| 1[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 1So then, my dearly loved and longed for brothers and sisters, my joy and crown, in this manner stand firm in the Lord, dear friends. |
| 2[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 2I urge Euodia and I urge Syntyche to agree in the Lord. |
| 3[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 3Yes, I also ask you, true partner, to help these women who have contended for the gospel at my side, along with Clement and the rest of my coworkers whose names are in the book of life. |
| 4[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 4Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! |
| 5[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 5Let your graciousness be known to everyone. The Lord is near. |
| 6[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 6Don't worry about anything, but in everything, through prayer and petition with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. |
| 7[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 7And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus. |
| 8[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 8Finally brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable--if there is any moral excellence and if there is anything praiseworthy--dwell on these things. |
| 9[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 9Do what you have learned and received and heard from me, and seen in me, and the God of peace will be with you. |
| 10[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 10I rejoiced in the Lord greatly because once again you renewed your care for me. You were, in fact, concerned about me but lacked the opportunity to show it. |
| 11[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 11I don't say this out of need, for I have learned to be content in whatever circumstances I find myself. |
| 12[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 12I know both how to make do with little, and I know how to make do with a lot. In any and all circumstances I have learned the secret of being content--whether well fed or hungry, whether in abundance or in need. |
| 13[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 13I am able to do all things through him who strengthens me. |
| 14[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 14Still, you did well by partnering with me in my hardship. |
| 15[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 15And you Philippians know that in the early days of the gospel, when I left Macedonia, no church shared with me in the matter of giving and receiving except you alone. |
| 16[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 16For even in Thessalonica you sent gifts for my need several times. |
| 17[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 17Not that I seek the gift, but I seek the profit that is increasing to your account. |
| 18[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 18But I have received everything in full, and I have an abundance. I am fully supplied, having received from Epaphroditus what you provided--a fragrant offering, an acceptable sacrifice, pleasing to God. |
| 19[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 19And my God will supply all your needs according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus. |
| 20[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 20Now to our God and Father be glory forever and ever. Amen. |
| 21[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 21Greet every saint in Christ Jesus. The brothers who are with me send you greetings. |
| 22[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 22All the saints send you greetings, especially those who belong to Caesar's household. |
| 23[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 23The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. |
