Philippians 2:17-30

17ButG235 evenG2532 ifG1487 I am being poured out like a drink offeringG4689 onG1909 theG3588 sacrificeG2378 andG2532 serviceG3009 ofG3588 yourG4771 faithG4102, I am gladG5463 andG2532 rejoice withG4796 allG3956 of youG4771. 18SoG846 youG4771 tooG2532 should be gladG5463 andG2532 rejoice withG4796 meG1473.

19NowG1161 I hopeG1679 inG1722 the LordG2962 JesusG2424 to sendG3992 TimothyG5095 to youG4771 soonG5030, thatG2443 I alsoG2504 may be cheeredG2174 when I learnG1097G3588 howG4012 you are doingG4771. 20I haveG2192 nobody elseG3762 like himG2473 whoG3748 will genuinelyG1104 care forG3309 yourG4771 needsG3588G4012. 21ForG1063 allG3956 theG3588 others look afterG2212 their ownG1438 interestsG3588, notG3756 thoseG3588 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547. 22ButG1161 you knowG1097 Timothy’s proven worthG1382, thatG3754 asG5613 a childG5043 with his fatherG3962 he has servedG1398 withG4862 meG1473 toG1519 advance theG3588 gospelG2098. 23SoG3767G3303 I hopeG1679 to sendG3992 himG3778 as soon asG1824G5613G302 I seeG872 what happensG3588 withG4012 meG1473. 24AndG1161 I trustG3982 inG1722 the LordG2962 thatG3754 I myselfG846G2532 will comeG2064 soonG5030.

25ButG1161 I thoughtG2233 it necessaryG316 to send backG3992 toG4314 youG4771 EpaphroditusG1891, myG1473 brotherG80, fellow workerG4904, andG2532 fellow soldierG4961, who is alsoG1161 yourG4771 messengerG652 andG2532 ministerG3011 to myG1473 needsG5532. 26ForG1894 he has beenG1510 longing forG1971 allG3956 of youG4771 andG2532 is distressedG85 becauseG1360 you heardG191 he was illG770. 27He was sickG1063G770 indeedG2532, nearlyG3897 unto deathG2288. ButG235 GodG2316 had mercy onG1653 himG846, andG1161 notG3756 onlyG3441 on himG846 butG235 alsoG2532 on meG1473, toG2443 spare meG3361G2192 sorrowG3077 uponG1909 sorrowG3077.

28ThereforeG3767 I am all the more eagerG4708 to sendG3992 himG846, so thatG2443 when you seeG3708 himG846 againG3825 you may rejoiceG5463, and IG2504 may beG1510 less anxiousG253. 29WelcomeG4327 himG846 inG1722 the LordG2962 withG3326 greatG3956 joyG5479, andG2532 honorG2192G1784 menG5108 like him, 30becauseG3754 he nearlyG1448 diedG2288 forG1223 theG3588 workG2041 of ChristG5547, riskingG3851 his lifeG5590 to make up forG378 yourG4771 deficitG5303 ofG3588 serviceG3009 toG4314 meG1473.
