¹² salute Tryphaena, and Tryphosa, who are labouring in the Lord; salute Persis, the beloved, who did labour much in the Lord.

³⁸ beseech ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he may put forth workmen to His harvest.'

¹⁷ The well-leading elders of double honour let them be counted worthy, especially those labouring in word and teaching,

¹⁸ for the Writing saith, `An ox treading out thou shalt not muzzle,' and `Worthy `is' the workman of his reward.'

¹⁰ for for this we both labour and are reproached, because we hope on the living God, who is Saviour of all men -- especially of those believing.

¹² And we ask you, brethren, to know those labouring among you, and leading you in the Lord, and admonishing you,

¹³ and to esteem them very abundantly in love, because of their work; be at peace among yourselves;

³ unceasingly remembering of you the work of the faith, and the labour of the love, and the endurance of the hope, of our Lord Jesus Christ, in the presence of our God and Father,

¹² Salute you doth Epaphras, who `is' of you, a servant of Christ, always striving for you in the prayers, that ye may stand perfect and made full in all the will of God,

²⁹ for which also I labour, striving according to his working that is working in me in power.

¹⁶ that ye also be subject to such, and to every one who is working with `us' and labouring;

⁵⁸ so that, my brethren beloved, become ye stedfast, unmovable, abounding in the work of the Lord at all times, knowing that your labour is not vain in the Lord.

¹⁰ and by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace that `is' towards me came not in vain, but more abundantly than they all did I labour, yet not I, but the grace of God that `is' with me;

¹⁰ for God is not unrighteous to forget your work, and the labour of the love, that ye shewed to His name, having ministered to the saints and ministering;

¹¹ and we desire each one of you the same diligence to shew, unto the full assurance of the hope unto the end,
