of God who did become a comfort to me.

³ and I ask also thee, genuine yoke-fellow, be assisting those women who in the good news did strive along with me, with Clement also, and the others, my fellow-workers, whose names `are' in the book of life.

²³ whether -- about Titus -- my partner and towards you fellow-worker, whether -- our brethren, apostles of assemblies -- glory of Christ;

² receive us; no one did we wrong; no one did we waste; no one did we defraud;

³ not to condemn you do I say `it', for I have said before that in our hearts ye are to die with and to live with;

¹ And working together also we call upon `you' that ye receive not in vain the grace of God --

¹⁰ And if Timotheus may come, see that he may become without fear with you, for the work of the Lord he doth work, even as I,

¹¹ no one, then, may despise him; and send ye him forward in peace, that he may come to me, for I expect him with the brethren;

⁵ Who, then, is Paul, and who Apollos, but ministrants through whom ye did believe, and to each as the Lord gave?

⁶ I planted, Apollos watered, but God was giving growth;

⁷ so that neither is he who is planting anything, nor he who is watering, but He who is giving growth -- God;

⁸ and he who is planting and he who is watering are one, and each his own reward shall receive, according to his own labour,

⁹ for of God we are fellow-workmen; God's tillage, God's building ye are.

⁷ and he from within answering may say, Do not give me trouble, already the door hath been shut, and my children with me are in the bed, I am not able, having risen, to give to thee.

⁴⁰ `He who is receiving you doth receive me, and he who is receiving me doth receive Him who sent me,

¹⁰ because of this, if I may come, I will cause him to remember his works that he doth, with evil words prating against us; and not content with these, neither doth he himself receive the brethren, and those intending he doth forbid, and out of the assembly he doth cast.
