Philippians 2

Darby Bible

1If then [there be] any comfortG3874 in ChristG5547, if any consolation of loveG26, if any fellowshipG2842 of [the] SpiritG4151, if any bowels and compassions, 2fulfil my joyG5479, that ye may thinkG5426 the sameG846 thingG1520, having the sameG846 loveG26, joined in soul, thinking oneG1520 thingG1520; 3[let] nothingG3367 [be] in the spirit of strife or vain glory, but, in lowliness of mind, each esteeming the otherG240 as more excellent than themselves; 4regarding not each his ownG1438 [qualities], but each those of othersG2087 alsoG2532. 5For let this mindG5426 be in you which [was] alsoG2532 in ChristG5547 JesusG2424; 6who, subsisting in the formG3444 of 1GodG2316, did not esteemG2233 it an object of rapine to beG1510 on an equality with 2GodG2316; 7but emptied himself, takingG2983 a bondman's formG3444, takingG2983 his placeG1096 in [the] likenessG3667 of menG444; 8and having been found in figure as a man, humbledG5013 himself, becomingG1096 obedientG5255 even unto deathG2288, and [that the] deathG2288 of [the] crossG4716. 9Wherefore alsoG2532 3GodG2316 highly exalted him, and grantedG5483 him a nameG3686, that which is above every nameG3686, 10that at the nameG3686 of JesusG2424 every kneeG1119 should bowG2578, of heavenlyG2032 and earthlyG1919 and infernal [beings], 11and every tongueG1100 confessG1843 that JesusG2424 ChristG5547 [is] LordG2962 to 4GodG2316 [the] Father's gloryG1391. 12So that, my belovedG27, evenG2532 as ye have alwaysG3842 obeyedG5219, not as in my presenceG3952 onlyG3440, but nowG3568 muchG4183 ratherG3123 in my absence, workG2716 out your ownG1438 salvationG4991 with fearG5401 and trembling, 13for it isG1510 5GodG2316 who worksG1754 in you both the willingG2309 and the workingG1754 according to [his] goodG2107 pleasureG2107. 14Do all thingsG3956 without murmurings and reasonings, 15that ye may be harmless and simple, irreproachable childrenG5043 of 6GodG2316 in the midstG3319 of a crookedG4646 and pervertedG1294 generationG1074; among whom ye appearG5316 as lights in [the] worldG2889, 16holding forth [the] wordG3056 of lifeG2222, so as to be a boastG2745 for me in Christ's dayG2250, that I have not runG5143 in vainG2756 nor laboured in vainG2756. 17But if alsoG2532 I am pouredG4689 out as a libation on the sacrificeG2378 and ministration of your faithG4102, I rejoiceG5463, and rejoiceG5463 in common with you all. 18In like manner do ye alsoG2532 rejoiceG5463, and rejoiceG5463 with me. 19But I hopeG1679 in [the] LordG2962 JesusG2424 to sendG3992 Timotheus to you shortly, that I alsoG1161 may be refreshed, knowingG1097 how ye get on. 20For I have no oneG3762 like-minded who will care with genuine feeling how ye get on. 21For all seekG2212 their ownG1438 thingsG3956, not the thingsG3956 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547. 22But ye knowG1097 the proofG1382 of him, that, as a childG5043 a fatherG3962, he has servedG1398 with me in the work of the glad tidings. 23Him thereforeG3767 I hopeG1679 to sendG3992 immediatelyG1824, as soon as I shall see howG5613 it goes with me: 24but I trustG3982 in [the] LordG2962 that I myself alsoG2532 shall soonG5030 comeG2064; 25but I have thought it necessaryG316 to sendG3992 to you EpaphroditusG1891, my brotherG80 and fellow-workman and fellow-soldier, but your messengerG652 and ministerG3011 to my needG5532, 26since he had a longingG1971 desire after you all, and wasG1510 distressed because ye had heardG191 that he wasG1510 sickG770; 27for he was alsoG2532 sickG770 close to deathG2288, but 7GodG2316 had mercyG1653 on him, and not indeed on him aloneG3441, but alsoG2532 on me, that I might not have sorrowG3077 upon sorrowG3077. 28I have sentG3992 him thereforeG3767 the more diligently, that seeingG3708 him ye might againG3825 rejoiceG5463, and that I might beG1510 the less sorrowful. 29ReceiveG4327 him thereforeG3767 in [the] LordG2962 with all joyG5479, and holdG2192 suchG5108 in honour; 30because for the sakeG1223 of the workG2041 he drew near even to deathG2288, venturing his lifeG5590 that he might fillG378 up what lacked in your ministration toward me.
