Translation - Philippians Chapter 4
1 ¶ HENCEFORTH, my dearly beloved brethren, my joy
and crown, in this manner stand firm in our Lord, my beloved.
2 I beseech Euodias and I beseech Syntyche to be of
one accord in our Lord.
3 I beseech you also, my true yokefellow, help those
women who laboured with me in the gospel, together with Clement, and with the
rest of my fellow labourers, whose names are written in the book of life.
4 Rejoice in our Lord always; and again I say,
Rejoice.
5 Let your humility be known to all men. Our Lord is
at hand.
6 Do not worry over things, but always by prayer and
supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.
7 And the peace of God, which passes all
understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Jesus Christ.
8 Finally, my brethren, whatever is true, whatever is
honest, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of
good report; if there is any virtue and if there is any praise, think about
these things.
9 Those things which you have learned and received
and heard and seen in me, do; and the God of peace shall be with you.
10 ¶ But I rejoiced in our Lord greatly, that you
have continued to care for me, just as you have always cared, even though you
yourselves have not had sufficient.
11 Nor am I saying this simply because I am in want;
for I have learned to make what I have sufficient to meet my needs.
12 I know what it is to be poor, and I know what it
is to be rich; I have gone through many things and experienced many things,
both to be full and to be hungry, both to have plenty and to be in want.
13 I can do all things through Christ who strengthens
me.
14 But you have done well to share my difficulties.
15 Now you Philippians know also that in the
beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church shared with
me as concerning giving and receiving, but you only.
16 For even at Thessalonica you sent more than once
to meet my needs.
17 I do not say this because I want a gift, but
because I want to see the fruits of the gospel increased to you.
18 I have received everything I need, and it is more
than enough; I am satisfied, having received everything you sent me by
Epaphroditus, and it was welcome as a fragrant perfume and a sacrifice
acceptable and well pleasing to God.
19 But my God will supply all your needs according to
his riches in the glory of Jesus Christ.
20 ¶ Now to God our Father be glory and honour for
ever and ever. Amen.
21 Salute every saint in Jesus Christ. The brethren
who are with me greet you.
22 All the saints salute you, especially those who
are of Caesar’s household.
23 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you
all. Amen.
