19For all have knowledge of how you do what you are ordered. For this reason I have joy in you, but it is my desire that you may be wise in what is good, and without knowledge of evil.
20And the God of peace will be crushing Satan under your feet before long. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
21Timothy, who is working with me, sends his love to you, so do Lucius and Jason and Sosipater, my relations.
22I, Tertius, who have done the writing of this letter, send love in the Lord.
23Gaius, with whom I am living, whose house is open to all the church, sends his love, so does Erastus, the manager of the accounts of the town, and Quartus, the brother.
