1 Therefore , my brethren dearly beloved and longed for , my joy and crown , so stand fast in the Lord , my dearly beloved .
2 I beseech Euodias , and beseech Syntyche , that they be of the same mind in the Lord .
3 And I intreat thee also , true yokefellow , help those women which laboured with me in the gospel , with Clement also , and with other my fellowlabourers , whose names are in the book of life .
4 Rejoice in the Lord alway : and again I say , Rejoice .
5 Let your moderation be known unto all men . The Lord is at hand .
6 Be careful for nothing ; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God .
7 And the peace of God , which passeth all understanding , shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus .
8 Finally , brethren , whatsoever things are true , whatsoever things are honest , 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 Those things , which ye have both learned , and received , and heard , and seen in me , do : and the God of peace shall be with you .
10 But I rejoiced in the Lord greatly , that now at the last your care of me hath flourished again ; wherein ye were also careful , but ye lacked opportunity .
11 Not that I speak in respect of want : for I have learned , in whatsoever state I am , therewith to be content .
12 G1161 I know both how to be abased , and I know how to abound : every where 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 things through Christ which strengtheneth me .
14 Notwithstanding ye have well done , that ye did communicate with my affliction .
15 Now ye Philippians know also , that in the beginning of the gospel , when I departed from Macedonia , no church communicated with me as concerning giving and receiving , but ye only .
16 For even in Thessalonica ye sent once and again unto my necessity .
17 Not because I desire a gift : but I desire fruit that may abound to your account .
18 But I have all , and abound : I am full , having received of Epaphroditus the things which were sent from you , an odour of a sweet smell , a sacrifice acceptable , wellpleasing to God .
19 But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus .
20 Now unto God and our Father be glory for ever and ever . Amen .
21 Salute every saint in Christ Jesus . The brethren which are with me greet you .
22 All the saints salute you , chiefly they that are of Caesar's household .
23 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all . Amen . To the Philippians written from Rome , by Epaphroditus .
