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

Because of your help in giving the good news from the first day till now;

These do it from love, conscious that I am responsible for the cause of the good news:

But those are preaching Christ in a spirit of competition, not from their hearts, but with the purpose of giving me pain in my prison.

Only let your behaviour do credit to the good news of Christ, so that if I come and see you or if I am away from you, I may have news of you that you are strong in one spirit, working together with one soul for the faith of the good news;

Having no fear of those who are against you; which is a clear sign of their destruction, but of your salvation, and that from God;

That I may have knowledge of him, and of the power of his coming back from the dead, and a part with him in his pains, becoming like him in his death;

If in any way I may have the reward of life from the dead.

For our country is in heaven; from where the Saviour for whom we are waiting will come, even the Lord Jesus Christ:

And you have knowledge, Philippians, that when the good news first came to you, when I went away from Macedonia, no church took part with me in the business of giving to the saints, but you only;

I have all things and more than enough: I am made full, having had from Epaphroditus the things which came from you, a perfume of a sweet smell, an offering well pleasing to God.

And my God will give you all you have need of from the wealth of his glory in Christ Jesus.
