* Therefore , my beloved and longed for brothers , my joy and crown , in this way stand fast in the Lord , beloved . * I implore Euodia and I implore Syntyche to be of the same mind in the Lord . * Yes , I ask you also , true companion , help these women who labored together with me in the gospel , and with Clement also , and the rest of my fellow workers , whose names are in the Book of Life . * Rejoice in the Lord always . Again I will say , rejoice ! * Let your gentleness be known to all men . The Lord is at hand . * Be anxious for nothing , but in everything by prayer and petition , along with thanksgiving , let your requests be made known to God ; * and the peace of God , which surpasses all understanding , shall guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus . * Finally , brothers , as many things as are true , as many as are honorable , as many as are just , as many as are pure , as many as are lovely-if there is any virtue and if there is any praise-meditate on these things . * The things which you learned and received and heard and saw in me , practice these things ; and the God of peace shall be with you . * But I rejoiced in the Lord greatly that now once [again ] you have revived your mindfulness on my behalf , inasmuch as indeed you were mindful , but you lacked opportunity . * Not that I am speaking with respect to need , for I have learned to be content in whatever state I am . * I know how to be abased , and I know how to abound . In every place and in all [circumstances ] I have learned both to be full and to be hungry , both to abound and to be in need . * I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me . * Nevertheless you have done well that you shared in my affliction . * Now you Philippians also know that in the beginning of the gospel , when I went out from Macedonia , no church shared with me in an accounting of giving and receiving except you only . * Because even in Thessalonica , both once and again you sent for my need . * Not that I seek the gift , but I seek the fruit which is increasing to your account . * And I have all things and abound . I have been made full , having received from Epaphroditus the things [sent ] from you , a fragrant aroma , an acceptable sacrifice , well pleasing to God . * And my God will supply all your need according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus . * Now to our God and Father be glory forever and ever . Amen . * Greet every saint in Christ Jesus . The brothers who are with me greet you . * All the saints greet you , but especially those of the household of Caesar . * The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with you all . Amen .
