Grace and peace unto you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

for your fellowship in the gospel from the first clay until now;

the latter from divine love, knowing that I am set for the defence of the gospel:

the former from self-seeking are proclaiming Christ insincerely, thinking that they will add affliction to my bonds.

and not being intimidated in anything by the adversaries: which is to them the manifestation of destruction, but of your salvation, and this is from God;

who, being in the form of God, thought it not usurpation to be equal with God,

but he humbled himself, having taken the form of a servant, being in the likeness of men; and having been found in fashion like a man;

if perchance I may attain unto the resurrection which is out from the dead.

And you indeed know, O Philippians, that in the beginning of the gospel, when I came out from Macedonia, no church communicated with me in the word of giving and receiving, except you alone;

But I have all things, and I abound: I am full, having received from Epaphroditus those things from you, an odor of a sweet savor, a sacrifice acceptable, well-pleasing to God.

All the saints, and especially those from the house of Caesar, salute you.
