Colossians 4:16-18
Amplified Bible
16 When this letter has been read among you, see that it is read in the church of the Laodiceans; and also that you in turn read [a]my letter [that is coming to you] from Laodicea. 17 And say to Archippus, “See to it that you fulfill [carefully the duties of] the ministry which you have received in the Lord.”
18 I, Paul, write this greeting with my own hand. Remember my chains. May grace (God’s unmerited favor and blessing) be with you.
