Philippians 2:19-30

19But I hopeG1679 in the LordG2962 JesusG2424 to sendG3992 TimothyG5095 shortly unto you, that I alsoG1161 may be of good comfort, when I knowG1097 your state. 20For I have no man likeminded, who will care truly for your state. 21For they all seekG2212 their ownG1438, not the thingsG3956 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547. 22But ye knowG1097 the proofG1382 of him, that, as a childG5043 serveth a fatherG3962, so he servedG1398 with me in furtherance of the gospelG2098. 23Him thereforeG3767 I hopeG1679 to sendG3992 forthwith, so soon as I shall see howG5613 it will go with me: 24but I trustG3982 in the LordG2962 that I myself alsoG2532 shall comeG2064 shortly. 25But I counted it necessaryG316 to sendG3992 to you EpaphroditusG1891, my brotherG80 and fellow-worker and fellow-soldier, and your messengerG652 and ministerG3011 to my needG5532; 26since he longed after you all, and wasG1510 sore troubled, because ye had heardG191 that he wasG1510 sickG770: 27for indeed he was sickG770 nigh unto deathG2288: but GodG2316 had mercyG1653 on him; and not on him onlyG3441, but on me alsoG2532, that I might not have sorrowG3077 upon sorrowG3077. 28I have sentG3992 him thereforeG3767 the more diligently, that, when ye seeG3708 him againG3825, ye may rejoiceG5463, and that I may beG1510 the less sorrowful. 29ReceiveG4327 him thereforeG3767 in the LordG2962 with all joyG5479; and holdG2192 suchG5108 in honor: 30because for the workG2041 of ChristG5547 he came nigh unto deathG2288, hazarding his lifeG5590 to supply that which was lackingG5303 in your serviceG3009 toward me.
