Romans 16:17-20 GW . . .Brothers and sisters, I urge you to watch out for those people who create divisions and who make others fall away from the Christian faith by teaching doctrine that is not the same as you have learned. Stay away from them. (18) People like these are not serving Christ our Lord. They are serving their own desires. By their smooth talk and flattering words they deceive unsuspecting people. (19) Everyone has heard about your obedience [to the Gospels] and this makes me happy for you. I want you to do what is good and to avoid what is evil. (20) The God of peace will quickly crush Satan under your feet. May the good will of our Lord Jesus be with you!
Romans 16:17-20 GNB . . .I urge you, my friends: watch out for those who cause divisions and upset people's faith and go against the teaching [of Christ] which you have received. Keep away from them! (18) For those who do such things are not serving Christ our Lord, but their own appetites. By their fine words and flattering speech they deceive innocent people. (19) Everyone has heard of your loyalty to the gospel, and for this reason I am happy about you. I want you to be wise about what is good, but innocent in what is evil. (20) And God, our source of peace, will soon crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus be with you.
Romans 16:17-20 ESV . . .I appeal to you, brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and create obstacles contrary to the doctrine that you have been taught; avoid them. (18) For such persons do not serve our Lord Christ, but their own appetites, and by smooth talk and flattery they deceive the hearts of the naive. (19) For your obedience [to the Gospel] is known to all, so that I rejoice over you, but I want you to be wise as to what is good and innocent as to what is evil. (20) The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
Romans 16:17-20 BBE . . .Now, it is my desire, brothers, that you will take note of those who are causing division and trouble among you, quite against the teaching which was given to you: and keep away from them. (18) For such people are not servants of the Lord Christ, but of their stomachs; and by their smooth and well-said words the hearts of those who have no knowledge of evil are tricked. (19) For all have knowledge of how you do what you are ordered [by Christ]. For this reason I have joy in you, but it is my desire that you may be wise in what is good, and without knowledge of evil. (20) And the God of peace will be crushing Satan under your feet before long. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.

You will note the reference windows often include more than one translation of the Bible. The reason is to strive to gain the best possible understanding of the original Hebrew and Greek. Since we don't speak those languages, we rely on those who have come before and made the effort to translate those texts into English for us. Considering several translations gives the benefit of the understanding of several translation committees or individuals.
