彼得前书5:12-13
12我略略地写了这信，托我所看为忠心的兄弟西拉转交你们，劝勉你们，又证明这恩是神的真恩。你们务要在这恩上站立得住。13在巴比伦与你们同蒙拣选的教会问你们安。我儿子马可也问你们安。
12I have written and sent this short letter to you with the help of Silas,#5:12 Greek Silvanus. whom I commend to you as a faithful brother. My purpose in writing is to encourage you and assure you that what you are experiencing is truly part of God’s grace for you. Stand firm in this grace. 13Your sister church here in Babylon#5:13 Greek The elect one in Babylon. Babylon was probably symbolic for Rome. sends you greetings, and so does my son Mark.
