Philippians 4
1 So my brothers, well loved and very dear to me, my joy and crown, be strong in the Lord, my loved ones.
Therefore, my brothers, whom I love and long for, my joy and crown, so stand firm in the Lord, my beloved.
2 I make request to Euodias and Syntyche to be of the same mind in the Lord.
I appeal to Euodia and I appeal to Syntyche to agree in the Lord.
3 And I make request to you, true helper in my work, to see to the needs of those women who took part with me in the good news, with Clement and the rest of my brother-workers whose names are in the book of life.
Yes, I ask you also, true companion, help these women, for they labored with me in the Good News, with Clement also, and the rest of my fellow workers, whose names are in the Book of Life.
4 Be glad in the Lord at all times: again I say, Be glad.
Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, Rejoice.
5 Let your gentle behaviour be clear to all men. The Lord is near.
Let your gentleness be evident to all people. The Lord is near.
6 Have no cares; but in everything with prayer and praise put your requests before God.
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God.
7 And the peace of God, which is deeper than all knowledge, will keep your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.
And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Meshikha Yeshua.
8 For the rest, my brothers, whatever things are true, whatever things have honour, whatever things are upright, whatever things are holy, whatever things are beautiful, whatever things are of value, if there is any virtue and if there is any praise, give thought to these things.
Finally, brothers, whatever things are true, whatever things are honorable, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report; if there is any virtue, and if there is any praise, think on these things.
9 The things which came to you by my teaching and preaching, and which you saw in me, these things do, and the God of peace will be with you.
And the things you learned and received and heard and saw in me, do these things. And the God of peace will be with you.
10 But I am very glad in the Lord that your care for me has come to life again; though you did in fact take thought for me, but you were not able to give effect to it.
Now I rejoice in the Lord greatly that at last you have revived your concern for me; in which you were indeed concerned, but you lacked opportunity.
11 But I will not say anything about my needs, for I am able, wherever I am, to be dependent on myself.
I'm not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content in any circumstance.
12 It is the same to me if I am looked down on or honoured; everywhere and in all things I have the secret of how to be full and how to go without food; how to have wealth and how to be in need.
I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have a lot. In any and all circumstances I have learned the secret, whether full or hungry, whether having a lot or being in need.
13 I am able to do all things through him who gives me strength.
I can do all things through him who strengthens me.
14 But you did well to have care for me in my need.
Still, you have done well to share my hardship.
15 And you have knowledge, Philippians, that when the good news first came to you, when I went away from Macedonia, no church took part with me in the business of giving to the saints, but you only;
And you Philippians yourselves know that in the beginning of the Good News, when I departed from Macedonia, no church shared with me in the matter of giving and receiving but you only.
16 Because even in Thessalonica you sent once and again to me in my need.
For even in Thessalonica you sent me aid twice.
17 Not that I am looking for an offering, but for fruit which may be put to your credit.
Not that I seek the gift, but I seek the fruit that increases to your account.
18 I have all things and more than enough: I am made full, having had from Epaphroditus the things which came from you, a perfume of a sweet smell, an offering well pleasing to God.
But I have received everything in full, and I have an abundance. I am fully supplied, having received from Epaphroditus the things that came from you, a sweet-smelling fragrance, an acceptable and well-pleasing sacrifice to God.
19 And my God will give you all you have need of from the wealth of his glory in Christ Jesus.
And my God will supply all your needs according to his glorious riches in Meshikha Yeshua.
Now to our God and Father be the glory forever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
21 Give words of love to every saint in Christ Jesus. The brothers who are with me send you their love.
Greet every saint in Meshikha Yeshua. The brothers who are with me greet you.
22 All the saints send their love to you, specially those who are of Caesar's house.
All the saints greet you, especially those who are of Caesar's household.
23 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit.
The grace of the Lord Yeshua Meshikha be with your spirit.
