Philippians 4
1 Therefore, my dearly beloved brethren, and most desired, my joy and my crown; so stand fast in the Lord, my dearly beloved.
Wherefore, my brethren beloved and longed for, my joy and crown, so stand fast in the Lord, my beloved.
2 I beg of Evodia, and I beseech Syntyche, to be of one mind in the Lord.
I exhort Euodia, and I exhort Syntyche, to be of the same mind in the Lord.
3 And I entreat thee also, my sincere companion, help those women who have laboured with me in the gospel, with Clement and the rest of my fellow labourers, whose names are in the book of life.
Yea, I beseech thee also, true yokefellow, help these women, for they labored with me in the gospel, with Clement also, and the rest of my fellow-workers, whose names are in the book of life.
4 Rejoice in the Lord always; again, I say, rejoice.
Rejoice in the Lord always: again I will say, Rejoice.
5 Let your modesty be known to all men. The Lord is nigh.
Let your forbearance be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand.
6 Be nothing solicitous; but in every thing, by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your petitions be made known to God.
In nothing be anxious; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
7 And the peace of God, which surpasseth all understanding, keep your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.
And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus.
8 For the rest, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever modest, whatsoever just, whatsoever holy, whatsoever lovely, whatsoever of good fame, if there be any virtue, if any praise of discipline, think on these things.
Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honorable, 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 The things which you have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, these do ye, and the God of peace shall be with you.
The things which ye both learned and received and heard and saw in me, these things do: and the God of peace shall be with you.
10 Now I rejoice in the Lord exceedingly, that now at length your thought for me hath flourished again, as you did also think; but you were busied.
But I rejoice in the Lord greatly, that now at length ye have revived your thought for me; wherein ye did indeed take thought, but ye lacked opportunity.
11 I speak not as it were for want. For I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, to be content therewith.
Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therein to be content.
12 I know both how to be brought low, and I know how to abound: (everywhere, and in all things I am instructed) both to be full, and to be hungry; both to abound, and to suffer need.
I know how to be abased, and I know also how to abound: in everything and in all things have I learned the secret both to be filled and to be hungry, both to abound and to be in want.
13 I can do all these things in him who strengtheneth me.
I can do all things in him that strengtheneth me.
14 Nevertheless you have done well in communicating to my tribulation.
Howbeit ye did well that ye had fellowship with my affliction.
15 And you also know, O Philippians, that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church communicated with me as concerning giving and receiving, but you only:
And ye yourselves also know, ye Philippians, that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church had fellowship with me in the matter of giving and receiving but ye only;
16 For unto Thessalonica also you sent once and again for my use.
for even in Thessalonica ye sent once and again unto my need.
17 Not that I seek the gift, but I seek the fruit that may abound to your account.
Not that I seek for the gift; but I seek for the fruit that increaseth to your account.
18 But I have all, and abound: I am filled, having received from Epaphroditus the things you sent, an odour of sweetness, an acceptable sacrifice, pleasing to God.
But I have all things, and abound: I am filled, having received from Epaphroditus the things [that came] from you, an odor of a sweet smell, a sacrifice acceptable, well-pleasing to God.
19 And may my God supply all your want, according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.
And my God shall supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.
Now unto our God and Father [be] the glory for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
21 Salute ye every saint in Christ Jesus.
Salute every saint in Christ Jesus. The brethren that are with me salute you.
22 The brethren who are with me, salute you. All the saints salute you; especially they that are of Caesar’s household.
All the saints salute you, especially they that are of Cæsar’s household.
23 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.
The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit.
