11  Paul and Timotheus the servants of Jesus Christ to all the 
saints in Christ Jesus which are at Philippi with the bishops 
and deacons .

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

13  I thank my God upon every remembrance of you .

14  Always in every prayer of mine for you all making request 
with joy .

15  For your fellowship in the gospel from the first day until 
now .

16  Being confident of this very thing that he which hath begun 
a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ 
.

17  Even as it is meet for me to think this of you all because I 
have you in my heart inasmuch as both in my bonds and in the 
defence and confirmation of the gospel ye all are partakers of 
my grace .

18  For God is my record how greatly I long after you all in the 
bowels of Jesus Christ .

19  And this I pray that your love may abound yet more and more 
in knowledge and in all judgment .

110  That ye may approve things that are excellent that ye may 
be sincere and without offence till the day of Christ .

111  Being filled with the fruits of righteousness which are by 
Jesus Christ unto the glory and praise of God .

112  But I would ye should understand brethren that the things 
which happened unto me have fallen out rather unto the 
furtherance of the gospel .

113  So that my bonds in Christ are manifest in all the palace 
and in all other places .

114  And many of the brethren in the Lord waxing confident by my 
bonds are much more bold to speak the word without fear .

115  Some indeed preach Christ even of envy and strife and some 
also of good will .

116  The one preach Christ of contention not sincerely supposing 
to add affliction to my bonds .

117  But the other of love knowing that I am set for the defence 
of the gospel .

118  What then notwithstanding every way whether in pretence or 
in truth Christ is preached and I therein do rejoice yea and 
will rejoice .

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

120  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 .

121  For to me to live is Christ and to die is gain .

122  But if I live in the flesh this is the fruit of my labour 
yet what I shall choose I wot not .

123  For I am in a strait betwixt two having a desire to depart 
and to be with Christ which is far better .

124  Nevertheless to abide in the flesh is more needful for you .

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

126  That your rejoicing may be more abundant in Jesus Christ 
for me by my coming to you again .

127  Only let your conversation be as it becometh the gospel of 
Christ that whether I come and see you or else be absent I may 
hear of your affairs that ye stand fast in one spirit with one 
mind striving together for the faith of the gospel .

128  And in nothing terrified by your adversaries which is to 
them an evident token of perdition but to you of salvation and 
that of God .

129  For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ not only 
to believe on him but also to suffer for his sake .

130  Having the same conflict which ye saw in me and now hear to 
be in me .

* 21  If there be therefore any consolation in Christ if any 
comfort of love if any fellowship of the Spirit if any bowels 
and mercies .

22  Fulfil ye my joy that ye be likeminded having the same love 
being of one accord of one mind .

23  Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory but in 
lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves .

24  Look not every man on his own things but every man also on 
the things of others .

25  Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus .

26  Who being in the form of God thought it not robbery to be 
equal with God .

27  But made himself of no reputation and took upon him the form 
of a servant and was made in the likeness of men .

28  And being found in fashion as a man he humbled himself and 
became obedient unto death even the death of the cross .

29  Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him and given him a 
name which is above every name .

210  That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow of things 
in heaven and things in earth and things under the earth .

211  And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is 
Lord to the glory of God the Father .

212  Wherefore my beloved as ye 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 .

213  For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do 
of his good pleasure .

214  Do all things without murmurings and disputings .

215  That ye may be blameless and harmless the sons of God 
without rebuke in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation 
among whom ye shine as lights in the world .

216  Holding forth the word of life that I may rejoice in the 
day of Christ that I have not run in vain neither laboured in 
vain .

217  Yea and if I be offered upon the sacrifice and service of 
your faith I joy and rejoice with you all .

218  For the same cause also do ye joy and rejoice with me .

219  But I trust in the Lord Jesus to send Timotheus shortly 
unto you that I also may be of good comfort when I know your 
state .

220  For I have no man likeminded who will naturally care for 
your state .

221  For all seek their own not the things which are Jesus 
Christ's .

222  But ye know the proof of him that as a son with the father 
he hath served with me in the gospel .

223  Him therefore I hope to send presently so soon as I shall 
see how it will go with me .

224  But I trust in the Lord that I also myself shall come 
shortly .

225  Yet I supposed it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus my 
brother and companion in labour and fellowsoldier but your 
messenger and he that ministered to my wants .

226  For he longed after you all and was full of heaviness 
because that ye had heard that he had been sick .

227  For indeed he was sick nigh unto death but God had mercy on 
him and not on him only but on me also lest I should have sorrow 
upon sorrow .

