Philippians 4
Php 4:1 Therefore, my
brothers, beloved and longed for, my joy and crown, so stand firm in
the Lord, my beloved.
Php 4:2 I exhort
Euodia, and I exhort Syntyche, to think the same way in the Lord.
Php 4:3 Yes, I beg you
also, true yokefellow, help these women, for they labored with me in
the Good News, with Clement also, and the rest of my fellow workers,
whose names are in the book of life.
Php 4:4 Rejoice in the
Lord always! Again I will say, Rejoice!
Php 4:5 Let your
gentleness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand.
Php 4:6 In nothing be
anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving,
let your requests be made known to God.
Php 4:7 And the peace
of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and
your thoughts in Christ Jesus.
Php 4:8 Finally,
brothers, whatever things are true, whatever things are honorable,
whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things
are lovely, whatever things are of good report; if there is any
virtue, and if there is any praise, think about these things.
Php 4:9 The things
which you learned, received, heard, and saw in me: do these things,
and the God of peace will be with you.
Php 4:10 But I rejoice
in the Lord greatly, that now at length you have revived your thought
for me; in which you did indeed take thought, but you lacked
opportunity.
Php 4:11 Not that I
speak in respect to lack, for I have learned in whatever state I am,
to be content in it.
Php 4:12 I know how to
be humbled, and I know also how to abound. In everything and in all
things I have learned the secret both to be filled and to be hungry,
both to abound and to be in need.
Php 4:13 I can do all
things through Christ, who strengthens me.
Php 4:14 However you
did well that you shared in my affliction.
Php 4:15 You yourselves
also know, you Philippians, that in the beginning of the Good News,
when I departed from Macedonia, no assembly shared with me in the
matter of giving and receiving but you only.
Php 4:16 For even in
Thessalonica you sent once and again to my need.
Php 4:17 Not that I
seek for the gift, but I seek for the fruit that increases to your
account.
Php 4:18 But I have all
things, and abound. I am filled, having received from Epaphroditus
the things that came from you, a sweet-smelling fragrance, an
acceptable and well-pleasing sacrifice to God.
Php 4:19 My God will
supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ
Jesus.
Php 4:20 Now to our God
and Father be the glory forever and ever! Amen.
Php 4:21 Greet every
saint in Christ Jesus. The brothers who are with me greet you.
Php 4:22 All the saints
greet you, especially those who are of Caesar's household.
Php 4:23 The grace of
the Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.
