Philippians 4:1-9
1Therefore, my beloved brothers and sisters, 1whom I 2long to see, my joy and crown, 3stand firm in the Lord in this way, my beloved.
2I urge Euodia and I urge Syntyche to 45live in harmony in the Lord. 3Indeed, true 6companion, I ask you also, help these women who have shared my struggle in the cause of the gospel, together with Clement as well as the rest of my 7fellow workers, whose 8names are in the book of life.
49Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice! 5Let your gentle spirit be known to all people. 10The Lord is 11near. 612Do not 13be anxious about anything, but in everything by 14prayer and pleading with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. 7And 15the peace of God, which surpasses all 16comprehension, will 17guard your hearts and 18minds in 19Christ Jesus.
8Finally, brothers and sisters, 20whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is 21lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, think about these things. 9As for the things you have learned and received and heard and seen 22in me, practice these things, and 23the God of peace will be with you.
