Paul and Timothy, servants of Christ Jesus, to all the saints in Christ Jesus who are at Philippi, together with the bishops and deacons:

so that ye may approve the things that are most excellent, in order that ye may be pure and without offence against the day of Christ,

and that the great part of the brethren, made confident in the Lord by my bonds, are much more bold to speak the word without fear.

They who are of love, knowing that I am set for the defence of the gospel;

but they who are of a factious spirit preach Christ with no pure intent, thinking to stir up affliction to my bonds.

that in the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those who are in heaven, and those on earth, and those under the earth,

for all of them are seeking their own things, not those of Christ Jesus.

For we are the circumcision, who worship by the Spirit of God, and glory in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh;

Brethren, I do not reckon myself to have laid hold of it; but one thing I do, forgetting the things that are behind, and stretching forth to the things that are before,

Let us, therefore, as many as are perfect, be of this mind; and if ye have a different mind in anything, even this will God reveal to you.

For many walk, of whom I told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ;

For the country of which we are citizens is heaven, whence also we wait for a Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ,

yea, I entreat thee also, true yokefellow, give them aid; since they labored with me in the gospel, with Clement also, and the rest of my fellowlaborers, whose names are in the book of life.

Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are honorable, whatever things are right, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.

Salute every saint in Christ Jesus. The brethren who are with me salute you.

All the saints salute you, but especially they who are of Caesars household.
