For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,

According to my earnest expectation and my hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life, or by death.

But if I live in the flesh, this is the fruit of my labor: yet what I shall choose I know not.

And having this confidence, I know that I shall abide and continue with you all for your furtherance and joy of faith;

Having the same conflict which you saw in me, and now hear to be in me.

But I rejoiced in the Lord greatly, that now at the last your care of me has flourished again; in which you were also concerned, but you lacked opportunity.

I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: everywhere and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need.

Now you Philippians know also, that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church shared with me as concerning giving and receiving, but you only.

Now unto God and our Father be glory forever and ever. Amen.
