| 1 | ¶ So that, my brethren, beloved and longed for, my joy and crown, thus stand fast in {the} Lord, beloved. | |
| 2 | I exhort Euodia, and exhort Syntyche, to be of the same mind in {the} Lord; | |
| 3 | yea, I ask thee also, true yokefellow, assist them, who have contended along with me in the glad tidings, with Clement also, and my other fellow-labourers, whose names {are} in {the} book of life. | |
| 4 | Rejoice in {the} Lord always: again I will say, Rejoice. | |
| 5 | Let your gentleness be known of all men. The Lord {is} near. | |
| 6 | Be careful about nothing; but in everything, by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; | |
| 7 | and the peace of God, which surpasses every understanding, shall guard your hearts and your thoughts by Christ Jesus. | |
| 8 | For the rest, brethren, whatsoever things {are} true, whatsoever things {are} noble, whatsoever things {are} just, whatsoever things {are} pure, whatsoever things {are} amiable, whatsoever things {are} of good report; if {there be} any virtue and if any praise, think on these things. | |
| 9 | What ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, these things do; and the God of peace shall be with you. | |
| 10 | ¶ But I rejoiced in {the} Lord greatly, that now however at length ye have revived your thinking of me, though surely ye did also think {of me}, but lacked opportunity. | |
| 11 | Not that I speak as regards privation, for as to me *I* have learnt in those circumstances in which I am, to be satisfied in myself. | |
| 12 | I know both how to be abased and I know how to abound. In everything and in all things I am initiated both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer privation. | |
| 13 | I have strength for all things in him that gives me power. | |
| 14 | But ye have done well in taking part in my affliction. | |
| 15 map | And know also *ye*, O Philippians, that in {the} beginning of the gospel, when I came out of Macedonia, no assembly communicated {anything} to me in {the} way of giving and receiving save *ye* alone; | |
| 16 map | for also in Thessalonica once and even twice ye sent to me for my need. | |
| 17 | Not that I seek gift, but I seek fruit abounding to your account. | |
| 18 | But I have all things in full supply and abound; I am full, having received of Epaphroditus the things {sent} from you, an odour of sweet savour, an acceptable sacrifice, agreeable to God. | |
| 19 | But my God shall abundantly supply all your need according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus. | |
| 20 | ¶ But to our God and Father {be} glory to the ages of ages. Amen. | |
| 21 | Salute every saint in Christ Jesus. The brethren who {are} with me salute you. | |
| 22 | All the saints salute you, and specially those of the household of Caesar. | |
| 23 | The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ {be} with your spirit. Amen. | |
