Philippians 4:1-13 ▼

1 HENCEFORTH, my dearly beloved brethren, my joy and crown, in this manner stand firm in our LORD, my beloved.

2 I beseech Euodias and I beseech Syntyche to be of one accord in our LORD.

3 I beseech you also, my true yokefellow, help those women who laboured with me in the gospel, together with Clement, and with the rest of my fellowlabourers, whose names are written in the book of life.

4 Rejoice in our LORD alway; and again I say, Rejoice.

5 Let your humility be known to all men. Our LORD is at hand.

6 Do not worry over things; but always by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.

7 And the peace of God, which passes all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Jesus Christ.

8 Finally, my 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 you have learned and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.

10 But I rejoiced in our LORD greatly, that you have continued to care for me, just as you have always cared, even though you yourselves have not had sufficient.

11 Nor am I saying this simply because I am in want; for I have learned to make what I have meet my needs.

12 I know what it is to be poor, and I know what it is to be rich: I have gone through many things and experienced many things, both to be full and to be hungry, both to have plenty and to be in want.

13 I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
