2 Εὐοδίαν παρακαλῶ καὶ Συντύχην παρακαλῶ τὸ αὐτὸ φρονεῖν ἐν κυρίῳ 3 ναὶ ἐρωτῶ καὶ σέ γνήσιε σύζυγε συλλαμβάνου αὐταῖς αἵτινες ἐν τῷ εὐαγγελίῳ συνήθλησάν μοι μετὰ καὶ Κλήμεντος καὶ τῶν λοιπῶν συνεργῶν μου ὧν τὰ ὀνόματα ἐν βίβλῳ ζωῆς 4 χαίρετε ἐν κυρίῳ πάντοτε πάλιν ἐρῶ χαίρετε 5 τὸ ἐπιεικὲς ὑμῶν γνωσθήτω πᾶσιν ἀνθρώποις ὁ κύριος ἐγγύς 6 μηδὲν μεριμνᾶτε ἀλλ' ἐν παντὶ τῇ προσευχῇ καὶ τῇ δεήσει μετὰ εὐχαριστίας τὰ αἰτήματα ὑμῶν γνωριζέσθω πρὸς τὸν θεόν 7 καὶ ἡ εἰρήνη τοῦ θεοῦ ἡ ὑπερέχουσα πάντα νοῦν φρουρήσει τὰς καρδίας ὑμῶν καὶ τὰ νοήματα ὑμῶν ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ 8 τὸ λοιπόν ἀδελφοί ὅσα ἐστὶν ἀληθῆ ὅσα σεμνά ὅσα δίκαια ὅσα ἁγνά ὅσα προσφιλῆ ὅσα εὔφημα εἴ τις ἀρετὴ καὶ εἴ τις ἔπαινος ταῦτα λογίζεσθε 9 ἃ καὶ ἐμάθετε καὶ παρελάβετε καὶ ἠκούσατε καὶ εἴδετε ἐν ἐμοί ταῦτα πράσσετε καὶ ὁ θεὸς τῆς εἰρήνης ἔσται μεθ' ὑμῶν		I call for Euodia and Syntuche to be of the same mind in the Lord. Truly I ask you also, sincere lfellow-laborer, assist them, whoever in the gospel works together with me in company also with Clement and the rest of those who work with me, whose names are in the book of life. Rejoice in the Lord always! Again i say, Rejoice! The gentle one among you all, let him be known by all men. The Lord is close at hand. In nothing be anxious, but in all prayers and supplications with thanksgiving let your petitions be made known to God. And the peace of God surpassing all understanding will keep watch of your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. To the rest, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is innocent, whatever is lovely, whatever is reputable, if anything is of good quality, and if anything is worthy of praise, enumerate these things! Which also you discovered and receieved and heard and saw in me, these things practice! Also the God of peace will be with you all.
