(Some words not found in SR-GNT: πληρώσατέ μου τὴν χαρὰν ἵνα τὸ αὐτὸ φρονῆτε τὴν αὐτὴν ἀγάπην ἔχοντες σύμψυχοι τὸ ἓν φρονοῦντες)
Paul’s use of the idiom, united in soul, is a figurative way of asking the Philippians to be unified and to agree about what is important. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent idiom or use plain language. Alternate translation: [be one in spirit] or [be one in heart and will] or [agree about what is important] or [be unified]
τὸ ἓν φρονοῦντες
the the one_‹thing› thinking
Alternate translation: [being concerned about the same things]
2:1-11 In the midst of their persecution, Paul encourages the Philippians to be united and to live a humble life like Christ.
