Philippians 4
1 Herefore(Therefore my) brethren dearly beloved and longed for, my joy and crown, so continue beloved in the Lord.(so continue in the lorde ye beloved)
2 I pray Euodias, and beseech Sintiches that they be of one accord(mind) in the Lord.
3 Yea and I beseech thee faithful yokefellow, help the women which laboured with me in the gospel,(gospell) and with Clement also, and with other my labour fellows, whose names are in the book of life.
4 Rejoice in the Lord alway, and again I say rejoice.
5 Let your softness be known unto all men. The Lord is even at hand.
6 Be not careful: but in all things shew your petition unto God in prayer and supplication with giving of thanks.
7 And the peace of God which passeth all understanding keep your hearts, and minds in Christ Jesu.
8 Furthermore brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things pertain to love, whatsoever things are of honest report, if there be any virtuous thing, if there be any laudable thing, (of learning) those same have ye in your mind,
9 which ye have both learned and received, heard and also seen in me: those things do, and the God of peace shall be with you.
10 I rejoice in the Lord greatly, that now at the last ye are revived, and are waxed mindful of(again to care for) me again in that wherein ye were also mindful,(carefull) but ye lacked opportunity.
11 I speak not because of necessity. For I have learned in whatsoever estate I am, therewith to be content.
12 I can both cast down myself, I can also exceed.(I can be low, and I can be hye) Everywhere, and in all things I am instructed,(mete) both to be full, and to be hungry: to have plenty, and to suffer need.
13 I can do all things thorow the help of Christ, which strengtheneth me.
14 Notwithstanding ye have well done, that ye bare part with me in my tribulation.
15 Ye of Philippos know that in the beginning of the gospel,(gospell) when I departed from Macedonia, no congregation bare part with me as concerning giving and receiving but ye only.
16 For when I was in Thessalonica, ye sent once, and afterward again, unto my needs:(necessity)
17 not that I desire(seek) gifts: but I desire(seek) abundant fruit on your part.(in your reckoning)
18 I received all, and have plenty. I was even filled after that I had(have) received of Epaphroditus, that which came from you, an odor that smelleth sweet, a sacrifice accepted and pleasant to God.
19 My God fulfil all your needs thorow his glorious riches in Jesu Christ.
20 Unto God and our father be praise for ever more Amen.
21 Salute all the saints in Christ Jesu. The brethren which are with me greet you.
22 All the saints salute you: and most of all(specially) they which are of the emperors household.
23 The grace of our Lord Jesu Christ be with you all Amen. [Here ends the epistle of saint Paul the Apostle unto the Philippians, Sent from Rome by Epaphroditus.]
