Romans 16:21–27 (NIV)
       ²¹ Timothy, my co-worker, sends his greetings to you, as do Lucius, Jason and Sosipater, my fellow Jews.
       ²² I, Tertius, who wrote down this letter, greet you in the Lord.
       ²³ Gaius, whose hospitality I and the whole church here enjoy, sends you his greetings.
          Erastus, who is the city’s director of public works, and our brother Quartus send you their greetings.
       ²⁵ Now to him who is able to establish you in accordance with my gospel, the message I proclaim about Jesus Christ, in keeping with the revelation of the mystery hidden for long ages past, ²⁶ but now revealed and made known through the prophetic writings by the command of the eternal God, so that all the Gentiles might come to the obedience that comes from faith—²⁷ to the only wise God be glory forever through Jesus Christ! Amen.

1. Glory be to God, who has made us a part of a worldwide spiritual family (21–23).

2. Glory be to God, who will complete the work he has started in us (25a).

3. Glory be to God, who has brought to fulfillment his long-planned and long-promised salvation through Jesus Christ (25b–26a).

4. Glory be to God, who is calling people from every language, tribe, and nation to himself through the gospel (26b).

5. Glory be to God forever and ever because of what he has done for us through Christ (27).
