Colossians 4

Masters, treat your servants righteously and fairly, because you know that you also have a master in heaven.

Further Instructions

Continue steadfastly in prayer, being watchful in it with thanksgiving.
At the same time, also be praying for us, that God will open to us a door for the word so that we can speak the sacred secret of Christ, on account of which I am imprisoned.
Pray that I make it clear, as it is necessary for me to speak.
Walk in wisdom toward outsiders, making the most of your opportunities.
Let your speech always be with grace, seasoned with salt, so that you know how you are to respond to each person.

Final Greetings

Tychicus, the beloved brother and faithful minister and fellow servant in the Lord, will make known to you all the things about me.
I am sending him to you for this very reason, so that you will know how we are doing, and so that he can encourage your hearts.
He is coming with Onesimus, the faithful and beloved brother, who is one of you. They will make known to you all the things that are happening here.
Aristarchus, my fellow prisoner, greets you, and Mark, the cousin of Barnabas (concerning whom you received commands; if he comes to you, welcome him),
and Jesus, who is called Justus. These are the only ones from the circumcision who are my fellow workers for the Kingdom of God, and they have been a comfort to me.
Epaphras, who is one of you and a servant of Christ Jesus, greets you. He is always striving for you in his prayers, praying that you stand mature and fully assured in all the will of God.
Indeed, I can testify about him that he works very hard for you, and for those in Laodicea, and for those in Hierapolis.
Luke, the beloved physician, greets you, and so does Demas.
Greet the brothers and sisters who are in Laodicea, and Nympha, and the church that is in her house.
And when this letter has been read among you, have it also read among the church of the Laodiceans, and see that you also read the letter from Laodicea.
And say to Archippus, “See to it that you fulfill the assignment that you have received in the Lord.”
This greeting is written by my own hand—Paul. Remember my imprisonment. Grace be with you all.
