¹The masters! that which is righteous and equal to the servants give ye, having known that ye also have a Master in the heavens.

¹상전들아 의와 공평을 종들에게 베풀지니 너희에게도 하늘에 상전이 계심을 알지어다

²In the prayer continue ye, watching in it in thanksgiving;

²기도를 항상 힘쓰고 기도에 감사함으로 깨어 있으라

³praying at the same time also for us, that God may open to us a door for the word, to speak the secret of the Christ, because of which also I have been bound,

³또한 우리를 위하여 기도하되 하나님이 전도할 문을 우리에게 열어주사 그리스도의 비밀을 말하게 하시기를 구하라 내가 이것을 인하여 매임을 당하였노라

⁴that I may manifest it, as it behoveth me to speak;

⁴그리하면 내가 마땅히 할 말로써 이 비밀을 나타내리라

⁵in wisdom walk ye toward those without, the time forestalling;

⁵외인을 향하여서는 지혜로 행하여 세월을 아끼라 !

⁶your word always in grace — with salt being seasoned — to know how it behoveth you to answer each one.

⁶너희 말을 항상 은혜 가운데서 소금으로 고루게 함같이 하라 그리하면 각 사람에게 마땅히 대답할 것을 알리라

⁷All the things concerning me make known to you shall Tychicus — the beloved brother, and faithful ministrant, and fellow-servant in the Lord —

⁷두기고가 내 사정을 다 너희에게 알게 하리니 그는 사랑을 받는 형제요 신실한 일군이요 주 안에서 함께 된 종이라

⁸whom I did send unto you for this very thing, that he might know the things concerning you, and might comfort your hearts,

⁸내가 저를 특별히 너희에게 보낸 것은 너희로 우리 사정을 알게 하고 너희 마음을 위로하게 하려 함이라

⁹with Onesimus the faithful and beloved brother, who is of you; all things to you shall they make known that [are] here.

⁹신실하고 사랑을 받는 형제 오네시모를 함께 보내노니 그는 너희에게서 온 사람이라 저희가 여기 일을 다 너희에게 알게 하리라

¹⁰Salute you doth Aristarchus, my fellow-captive, and Marcus, the nephew of Barnabas, (concerning whom ye did receive commands — if he may come unto you receive him,)

¹⁰

¹¹and Jesus who is called Justus, who are of the circumcision: these only [are] fellow-workers for the reign of God who did become a comfort to me.

¹¹

¹²Salute you doth Epaphras, who [is] of you, a servant of Christ, always striving for you in the prayers, that ye may stand perfect and made full in all the will of God,

¹²

¹³for I do testify to him, that he hath much zeal for you, and those in Laodicea, and those in Hierapolis.

¹³

¹⁴Salute you doth Lukas, the beloved physician, and Demas;

¹⁴

¹⁵salute ye those in Laodicea — brethren, and Nymphas, and the assembly in his house;

¹⁵

¹⁶and when the epistle may be read with you, cause that also in the assembly of the Laodiceans it may be read, and the [epistle] from Laodicea that ye also may read;

¹⁶

¹⁷and say to Archippus, `See to the ministration that thou didst receive in the Lord, that thou mayest fulfil it.`

¹⁷

¹⁸The salutation by the hand of me, Paul; remember my bonds; the grace [is] with you. Amen.
