Apostol § 166
Precious in the sight of the Lord / is the death of His Saints!
Verse: What shall I render to the Lord for all His bounty to me?
Brethren, watch, stand fast in the faith, be brave, be strong. Let all that you do be done with love. I beseech you, brethren—you know the household of Stéphanas, that it is the firstfruits of Acháia, and that they have devoted themselves to the ministry of the saints—that you also submit to such, and to everyone who works and labors with us. I am glad about the coming of Stéphanas, Fortunátus, and Acháicus, for what was lacking on your part they supplied. For they refreshed my spirit and yours; therefore acknowledge such men. The Churches of Asia greet you. Áquila and Priscílla greet you heartily in the Lord, with the Church that is in their house. All the brethren greet you. Greet one another with a holy kiss. The salutation of me, Paul with my own hand. If any man does not love the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be Anáthema. O Lord, come! The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. My love be with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.
Thy priests shall clothe themselves with righteousness, and Thy Saints shall rejoice!
The righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance. He shall not fear evil tidings.
