Colossians 4:9-11
J.B. Phillips New Testament
Greetings and farewell
7-9 Tychicus (a well-loved brother, a faithful minister and a fellow-servant of the Lord) will tell you all about my present circumstances. This is partly why I am sending him to you. The other reasons are that you may find out how we are all getting on, and that he may put new heart into you. With him is Onesimus one of your own congregation (well-loved and faithful, too). Between them they will tell you of conditions and activities here.
10-11 Aristarchus, who is also in prison here, sends greetings, and so does Barnabas’ cousin, Mark. I believe I told you before about him; if he does come to you, make him welcome. Jesus Justus, another Hebrew Christian, is here too. Only these few are working with me for the kingdom, but what a help they have been!

Colossians 4:9-11
New International Version
9 He is coming with Onesimus,(A) our faithful and dear brother, who is one of you.(B) They will tell you everything that is happening here.
10 My fellow prisoner Aristarchus(C) sends you his greetings, as does Mark,(D) the cousin of Barnabas.(E) (You have received instructions about him; if he comes to you, welcome him.) 11 Jesus, who is called Justus, also sends greetings. These are the only Jews[a] among my co-workers(F) for the kingdom of God, and they have proved a comfort to me.
