1Therefore,
my brethren
dearly
beloved and
longed for,
my joy and
crown, so
stand fast
in the
Lord, my dearly
beloved.
2I
beseech
Euodias, and
beseech
Syntyche,
that they be
of the same
mind in the
Lord.
3And
I intreat
thee also,
true
yokefellow,
help those
women which
laboured
with me in
the gospel,
with Clement
also, and with other
my
fellowlabourers,
whose names are in
the book of
life.
4Rejoice
in the Lord
alway: and again
I say,
Rejoice.
5Let
your
moderation
be known
unto all
men. The
Lord is at
hand.
6Be
careful for
nothing; but
in every
thing by
prayer and
supplication
with
thanksgiving
let your
requests be
made known
unto God.
7And
the peace of
God, which
passeth all
understanding,
shall keep
your hearts
and minds
through
Christ
Jesus.
8Finally,
brethren,
whatsoever
things are
true,
whatsoever
things are honest,
whatsoever
things are just,
whatsoever
things are pure,
whatsoever
things are lovely,
whatsoever
things are of
good report;
if there
be any
virtue, and
if there
be any
praise,
think on
these
things.
9Those
things,
which ye
have both
learned, and
received,
and heard,
and seen in
me, do: and
the God of
peace shall
be with you.
10But
I rejoiced
in the Lord
greatly,
that now at
the last
your care of
me hath
flourished
again;
wherein ye
were also
careful, but
ye lacked
opportunity.
11Not
that I speak
in respect
of want: for
I have
learned, in
whatsoever
state I am, therewith to
be content.
12I
know both
how to be
abased, and
I know how
to abound:
every where
and in all
things I am
instructed
both to be
full and to
be hungry,
both to
abound and
to suffer
need.
13I
can do all
things
through
Christ which
strengtheneth
me.
14Notwithstanding
ye have well
done, that
ye did
communicate
with my
affliction.
15Now
ye
Philippians
know also,
that in the
beginning of
the gospel,
when I
departed
from
Macedonia,
no church
communicated
with me as
concerning
giving and
receiving,
but ye only.
16For
even in
Thessalonica
ye sent once
and again
unto my
necessity.
17Not
because I
desire a
gift: but I
desire fruit
that may
abound to
your
account.
18But
I have all,
and abound:
I am full,
having
received of
Epaphroditus
the things which
were sent from
you, an
odour of a
sweet smell,
a sacrifice
acceptable,
wellpleasing
to God.
19But
my God shall
supply all
your need
according to
his riches
in glory by
Christ
Jesus.
20Now
unto God and
our Father be glory
for ever and
ever. Amen.
21Salute
every saint
in Christ
Jesus. The
brethren
which are
with me
greet you.
22All
the saints
salute you,
chiefly they
that are of
Caesar's
household.
23The
grace of our
Lord Jesus
Christ be with
you all.
Amen. (To the Philippians
written from
Rome, by
Epaphroditus.)
