Philippians

1 There­fore, my brethren dear­ly beloved and longed for, my joy and crown, so stand fast in the Lord, my dear­ly beloved. 2 I be­seech Eu­o­dias, and be­seech Syn­ty­che, that they be of the same mind in the Lord. 3 And 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. 4 Re­joice in the Lord al­way: and again I say, Re­joice. 5 Let your mod­er­a­tion be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand. 6 Be care­ful for noth­ing; but in ev­ery thing by prayer and sup­pli­ca­tion with thanks­giv­ing let your re­quests be made known unto God. 7 And the peace of God, which pas­seth all un­der­stand­ing, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Je­sus. 8 Fi­nal­ly, 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. 9 Those things, which ye have both learned, and re­ceived, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you. 10 But 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. 11 Not that I speak in re­spect of want: for I have learned, in what­so­ev­er state I am, therewith to be con­tent. 12 I 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. 13 I can do all things through Christ which strength­eneth me. 14 Notwith­stand­ing ye have well done, that ye did com­mu­ni­cate with my af­flic­tion. 15 Now 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. 16 For even in Thes­sa­loni­ca ye sent once and again unto my ne­ces­si­ty. 17 Not be­cause I de­sire a gift: but I de­sire fruit that may abound to your ac­count. 18 But 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. 19 But my God shall sup­ply all your need ac­cord­ing to his rich­es in glo­ry by Christ Je­sus. 20 Now unto God and our Fa­ther be glo­ry for ever and ev­er. Amen. 21 Salute ev­ery saint in Christ Je­sus. The brethren which are with me greet you. 22 All the saints salute you, chiefly they that are of Caesar's house­hold. 23 The grace of our Lord Je­sus Christ be with you all. Amen.
