chapter 4
1
Therefore,
my dearly beloved brethren, and most desired, my joy and my crown; so stand
fast in the Lord, my dearly beloved.
2 I beg of Evodia, and I beseech Syntyche, to be of one
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.
4 Rejoice in the Lord always; again, I say, rejoice.
5 Let your modesty be known to all men. The Lord is
nigh.
6 Be nothing solicitous; but in every thing, by prayer
and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your petitions be made known to God.
7 And the peace of God, which surpasseth all
understanding, keep your hearts and minds 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.
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.
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.
11 I speak not as it were for want. For I have learned,
in whatsoever state I am, to be content therewith.
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.
13 I can do all these things in him who strengtheneth
me.
14 Nevertheless you have done well in communicating to
my tribulation.
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:
16 For unto Thessalonica also you sent once and again
for my use.
17 Not that I seek the gift, but I seek the fruit that
may abound 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.
19 And may my God supply all your want, according to
his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.
20 Now to God and our Father be glory world without
end. Amen.
21 Salute ye every saint in Christ Jesus.
22 The brethren who are with me, salute you. All the
saints salute you; especially they that are of Caesar's household.
23 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your
spirit. Amen.
