11 Onely Luke is with me. Take Marke and bring him with thee: for he is profitable to me for the ministerie.

13 The cloke that I left at Troas with Carpus, when thou commest, bring with thee, but especially the parchments.
14 Alexander the Coppersmith did mee much euill, the Lord reward him according to his works.
15 Of whom bee thou ware also, for he hath greatly withstood our words.
16 At my first answere no man stood with mee, but all men forsooke mee: I pray God that it may not bee laid to their charge.
17 Notwithstanding the Lord stood with me, and strengthened me, that by me the preaching might be fully knowen, and that all the Gentiles might heare: and I was deliuered out of the mouth of the Lyon.
18 And the Lord shall deliuer mee from euery euill worke, and will preserue me vnto his heauenly kingdome; to whom bee glory for euer, and euer. Amen.
