To the Philippians 14.1 · Sophia Scriptura

Latin text · Lake, LCL 24:300

Haec vobis scripsi per Crescentem, quem in praesenti commendavi vobis et nunc commendo. Conversatus est enim nobiscum inculpabiliter; credo quia et vobiscum similiter. Sororem autem eius habebitis commendatam, cum venerit ad vos. Incolumes estote in domino Iesu Christo in gratia cum omnibus vestris. Amen.

English · Claude translation

I have written these things to you through Crescens, whom I recently commended to you and now commend again. For he has conducted himself blamelessly among us, and I believe he will do the same among you. And you will regard his sister as commended to you when she comes to you. Farewell in the Lord Jesus Christ, in grace, with all who are yours. Amen.
