1 Paul & Timotheus the seruauntes of Iesus Christ: To all the saintes in Christ Iesus, whiche are at Philippos, with the bisshops & deacons: 2 Grace be vnto you, and peace fro God our father, and from the Lorde Iesus Christ. 3 I thanke my God, with all remembraunce of you, 4 ( Alwayes in all my prayer for all you, makyng prayer with gladnesse,) 5 For your felowship in the Gospell, fro the first day vntyll nowe. 6 And beyng perswaded of this same thyng, that he which hath begun good worke in you, wyll perfourme it vntyll the day of Iesus Christe, 7 As it becommeth me to iudge this of you al, because I haue you in my heart, and in my bondes, in the defence and confirmation of the Gospell, you all beyng partakers of my grace. 8 For God is my recorde howe greatly I long after you all, in the bowels of Iesus Christe. 9 And this I pray, that your loue may abounde yet more and more in knowledge, and in all vnderstandyng: 10 That ye maye discerne thynges that differ, that ye maye be pure, and without offence, tyll the day of Christe. 11 Beyng fylled with the fruites of righteousnesse, which are by Iesus Christ, vnto the glorie and prayse of God. 12 But I woulde ye should vnderstande brethren, that the thinges which came vnto me, hath come rather vnto the furtheraunce of the Gospell: 13 So that my bondes in Christe, are manifest, throughout all the iudgement hall, and in all other places.
