PHI 1:1 Paul and Timotheus, the servants of Jesus Christ, to all the saints in
Christ Jesus which are at Philippi, with the bishops and deacons:
PHI 1:2 Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord
Jesus Christ.
PHI 1:3 I thank my God upon every remembrance of you,
PHI 1:4 Always in every prayer of mine for you all making request with joy,
PHI 1:5 For your fellowship in the gospel from the first day until now;
PHI 1:6 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:
PHI 1:7 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.
PHI 1:8 For God is my record, how greatly I long after you all in the bowels
of Jesus Christ.
PHI 1:9 And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in
knowledge and in all judgment;
PHI 1:10 That ye may approve things that are excellent; that ye may be sincere
and without offence till the day of Christ.
PHI 1:11 Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus
Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.
PHI 1:12 But I would ye should understand, brethren, that the things which
happened unto me have fallen out rather unto the furtherance of the gospel;
PHI 1:13 So that my bonds in Christ are manifest in all the palace, and in all
other places;
PHI 1:14 And many of the brethren in the Lord, waxing confident by my bonds,
are much more bold to speak the word without fear.
PHI 1:15 Some indeed preach Christ even of envy and strife; and some also of
good will:
PHI 1:16 The one preach Christ of contention, not sincerely, supposing to add
affliction to my bonds:
PHI 1:17 But the other of love, knowing that I am set for the defence of the
gospel.
PHI 1:18 What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in pretence, or in
truth, Christ is preached; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice.
PHI 1:19 For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your
prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,
PHI 1:20 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.
PHI 1:21 For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.
PHI 1:22 But if I live in the flesh, this is the fruit of my labour: yet what
I shall choose I wot not.
PHI 1:23 For I am in a strait betwixt two, having a desire to depart, and to
be with Christ; which is far better:
PHI 1:24 Nevertheless to abide in the flesh is more needful for you.
PHI 1:25 And having this confidence, I know that I shall abide and continue
with you all for your furtherance and joy of faith;
PHI 1:26 That your rejoicing may be more abundant in Jesus Christ for me by my
coming to you again.
PHI 1:27 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;
PHI 1:28 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.
PHI 1:29 For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe
on him, but also to suffer for his sake;
PHI 1:30 Having the same conflict which ye saw in me, and now hear to be in
me.
PHI 2:1 If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of
love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels and mercies,
PHI 2:2 Fulfil ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same love, being
of one accord, of one mind.
PHI 2:3 Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of
mind let each esteem other better than themselves.
PHI 2:4 Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things
of others.
PHI 2:5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
PHI 2:6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with
God:
PHI 2:7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a
servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
PHI 2:8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became
obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
PHI 2:9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which
is above every name:
PHI 2:10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in
heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
PHI 2:11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord,
to the glory of God the Father.
PHI 2:12 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.
PHI 2:13 For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good
pleasure.
PHI 2:14 Do all things without murmurings and disputings:
PHI 2:15 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;
PHI 2:16 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.
PHI 2:17 Yea, and if I be offered upon the sacrifice and service of your
faith, I joy, and rejoice with you all.
PHI 2:18 For the same cause also do ye joy, and rejoice with me.
PHI 2:19 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.
PHI 2:20 For I have no man likeminded, who will naturally care for your state.
PHI 2:21 For all seek their own, not the things which are Jesus Christ's.
PHI 2:22 But ye know the proof of him, that, as a son with the father, he hath
served with me in the gospel.
PHI 2:23 Him therefore I hope to send presently, so soon as I shall see how it
will go with me.
PHI 2:24 But I trust in the Lord that I also myself shall come shortly.
PHI 2:25 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.
PHI 2:26 For he longed after you all, and was full of heaviness, because that
ye had heard that he had been sick.
PHI 2:27 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.
PHI 2:28 I sent him therefore the more carefully, that, when ye see him again,
ye may rejoice, and that I may be the less sorrowful.
PHI 2:29 Receive him therefore in the Lord with all gladness; and hold such in
reputation:
PHI 2:30 Because for the work of Christ he was nigh unto death, not regarding
his life, to supply your lack of service toward me.
PHI 3:1 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.
PHI 3:2 Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision.
PHI 3:3 For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and
rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh.
PHI 3:4 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:
PHI 3:5 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;
PHI 3:6 Concerning zeal, persecuting the church; touching the righteousness
which is in the law, blameless.
PHI 3:7 But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ.
PHI 3:8 Yea doubtless, and I
