Therefore receive one another, as Christ also received us to the glory of God.

He that receives you receives me, and he that receives me receives him that sent me.

And whosoever shall give to drink unto one of these little ones a cup of cold water only in the name of a disciple, verily I say unto you, he shall in no wise lose his reward.

And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Since you have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, you have done it unto me.

Receive him therefore in the Lord with all gladness; and hold such in honor:

Aristarchus my fellow prisoner greets you, and Mark, cousin to Barnabas, (concerning whom you received commandments: if he come unto you, receive him;)

Whom I have sent again: you therefore receive him, that is, my own heart:

If you count me therefore a partner, receive him as myself.

If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed:

Beloved, you do faithfully whatsoever you do for the brethren, and for strangers;

Because for his name's sake they went forth, taking nothing of the Gentiles.

I wrote unto the church: but Diotrephes, who loves to have the preeminence among them, receives us not.

But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becomes saints;

Only let your manner of life be as it becomes the gospel of Christ: that whether I come and see you, or else be absent, I may hear of your affairs, that you stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel;

But (as becomes women professing godliness) with good works.

The aged women likewise, that they be in behavior as becomes holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things;

Greet Priscilla and Aquila my helpers in Christ Jesus:

Who have for my life laid down their own necks: unto whom not only I give thanks, but also all the churches of the Gentiles.

Greet Mary, who bestowed much labor on us.

Greet Urbanus our helper in Christ, and Stachys my beloved.

Gaius my host, and of the whole church, greets you. Erastus the treasurer of the city greets you, and Quartus a brother.

Now there was at Joppa a certain disciple named Tabitha, which by interpretation is called Dorcas: this woman was full of good works and almsdeeds which she did.

Then Peter arose and went with them. When he had come, they brought him into the upper chamber: and all the widows stood by him weeping, and showing the coats and garments which Dorcas made, while she was with them.

And he gave her his hand, and lifted her up, and when he had called the saints and widows, presented her alive.

Nevertheless you have done well, that you did share in my affliction.

For even in Thessalonica you sent once and again unto my necessity.

But I have all, and abound: I am full, having received of Epaphroditus the things which were sent from you, a fragrant offering, a sacrifice acceptable, well pleasing to God.

The Lord grant unto him that he may find mercy of the Lord in that day: and in how many things he ministered unto me at Ephesus, you know very well.
