18Pray for us: for we are persuaded that we have a good conscience, desiring to live honorably in all things.
19And I exhort [you] the more exceedingly to do this, that I may be restored to you the sooner.
20Now the God of peace, who brought again from the dead the great shepherd of the sheep with the blood of an eternal covenant, [even] our Lord Jesus,
21make you perfect in every good thing to do his will, working in us that which is well-pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom [be] the glory for ever and ever. Amen.
22But I exhort you, brethren, bear with the word of exhortation, for I have written unto you in few words.
23Know ye that our brother Timothy hath been set at liberty; with whom, if he come shortly, I will see you.
24Salute all them that have the rule over you, and all the saints. They of Italy salute you.
