Romans 16:19 in Context — Romans 16
17 E rogo-vos, irmãos, que sejais cuidadosos com os que causam divisões e obstáculos contrários à doutrina que aprendestes; e afastai-vos deles;
18 pois tais pessoas não servem ao nosso Senhor Jesus Cristo, mas sim, ao próprio ventre; e com palavras suaves e elogios enganam os corações dos ingênuos.
19 Pois a vossa obediência chegou [ao conhecimento] de todos. Por isso eu me alegro por vossa causa; quero, porém, que sejais sábios no bem, e inocentes quanto ao mal.
20 E o Deus de paz esmagará Satanás em pedaços debaixo dos vossos pés. A graça de nosso Senhor Jesus Cristo seja convosco. Amém!
21 Saúdam-vos o meu cooperador Timóteo, e os meus parentes Lúcio, Jáson, e Sosípatro.
