Philippians 4:6-23 ▼

6 be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer, and by supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God;

7 and the peace of God, that is surpassing all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus.

8 As to the rest, brothers, as many things as are true, as many as [are] revered, as many as [are] righteous, as many as [are] pure, as many as [are] lovely, as many as [are] of good report, if any worthiness, and if any praise, think on these things;

9 the things that you also learned, and receive, and hear, and saw in me, do those, and the God of peace will be with you.

10 And I rejoiced in the LORD greatly, that now at length you flourished again in caring for me, for which also you were caring, and lacked opportunity;

11 I do not say that in respect of want, for I learned in the things in which I am—to be content;

12 I have known both to be abased, and I have known to abound; in everything and in all things I have been initiated, both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to be in want.

13 I have strength for all things, in Christ’s strengthening me;

14 but you did well, having shared in my tribulation;

15 and you have known, even you Philippians, that in the beginning of the good news when I went forth from Macedonia, no assembly communicated with me in regard to giving and receiving except you only;

16 because in Thessalonica also, both once and again you sent to my need;

17 not that I seek after the gift, but I seek after the fruit that is overflowing to your account;

18 and I have all things, and abound; I am filled, having received from Epaphroditus the things from you—an odor of a refreshing fragrance—a sacrifice acceptable, well-pleasing to God:

19 and my God will supply all your need, according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus;

20 and to God, even our Father, [is] the glory through the ages of the ages. Amen.

21 Every holy one in Christ Jesus greets you; the brothers with me greet you;

22 all the holy ones greet you, and especially those of Caesar’s house.

23 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [is] with you all! Amen.
