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  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  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.
