The love of the Smyrnaeans and Ephesians greets you. Remember in your prayers the Church in Syria, with which I am not worthy even to be named, being the least of them.
Farewell in Jesus Christ, submitting to the bishop as to the commandment, and likewise to the presbytery. And each of you individually, love one another with an undivided heart.
My spirit is consecrated for you, not only now but also when I attain God. For I am still in danger; but the Father is faithful in Jesus Christ to fulfill my petition and yours, in whom may you be found blameless.
