Whenever you go into a house, first say, 'Peace be with this house.'

If someone who is peace-loving lives there, let your greeting of peace remain on that person; if not, take back your greeting of peace.

You know the message he sent to the people of Israel, proclaiming the Good News of peace through Jesus Christ, who is Lord of all.

Here we are, then, speaking for Christ, as though God himself were making his appeal through us. We plead on Christ's behalf: let God change you from enemies into his friends!

I hope to see you soon, and then we will talk personally. (1:15) Peace be with you. All your friends send greetings. Greet all our friends personally.
