Outsiders

⁵  Walk in wisdom toward outsiders, making the best use of the time. ⁶  Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how you ought to answer each person.

⁷  Tychicus will tell you all about my activities. He is a beloved brother and faithful minister and fellow servant in the Lord. ⁸  I have sent him to you for this very purpose, that you may know how we are and that he may encourage your hearts, ⁹  and with him Onesimus, our faithful and beloved brother, who is one of you. They will tell you of everything that has taken place here.

¹⁸  I, Paul, write this greeting with my own hand. Remember my chains. Grace be with you.