228  I sent him therefore the more carefully that when ye see 
him again ye may rejoice and that I may be the less sorrowful .

229  Receive him therefore in the Lord with all gladness and 
hold such in reputation .

230  Because for the work of Christ he was nigh unto death not 
regarding his life to supply your lack of service toward me .

* 31  Finally my brethren rejoice in the Lord To write the same 
things to you to me indeed is not grievous but for you it is 
safe .

32  Beware of dogs beware of evil workers beware of the 
concision .

33  For we are the circumcision which worship God in the spirit 
and rejoice in Christ Jesus and have no confidence in the flesh .

34  Though I might also have confidence in the flesh If any 
other man thinketh that he hath whereof he might trust in the 
flesh I more .

35  Circumcised the eighth day of the stock of Israel of the 
tribe of Benjamin an Hebrew of the Hebrews as touching the law a 
Pharisee .

36  Concerning zeal persecuting the church touching the 
righteousness which is in the law blameless .

37  But what things were gain to me those I counted loss for 
Christ .

38  Yea doubtless and I count all things but loss for the 
excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord for whom I 
have suffered the loss of all things and do count them but dung 
that I may win Christ .

39  And be found in him not having mine own righteousness which 
is of the law but that which is through the faith of Christ the 
righteousness which is of God by faith .

310  That I may know him and the power of his resurrection and 
the fellowship of his sufferings being made conformable unto his 
death .

311  If by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the 
dead .

312  Not as though I had already attained either were already 
perfect but I follow after if that I may apprehend that for 
which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus .

313  Brethren I count not myself to have apprehended but this 
one thing I do forgetting those things which are behind and 
reaching forth unto those things which are before .

314  I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling 
of God in Christ Jesus .

315  Let us therefore as many as be perfect be thus minded and 
if in any thing ye be otherwise minded God shall reveal even 
this unto you .

316  Nevertheless whereto we have already attained let us walk 
by the same rule let us mind the same thing .

317  Brethren be followers together of me and mark them which 
walk so as ye have us for an ensample .

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

319  Whose end is destruction whose God is their belly and whose 
glory is in their shame who mind earthly things .

320  For our conversation is in heaven from whence also we look 
for the Savior the Lord Jesus Christ .

321  Who shall change our vile body that it may be fashioned 
like unto his glorious body according to the working whereby he 
is able even to subdue all things unto himself .

* 41  Therefore my brethren dearly beloved and longed for my joy 
and crown so stand fast in the Lord my dearly beloved .

42  I beseech Euodias and beseech Syntyche that they be of the 
same mind in the Lord .

43  And I entreat thee also true yokefellow help those women 
which laboured with me in the gospel with Clement also and with 
other my fellowlabourers whose names are in the book of life .

44  Rejoice in the Lord alway and again I say Rejoice .

45  Let your moderation be known unto all men The Lord is at 
hand .

46  Be careful for nothing but in every thing by prayer and 
supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known 
unto God .

47  And the peace of God which passeth all understanding shall 
keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus .

48  Finally brethren whatsoever things are true whatsoever 
things are honest whatsoever things are just whatsoever things 
are pure whatsoever things are lovely whatsoever things are of 
good report if there be any virtue and if there be any praise 
think on these things .

49  Those things which ye have both learned and received and 
heard and seen in me do and the God of peace shall be with you .

410  But I rejoiced in the Lord greatly that now at the last 
your care of me hath flourished again wherein ye were also 
careful but ye lacked opportunity .

411  Not that I speak in respect of want for I have learned in 
whatsoever state I am therewith to be content .

412  I know both how to be abased and I know how to abound every 
where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to 
be hungry both to abound and to suffer need .

413  I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me .

414  Notwithstanding ye have well done that ye did communicate 
with my affliction .

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

416  For even in Thessalonica ye sent once and again unto my 
necessity .

417  Not because I desire a gift but I desire fruit that may 
abound to your account .

418  But I have all and abound I am full having received of 
Epaphroditus the things which were sent from you an odour of a 
sweet smell a sacrifice acceptable wellpleasing to God .

419  But my God shall supply all your need according to his 
riches in glory by Christ Jesus .

420  Now unto God and our Father be glory for ever and ever Amen 
.

421  Salute every saint in Christ Jesus The brethren which are 
with me greet you .

422  All the saints salute you chiefly they that are of Caesar's 
household .

423  The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all Amen .
