‏ Philippians 4

1Wherefore, my beloved and dear brethren, my joy and my crown!-so stand ye fast in our Lord, my beloved! 2I beseech of Euodias and Syntyche, that they be of one mind in our Lord. 3I also beseech of thee, my true yokefellow, that thou assist those women who toiled with me in the gospel; together with Clement, and with the rest of my helpers, whose names are written in the book of life. 4Rejoice ye in our Lord, at all times; and again I say, Rejoice. 5Let your humility be recognized among all men. Our Lord is near. 6Be anxious for nothing; but at all times, by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, make known your requests before God. 7And the peace of God, which surpasseth all knowledge, will keep your hearts and your minds, through Jesus the Messiah. 8Finally, my brethren, what things are true, and what things are decorous, and what things are right, and what things are pure, and what things are lovely, and what things are commendable, and deeds of praise and approbation, on these be your thoughts. 9What things ye have learned, and received, and heard, and seen, in me, these do ye: and the God of peace will be with you. 10And I rejoice greatly in our Lord, that ye have again commenced caring for me; even as ye had before cared for me, but ye had not the opportunity. 11Yet I say this, not because I was in want; for I have learned to make that satisfy me, which I have. 12I know how to be depressed, and I also know how to abound in every thing; and in all things am I exercised, both in fullness and in famine, in abundance and in penury. 13I find strength for every thing, in the Messiah who strengtheneth me. 14Yet ye have done well, in that ye communicated to my necessities. 15And ye know also, Philippians, that in the beginning of the annunciation, when I left Macedonia, not one of the churches communicated with me in respect to receiving and giving, except ye only; 16that also at Thessalonica, once and again ye sent me relief. 17Not that I desire a gift; but I wish fruits may multiply unto you. 18I have now received all, and I abound, and am full: and I accepted all that ye sent to me by Epaphroditus, a sweet odor, and an acceptable sacrifice that pleaseth God. 19And may God supply all your necessity, according to his riches, in the glory of Jesus the Messiah. 20And to God our Father, be glory and honor, for ever and ever. Amen. 21Salute all the saints who are in Jesus the Messiah. The brethren who are with me, salute you. 22All the saints salute you, especially those of Caesar's household. 23The grace of our Lord Jesus the Messiah, be with you all. Amen.
