Philippians 4:10-18
10But I rejoiced in the Lord greatly, that now at last 1you have revived your concern for me; indeed, you were concerned before, but you lacked an opportunity to act. 11Not that I speak 2from need, for I have learned to be 34content in whatever circumstances I am. 12I know how to get along with little, and I also know how to live in prosperity; in any and every circumstance I have learned the secret of being filled and going 5hungry, both of having abundance and 6suffering need. 13I can do all things 7through Him who 8strengthens me. 14Nevertheless, you have done well to 9share with me in my difficulty.
15You yourselves also know, Philippians, that at the 1011first preaching of the gospel, after I left 12Macedonia, no church 13shared with me in the matter of giving and receiving except you alone; 16for even in 14Thessalonica you sent a gift more than once for my needs. 1715Not that I seek the gift itself, but I seek the 16profit which increases to your account. 18But I have received everything in full and have an abundance; I am 17amply supplied, having received from 18Epaphroditus 19what you have sent, 2021a fragrant aroma, an acceptable sacrifice, pleasing to God.
