提阿非罗啊，我已经作了前书，论到耶稣开头一切所行所教训的，

保罗说：“非斯都大人，我不是癫狂，我说的乃是真实明白话。

大略说：“革老丢吕西亚，请巡抚腓力斯大人安。

彼得就开口把这事挨次给他们讲解说：

“腓力斯大人，我们因你得以大享太平，并且这一国的弊病，因着你的先见得以更正了；我们随时随地满心感谢不尽。

因为圣灵和我们定意不将别的重担放在你们身上，惟有几件事是不可少的，

“所以据我的意见，不可难为那归服神的外邦人；

所以，我们同心定意，拣选几个人，差他们同我们所亲爱的巴拿巴和保罗往你们那里去。

提阿非罗大人哪，有好些人提笔作书，述说在我们中间所成就的事，是照传道的人从起初亲眼看见又传给我们的。

再者，传道者因有智慧，仍将知识教训众人；又默想，又考查，又陈说许多箴言。

你行了这些事，我还闭口不言，你想我恰和你一样；其实我要责备你，将这些事摆在你眼前。

至于兄弟亚波罗，我再三地劝他同弟兄们到你们那里去；但这时他决不愿意去，几时有了机会他必去。

然而按我的意见，若常守节更有福气。我也想自己是被神的灵感动了。

耶和华我的神啊，你所行的奇事，并你向我们所怀的意念甚多，不能向你陈明；若要陈明，其事不可胜数。
