as it is right for me to think this of you all, because I have you in my heart; both in my bonds and in my defense and confirmation of the gospel, I say I have you all in my heart as being joint par takers of my grace.

so that my bonds which are for Christ have become known to be such in all the palace, and in all other places;

according to my earnest expectation and hope, that in nothing shall I be ashamed, but with all boldness, as at all times, so even now, Christ will be magnified in my body, whether by life or by death.

Only conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of the Christ, that, whether I come and see you, or be absent, I may hear of your affairs, that you stand fast in one spirit, with one soul striving together for the faith of the gospel,

since you have the same conflict that you saw in me, and now hear to be in me.

So, then, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling;

For many walk, of whom I often said to you, and now say even weeping, that they are enemies of the cross of the Christ,

So, then, my brethren, beloved and ardently desired, my joy and my crown, so stand fast in the Lord, my beloved.

Rejoice in the Lord always; and again I say, Rejoice.

Now you Philippians know also, that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church contributed to me so that I kept an account of giving and receiving, but you only.

All the saints salute you, especially those who are of Caesar's household.
